Can we get the SIAI Marchetti S-211 in the Italian TT, it would be around 6.3, give or take, and would give Italy an actual low-br jet, and there is a perfect gap for it between the IL-10 and MB-326K. It would be a good addition both for A2A and CAS with its capabilities. Plus its very smol

Other versions, like the S-211A, AS-211, M-311, and M-345, would also be welcome additions in my opinion

I’ll also add the Aermacchi MB-339CD, would give italy a decent Cas plane with Maverick

Is it still being written, or is it planned to be released on a specific day? (Or are CM just ragebaiting us forum users?)

I will also suggest the addition of the OF-40 MK3, and LMV Lince with starstreak. These would be beneficial for Italy, as they, in addition to the Dardos, would give Italy a 10.0 line-up.

The mk3 has the same turret as the Ariete(P) and a modified OF-40 hull, the same as the palmaria, but with a different engine I think. Give it DM23, and at 10.0 it would have decent firepower and useful armour.

While not much is known about this version of the Lince, it would probably be a decent AA, being fast and probaby capable, I never used starsteaks, so I don’t know if they’re any good

Yup, just later in the week. Subject to change as always.

There is a lot of stuff to add for Italy, my personal hope for the update are props, especially bombers) and maybe some old heavy ships like Regina Elena and Margherita or San Giorgio and Pisa.
