If the modifications were made by East Germany, awesome, add it, however if not, then it shouldn’t be added to Germany.
in a museum in germany, an kh-25 air to ground missile is next to a mig-21 as its weapon!

It’s funny because the BMP-1, T-72M1, and Osa/Strela are all at BRs that are also occupied by unique German-made vehicles. Gaijin tried to push Russian copy paste into the German tree and unintentionally showed just how little it actually needed them.

I still wonder if China has any A2G missiles whose flight speed is over 1 Ma, compared to kh38 or AASM, CM-704KG seems too slow, KD-88’s max speed is over 1.3 Ma, but the shoot range makes it can’t be added.
Can anyone here tell me if Romania is officially a subtree for Italy? Or is it one of those cases like the Swiss vehicles where it’s just a place for them to reside?
I honestly welcome east German stuff. As it allows people to make line-ups of just their stuff. (And I typically hate soviet C&P (I got sick of the ZSU spam))
As thematic/historical line-ups have been something even I’ve begun doing and have been enjoying them. So I see why others like doing it.

Gaijin has stated that all minor axis nations are, with only Hungary having been announced on its own. Romania has borderline been confirmed with the Osa and IAR-93B, however.

If they are East German modifications, yes, they are very much welcome, however a T-55AM, for example, where it’s not in any way needed due to its BR already being filled shouldn’t come.
this missile AA-1 Alkali is not in the game yet, and they should add it and east germany had this jet and this missiles and deserve t get it
It’s range is achieved by Man-in-loop ability, which also requires a datalink pod. But it can be operaated without pod as a simple FNF missile. then it’s range won’t matter. It’s seeker will limit it to 12km for moving target and 20km for ground point like every other IR FNF missile. 40km, 100km, 200km, none matters.
The reason for it not added is that it’s only seen in J-10C, not J-10A, but there are information about C-701/704 can be used in J-10A.
As for CM-502, it’s a 25km missile, which means it can reach 12km without Man-in-loop at least, far beyond 8km Heli FNF in game currently. that’s why it’s not added, before gaijin find a way to deal with it’s range problem
But were the mods done by East Germany?
I think the JF-17 can take that, because in DCS already provided it’s export version
Just use QN502 as the alternative version

yes it can
J-10B can be used, it has been shown to be mounted at the air show
BRs already being filled mean nothing to Gaijin. (As they love added redundant vehicles)
Besides if the nation used said vehicle in large numbers(compared to what they had) they should get it, as it was a primary service vehicle for them.
Historical lineups have been one of the most common justifiers I hear for East German vehicles, and I can completely get that. In my opinion, a much better idea would be to create modes based around historical battles that allow vehicles to be pulled from all nations in order to create historical lineups.
For example, a fictional East VS West German standoff mission would allow the user to pull unique DDR vehicles from Germany and Soviet-made stuff from Russia. It would be a grand, but replayable experience that would provide increased rewards and maybe even something new to justify using similiar vehicles over and over.

Or, if the sub nation folders suggestion is implemented, East Germany can be an official German sub nation. That I wouldn’t be opposed to.
