US army thing explaining the AIM in US inventory

Saying that Australia builds Boxers for Germany, they could get that, plus Britain got a Boxer model passed with a CT40 on it

that’s rich coming from you, Mr.WeNeedEveryVersionOfTheEagle.

Thats not a picture with US crew is it, in inventory doesn’t mean operated

I think gaijins probably sees the problems it will cause if AU or CAN go to any specific nation and have decided to just split it for the time. At that point Gaijin shpuld just add them to both nations like theyve done with other nations vehicles

ive proven each and every one has been in possesion of and flown by the USAF, except for the F-15K

Also thats a US only AIM, not an Australian one

I’m not sure they’d be half as much of an issue as giving India to Britain already has been

its still an M1A1 AIM. sure, they use different armor array since DU was specifically asked to not be there by Australia apparently, and different shell for the same reason. outside of those two things theyre the same tank

Yknow what i didn’t see there, Australia, no mention of it at all

but they’re not exactly frontline service aircraft, they’re for testing and training, nothing more.

I mean how would export customers train pilots otherwise

Because it isnt an Australian tank

Yet the one in game is, hence the Australian flag, sooo, are you saying that shouldn’t be in the US tree either since the US never used that version

But it is in game, that’s the issue, a generic one under the US flag is not the same as it specifically being the Australian one

still is more than enough for US addition, paired with the fact that none of the operators are subtrees, by default should go to US

@Rennie1018129
The M1A1 AIM series of tanks were made at request of the United States Marine command. Army doubled down on M1A2 series.

There were exported AIMs as well, and in-game we see one of those exported AIMs.

Tbf this wouldn’t be as big of a problem had SA and India not been added. Unfortunately they were so i understand why a lot of people see the UK as a gluttonous group but again gaijin added 2 other nations which have helped filled out Britain fairly well. I don’t think AU or CAN aircraft should come for a while until the UK actually needs them but as it stands rn UK doesn’t need an F18 and they have some of the largest selections of Rank 8 vehicles (i domt count prem/event)

He’s saying that it’s an American built tank and since Australia is not a subtree, the tank belongs in the US tree

I mean, the reason they shouldn’t be added is that it will bloat the hell out of the US air tree, having 20 different versions of the Eagle to research, often not even increasing in BR
