Is Monty Python insufficient?

I might have never seen Monty Python, but them and the Fate series are what I’d thought I’d find a good image from.

taking out domestic additions (gaijin where the hell is my Scorpion 90, or even Saladins)

British Equivalents to Subtree vehicles

SARC Mk.IV - Staghound Mk.I
SARC Mk.VI 2pr - AEC Mk.I
SARC Mk.VI 6pr - Staghound Mk.III / AEC Mk.III
Concept 3 - T18E2 Boarhound/Saladin (not the best fit)
Ratel 90 - Saladin 90
Ratel 20 - Ferret Mk.V Swingfire (Not a great match, none other come to my head, that 20mm is near useless anyway)
Olifant Mk.1 - Vickers Retrofit Centurion (1980)
Olifant Mk.2 - Vickers Valiant (Mk.4)
TTD - Challenger Mk.1/MBT-80 ATR2
Bosvark - the wheely thing with dual 20mms, i forget what it is, maybe a Valkyr
Eland 90 - Scorpion 90 (depends what it gets, i forget)

All other sub tree vehicles already have their equivalent in the tech tree bar Badger off of the top of my head (not a great vehicle anyway)

Shouldn’t the British vehicle be the main vehicle and the third party vehicle the sub vehicle though?

Coz, you know, it’s the British tree? Why is the Tornado even being foldered in the first place when there is plenty of room in the tree?

The only reason the rank of these Tornados is being reduced is painfully obvious, Gaijin just doesn’t want us to be able to use these planes to research rank IX planes. That’s a pretty anti-player thing to do ngl

the MECAR “90/46”/KEnerga Mark 8 gun gets APFSDS as one of it’s main selling points, loosely comparable to the 76mm APFSDS on the Rooikat Mk.1D. Would probably be 7.7-8.0.

Scorpion 90 gets Stab and LRF, late models get on top of that APFSDS & Thermals. Would probably be 8.3-9.0

The Vicker Valkyr H.20? That has search and track radar. Closer would be the Scorpion S530

I mean to be fair any other additions from them would be BRs/Ranks below the Gripen.

So if this is just focusing on stuff on stuff the can be adding in the spaces in the screen shot then it makes sense but if it everything then ya missing South Africa is a problem.

To be fair, the SARC was adopted by the British

I mean, the Olifants are upgraded Centurions, so I feel like they have a place in the British TT even without ZA being a subtree

Can’t get that (or the Impala, Mwari or any of South Africas Mirage F1s), gotta get copy paste from various other nations instead

Can’t believe it took so long to get a Scimmie, so ZA air (and scorps) is probably going to be another when did I start playing again, May 2019? Scimmie was added October 2024, call that 5 years, already been a year since scimme give or take so, 4 years? At least by this logic we’ll have both Scorps and the Cheetah by 2034!

Gaijin is a masterclass at adding only what is popular and will sell for short term numbers, instead of investing wisely in what will bring long term numbers. It’s basically a rug pull that exists for many years before occurring. In the future they will definitely try to sell the idea of a “War Thunder 2”, because War Thunder 1 was ran into the ground by poor investment and bad decision making.

It’s only been two years since South Africa made its debut in the British air tree, give Gaijin some slack!

I don’t know fighter aircraft 10.0 - 11.3 but big gap between Hunter F.6 and F-4M Phantom FGR.2

Tornado F.2A before Tornado F.3

UK tech tree none aussie Mirage III

India can make a whole 4 lines tree so it’s really as they like tbh
Then can fill as much as they want to
