Israel shouldn’t have been added. They were fine being event vehicles and premiums. Now we have more or less an M48 tree and even then a minisubtree for the US would have been better and much more enjoyable

Which is why it would work as part of a regional tree. Instead of the whole sub tree nonsense, filling marginal trees with more copy and paste, they could add the unique vehicles to a regional tree and fill it out that way.
I agree. The more trees they add, the worse it gets.
the air tree is a good mix tho, that one definitely deserves to be standalone
If you mean a regional tree as in “nordic nations”, then I agree actually.
Gaijin has said that norwegian vehicles will only be premiums for now, because Finland is the subtree.
I’d much prefer a bunch of interesting unique vehicles from all the nordic countries rather than sticking to only finland and giving us 100% copy paste
Gaijin already struggles giving every nation the needed vehicles (and resort to c&p). It can only get worse
That’s what I mean. No T80, no Mi28, no King Tiger. Just the unique vehicles that they built or used.
F-2 with AAM-4s would make it a late variant though…unless they go non historical

I don’t think C&P is going away, sadly.
It’s simply a matter of “work invested” vs “payoff”
A new and unique vehicle needs 3D model, animations, flight model and so on.
A C&P is a new skin, and in most cases it pays Gaijin the same as a unique vehicle would.
yes but these planes could have been in the US and french tree. You can’t fly a lineup in air rb so it wouldnt make that much sense to only add the air tree
you would think gaijin would hire more designers after warthunder gets more and more players and more money in general due to higher priced top tier premiums
Why do that when you could instead do the bare minimum and pocket the difference?
Ofc I agree with you, but the above is probably what’s going on.
Maybe the bare minimum is too harsh, I respect much of the work the devs have done, but what I really mean is not expanding. They should invest more in creating content.

The late service F-2 would at least give us J/APG-2 and finally some proper CAS.
8x L-JDAM using Sniper Pod hehehe

would be interesting to see the revenue and winnings over the years but I don’t think gaijin has public numbers
I hope we get sniper pod sooner rather than later. If Britain is stuck with Gen 1 TIALDs for all eternity. Its gunna suck
Aren’t the F-16C and MiG-29 SMT both from like 2006?

planes like the F-4 Ice, mig21 (if it gets fox 3) and Harrier will get fucked. At least we can hope they are not the same br (although they probably will get dragged up to these)
Yep, FA2 is gunna be a hell of a lot of fun, if its Br 12.0 and no higher than 12.3.
If its the same BR as the Su-27SM…
Top tier is dead for me and i’ll be in the FRS1e, if playing the game at all
which one was the first one?
