Most F-15 and 14 kills happened in the air forces of smaller countries with far less support the the USAF. So this doesn’t really hold up

You mean the McDonnel Douglas Harrier II which came before the Bae harrier 2?

And the BAE Harrier 1 came before the BAE/McDonnel Douglas modified/upgraded version. The American Harrier IIs still use British built parts, like the engines.

By your logic. AV-8A, AV-8C, AV-8B (NA) and AV-8B+ in the US TT should be in the British TT as they are all Harriers

Harrier 2 is not the same as a Harrier 1. By your logic the F-35 can be lumped in as the same type as a P-38.

Anyways. The AV-8A and C for the countless American aircraft in other trees isn’t a bad trade

The Su-30MKM would unironically be better than the Russian one two which makes it even funnier

John 405 error… when i get my hands on you!

MKI would be better too. I think only MKK might be worse without the upgrades

What are you on about?

I didnt realise the F-35 was just an upgraded version of a twin engine WW2 prop aircraft.

I guess that means the F-15 is based upon this Northrop F-15 Reporter - Wikipedia

Lighting vs Lightning 2

Just like Harrier vs. Harrier 2

Also thatast example doesn’t work, it’s called the Reporter not the Eagle and it isn’t Eagle 1 or 2

So the Lightning 2 uses the same general airframe layout, same engine, same VTOL system, large parts of the same wing, etc etc as the P-38?

Interesting.

Wdym, they changed the airframe, engine and wing area on the Harrier 2 just like Lighting 2

They are not the same plane it’s just a nod to history, there are many major differences

Beavers do indeed meddle with the locals around them.

Hu?

What are you on about.?

Are you saying the Harrier 2 is a 100% American design? Despite using Rolls Royce Engines made in the UK, the exact same VTOL system and RCS system. Same intake fans, etc etc etc. Its still a Harrier.

It was a joint project which is why the US should get US variants and UK can have their variants of the Harrier 2

Nah, its a Harrier. Therefore all harriers should be in the UK tree.

Great, so US can get all its vehicles back

No. US doesn’t need them.

But Britian can get the EAV-8B+ as a radar equipped Harrier II that Britain doesnt get natively.

Like how Japan should get the F-15K as they dont get a F-15E equivalent

Also, Abrams should be added to China via Taiwan and Israel via Kuwait/Iraq

MKK is also the notable one of the bunch for not having Canards.

(I actually prefer how it looks tbh)

Yeah it does, could always use more variety and camos

I don’t get the obsession with stealing US equipment like the McDonnell Douglas Harrier II. Ask for more BAe ones instead, like the Gr9
