No rank 3? Yes. No rank 3 vehicles? That however is wrong. The Sakeen is very much a rank 3 plane. And there’s enough room in rank 4 to add more planes
Same with the mentioned TCM-20 that too more or less rank 3
(psst proton vpn is pretty dope, and you get encrypted cloud and email)
Why is that? There is a suggestion and several discussions showing that Israel could easily have a rank 1-3, why is this something that hasn’t been prioritized?
That’s a very good question. Israel is unpopular precisely because it lacks ranks I-III. This should be a priority before adding the subtrees of Greece and Cyprus to Israel.
It’s probably also unpopular because it’s mostly copypaste until higher ranks and can’t rely on a large national community either.
Greece will happen way sooner because it lets Gaijin copypaste top tier, and those last 3 words are Gaijin’s favourite things
The Mosquito B.Mk.XVI uses the Merlin 77, which provides slightly less power ingame
Other than that you are right, they all use the Merlin 25
(The Mosquito FB.Mk.26 uses the Packard Merlin 225, but that’s just a licensed production of the Merlin 25)
The only Mosquito variant with a more powerful engine that I am aware of is the Australian built Mosquito FB.Mk.42 with its Merlin 69 engines
Hey smin could we see a German bmp1a1 soon since it’s already in Sweden
At the moment, as I said, there are no plans for a Rank III for the forseeable future. The focus will be on filling Isreals existing gaps within its current ranks.
Isn’t that just a BMP-1 without the ATGM launcher?
Its not something planned in the close future. Thats for sure. Other vehicles are currently planned for Germany. But perhaps someday.
Unfortunately but hopefully soon
Having a good evening Smin?
Truth, forgot about the squadron Mosquito!
I was just comparing the T-72B3 Arena to the TT T-72B3 and was very confused about the BR difference until I saw the UBH modification on the TT T-72B3
Why is that even a modification and not a seperate vehicle in-game?
Trying to spade the TT T-72B3 must be a huge pain until you unlock that mod lol
Thats precisely why I said no Rank III and did not say No rank III vehicles.
The Sakeen has seen several BR decreases from when it was first introduced, but its a key aircraft for Isreal that’s currently unique to them.
As I mentioned, its possible a Mosqutio may find its way in the future in some form. Perhaps not in the standard tree, or perhaps it will if ranks change. Just currently, it doesn’t fill a BR lineup gap and doesnt have a good rank fit.
So for now, its not something planned for the close future.

I like where this is going
I guess Sakeen is currently unique to them even though it was sent to them by Czechoslovakia
*Then add them to the USSR : )
