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

F-15 STOL/MTD as sqv then? if it could carry weapons ofc.

if not, maybe the F-15SR

That is true, but you know how Gaijin is.

Sure, unique stuff deserves to be added and if it is something from a nation that isn’t a main or sub tree, it should go to the nation that makes the most sense (history, help with development, political relationship, etc).

If War Thunder was still a plane-only game there could have been the possibility of having a international tree for all the stuff that doesn’t have a home otherwise, but that doesn’t work with the game having ground trees as well.

If a nation has enough vehicles there would be the possibility of it becoming its own tree, but judging by Gaijins stance on India the chances of that happening for any nation seem to be pretty slim (despite their apparent plans to add more trees).

This is what people have been asking for. I am not in any way claiming that all nations in the world should have their TT in WT. It is clear that we are talking about those nations that do not have the potential to have their own TT but at the same time have the potential to be a small TT (in short, the concept of subtree was an invention of Gaijin, not ours. We just think it can be implemented better.

I still don’t understand why WT hasn’t leveraged the implementation of minor nations’ vehiclds more effectively. The idea of adding pages/tabs is great.

Take India as an example: It’s being added as a British subtree (as they’re doing now), but instead of relying on event and premium c&p vehicles, it should be placed on a dedicated page/tab within the British tech tree.

Start with an initial batch of vehicles—mostly C&P variants, but including some indigenous designs (similar to how subtrees are introduced in major updates). Over time, new content could be added incrementally. Meanwhile, players interested in India could build lineups using British vehicles alongside the Indian subtree. Eventually, if the Indian tree grows large enough and has potential, it could become independent (though this is optional).

This approach would preserve space in the British tech tree for its own unique vehicles while consolidating foreign/related vehicles into a single organized section.

Most major nations that develop their own weapons are already in the game. For smaller nations, they could be incorporated as separate pages/tabs under nations they share historical, industrial, or regional ties with.

I would like to clarify that this is not a personal request, it is a general request from many people in this community. Also, the customization options are crap and the content in the marketplace is not even well indexed and is very limited.

if you look closely at the missile rail, you can see the missile rail for the Shafrir 2 too, not for the Magic-1 only, let me remember you that the Nesher its a Mirage 5 completly made in israel and also argentina adquired Neshers renaming them to IAI Dagger/Finger.

I’ve found this one, but the tail number is off by a single digit

we live in a day and age where you apparently have to ask NASA to distinguish a retouched photo from reality

It’s the actual 2/3D nozzle test bed (71-0290), not sure it retained the weapons computer as it was never used for weapons trials, just flight trials.

I mean, even if it did retain that stuff, I couldn’t imagine Gaijin adding it.


It 's the Mirage 5f.

of course its a mirage 5, the nesher its a mirage 5 too XD and this camo

was made for the Nesher and in the blog they made for the moment of valour of argentina they first said that the Nesher was going to recive this camo but it didnt appear on it and also didnt go for the 5F too, soo… the speculations begun sometime ago about a possible argentinean subtree for israel thing that have much probabilities of happening in the next months i think.

this camo is not ingame, you cant see it, you cant buy it, you cant chose it brother.
the only one its in game right now is this one

It looks like the Nesher, hopefully we’ll see the Dagger one day. In files, the date says 07/09, it’s the Argentine independence day and the day of Moments of Valor. This must be the Dagger skin, announced for the Nesher that they posted on the web and was never delivered.

Mate, what @Motherhen357-psn is trying to tell you is that in the files the camo is attached to the Mirage 5F currently.

in the files, but not ingame soo… the camo didnt go pass that because gaijin seems to have other intentions much likely.

They are not. The top one is a edited photo of tail number 291, which was never modified in that manner.
The 2nd plane is serial number 290, which hasn’t been photographed with weapons.
