Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

It’s a guess, but if we assume what you’re saying is true then that would make its addition to the UK more like the German Hunter, and we could reasonably take it as evidence for Australia becoming a future British Subtree.

You know, while we’re speculating

F-111A body with F-111D avionics and FB-111 landing gear, with modified bomb bay

So in this case just a few flight model tweaks then

eh, itd be pretty noticeably different.

landing gear and bomb bay would be visually different and idk if there are any good specifics about what that looked like/weighed

Yeah I mean these changes gaijin could do in house, but yeah it’s just frustrating different rules for different trees

i can give you a gathering of like 10 statements of Smin saying canada and australia are in fact not subtrees. it was never given to the UK.
Uk only received indiginous australian vehicles until now, import vehicles like the abrams went to the US.
F-111C is an exception which doesnt count because it was a pity addition cause the F-111K was never finished.

As of right now any other australian import vehicles like kf41 (which they even declined in the trials) tiger, ah-64 would go to their developer nation.
The australian boxer could go to germany and Uk out of the single reason germany has the same variant themself already in service. The australian one possibly being a squad or premium.
The australian redback could go to UK as well, cause korea isnt a thing yet in war thunder either.

TLDR: australia and canada arent subtrees only their indiginous stuff was only ever added to the UK

i cant think of any examples like this outside of sweden heli tree and japan air/ground, but yeah it would be pretty cool to have a 111K. it coudlve gone nicely with an F-111D

it was a pity because the F-111K wasnt possible. officialy stated as such.
Its a bone gajin threw to UK

Most of which were already there a long time ago and are unique vehicles, which were always going to go to Britain.

As of now for the not unique stuff, it’s 1 for Britain and 1 for the US.

Clearly it’s because the people there don’t know how to use candles ~they bombed the damn supplying power to it(it was in Quebec)~

It’s just a worse 111F at the same BR, so no it likely just wouldn’t be added.

AGM-142 ring a bell?

it gets power from its own power plant in DC so idk what your going on about

Is that in game? No

Is there any indication of it coming to the game anytime soon? Also no

So again, just a worse 111F at the same BR. Likely would just be skipped if it wasn’t added to the british tree.

i think it couldve been added later with the full weapons loadout but sure

I’m well aware, however if Australia in particular is ever added as a subtree, it couldn’t reasonably be to anyone but Britain at this point, so when we talk about the addition of Australian Hornets for example, the only place they make sense is Britain, given that the US doesn’t need Identical vehicles to what it has in its own tree.

If you have a read of the Australian Lynx suggestion, you’ll see that I’m fiercely against that being added to the UK, not because it’s a German vehicle, but because Australia never adopted it, like you said the Redback would make much more sense.

Like I said, there is an argument that could be made for Canada, but then the only other sensible option is the US, who even with no subtrees has more vehicles than the UK and its subtrees combined, so there is no argument for adding Canada to the US over the UK if we’re adding them at all, and if we’re not adding them then there is no place for most of their vehicles anyways and they shouldn’t be added.

or just added as skins for US F/A-18A, or even event vehicle with the ASRAAM for US (which we helped integrate onto their hornets)
