Thailand also ordered AH-6i, which could be added, no top tier though. Maybe COIN aircraft are an option in the future (AT-6TH).

And why do you think that they should be adding more helis to the nations with stacked heli trees then?
because we have a ton of unqiue helicopters and tiltrotor to add?
and how is that different to anyone else?

Yeah I added it but I wasn’t sure on what it either one will be equipped with. Would be a fun little add if its similar in armament to the US version. I just don’t know enough about the deal.
there are way more US ones. any equality in suggestion amount can be summed up to minor nation players really focusing in on variants
we have like 3 naval blackhawks to add without really getting picky with variants
AH-64E from british army it’s version 6 standard
AH-64E (Early) (version 1 or version 4) for USA tech tree before AH-64E Late (version 6.5)
But gajin might add AGM-114L on US army AH-64D before AH-64E (Early)
Not ready this year, or gajin not add AH-64E Late with JAGM-ER and AH-64Ai with SPIKE NLOS until 2027 or 2028
And? Why does that mean the US should get a monolopy on helicopter additions?
And other nations have loads of variants of other vehicles that could be added, but they aren’t being added for various reasons.
Just because there is stuff left to be added doesn’t mean they are gonna add it anytime soon, or at all.
i never said it should? just that it deserves to continue to have helis added in the next updates. most of the US helis will probably end up in other trees also anyways
iirc they ordered AGM-114R as well as APKWS.

and again. They add very very few helis per update. Sometimes only 1. What is being asked for is that the minor nations that have tiny trees compared to the US get prioritised first. US has 11 TT, 4 premium and 1 SQV. Japan has 4 TT and 1 premium. Britain has 5 TT, 2 premium and 1 SQV. The US already has about double the number of helis a lot of other nations have. At the rate they add helis, they would need to not add a single heli to the US or USSR tree for the next few years for everyone else to catch up

I’m just looking forward to get railed in the F-18 by all these current 13.7s and 14.0s
and those issues could be solved with adding US helicopters since a lot of nations use them like Japan.
i dont see the issue with US and USSR having more helis ingame when both had more types of helis irl

Speaking of APKWS, I wonder who’s all gonna purchase the IR Homing version of the rockets
Thanks for pointing out your viewpoint.
“license-built is C&P unless the US builds it”
9/10 the nation-building the vehicle themselves will make modifications unique to it, yes the vehicle will still belong to the same Family, and if you want to argue vehicle family makes whos vehicle it is, better be ready to give up a bunch of vehicles whose family is domestic/original to other nations.

look into AV-8B. you will see it was a joint project, so neither company is really license building it
and yeah you have a point about some changes with italian hueys, however what is even different between a CF-18 and F-18? they are almost the exact same iirc
probably the US
