Also, tons of controversy, e.g. Why can Russia get the Su-47 but Britain can’t get the EAP.

Lol who gave you this info, stop this nonsense.

[someweirdname]

Su-47 was Leaked as Possible this year

[Mytho-GR1]

Still waiting on the MKI

Might get it with the Arjun shown on the 2026 decal

@Smin1080p_WT

The NF II and J30 dedicated night figters with different modifications

Do we have night battles in air where they have an advantage?

@Smin1080p_WT

Also by your own logic here, some of the many Japanese vehicle variants you personally ask for time and time again are also worthless? Because “they all play the same”?

All the Japanese vehicles i’ve been wanting, are because we lack such capable options in the current tree.
Super props, push pull, Strike aircraft, dubbel engine props, most produced WWII bombers, night fighters, guided WWII munitions for the TT, more munition types, all those models haven’t been introduced yet.
While also not having anything with an equal playstyle. E.g.Ki-94-I

I am aware and i am in those servers, leaked doesnt mean coming. Its dumb to think that way, R-27EA was leaked several times, other jets as well, never came. Just cuz something gets leaked, does not mean its coming or its 100% accurate.

Like he said. “Rarely wrong” but you can be.

Understandable, I’m not really a fan of grinding Tornado again and again for better loadouts, would rather see some propeller-driven stuff for lower tiers, but I guess some people enjoy it.
Although recent Aermacchi additions was a huge win, big thanks to Nova ;)

@Grzegames

I conducted a study and the last Japanese vehicles of WWII for the Tech Tree were the Mitsubishi A6M5 Hei and the Ro-Go Exp., which appeared in the Update 2.5 “Ixwa Strike” on March 10, 2021. That was 1,776 days ago. Is that considered too short a time by Gaijin to wait for a new vehicle? Do we have to wait 2,000 days, 3,000 days, or maybe 5,000 days? (I’m not counting the M36, because although they are WWII vehicles, for Japan their history only begins in the years after 1954. If you count the M36, which was added on June 15, 2022, in Update 2.17 “Danger Zone,” then the last Japanese WWII ground vehicle was added 1,314 days ago).

These are the last WW2 vehicles for Japan. I could check all the countries, but I don’t have time today.

[StormRyder13]

Watching the forums’ meltdown when it gets added (considering basically every tree can get it) will be fun.

[Rowiek]

Yeah… Grinding the F-104, F-84G, IL-28, F-86, G.91 and the MiG-17’s are just soooo boring… Like, over and over again. That’s why i’m stuck at italy air, because i really, really don’t want to play them again.

@Rowiek

Thats never been a barrier for any other Nightfighters in game. Functionally they are different. More radar armed ww2 vehicles have been asked for too.

@Rowiek

All the Japanese vehicles i’ve been wanting, are because we lack such capable options in the current tree.

Many of the types you have asked for previously have also been variants of exisitng types. Lets please not pretend you never have before.

[Smin1080p_WT]

@YaSen

Understandable, I’m not really a fan of grinding Tornado again and again for better loadouts,

Thats more than fair if the Tornados are not for you, but many people suggested and requested the variants we added.

But there will hopefully be some cool things for you to come.

@YaSen

Although recent Aermacchi additions was a huge win, big thanks to Nova ;)

Indeed, they did a great job!

[someweirdname]

Can't wait for PzH M7

[Dontkev-psn]

Gaijin name: M7
Take it or leave it

Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

Not just that, but very important prototypes are missing as well, like the Nakajima LB-2 , Ki-93-I Kō , Kawasaki Ki-64 , Tachikawa Ki-74 , Tachikawa Ki-106 Hayate , Mansyū Ki-98 , Mansyū Ki-116, Mansyū Ki-71 and Kawasaki Ki-60 Same for production aircraft like the Mitsubishi Ki-46 , Mitsubishi G3M , Mansyū Ki-79 Kō and Aichi S1A1 Denko

We don’t have a single model in game yet, not even a derivative.

[Grzegames]

Pss… you know it’s not a Ki-98, but a mockup of a Ki-94-I…

[Rowiek]

i know, Ki-98 mansyu is the one with the guns in the nose. I always confuse these two, imma fix it.

[Smin1080p_WT]

@Rowiek

That wasn’t in question. You can find examples from all nations. Japan is not unique there.

We continue to still add unique WW2 vehicles over each year across multiple nations.

[Rowiek]

I don’t know why, but i always mix these two up.

[Rowiek]

@Smin1080p_WT

Can’t wait for one of my requested vehicles to be added!
Especially after 10 years of waiting!

[Grzegames]

In exactly 40 days, we’ll be celebrating five years without a single Japanese plane in the WW2 Tech Tree. The same goes for tanks, except for the JSDF vehicles (M16 and M36). So many additions in the last five years.
