We have flamethrower tanks and even a boat with flamethrowers.
Why not flamethrower planes?
(He-111 and Ju-88 with flame throwers, Not sure what their exact model is though)

Yees.
US makes and operates them
I think pretty much every 64E is JAGM compatible. But Indonesia isn’t really as close to the US as other 64E operators so it could be different
What’s different between the F-15I and the F-15SG? They’re both strike eagles
Oh I just realized the F-15I doesn’t have an aesa, that’s unfortunate
Nope, but there’s a similar one.
Spoiler
(disclaimer: following is a talk from ground PoV)
The the surge in anti-SG-to-China responses came after Chinese community refused VT-4 to Thai subtree. In that way people repudiated the M1A2T addition.
Royal Thai Army uses it, Thai is part of Japan TT. ~ See?
So, now. Similarly, the WT community outside of the Chinese bubble community can go against top of the line Abrams as well.
…
And, the other discussion is that if China do end up getting a ~top of the line NATO MBT M1A2T (I do want it in Chinese TT btw), why they get another in the form of an upgraded Leopard 2 as well?
Especially since we’re talking China here, which is supposed to be self sufficient (both in WT and IRL)

I think the message here is instead that neither of these should be seen as an issue.
As for Singapore, I just want Singaporean feedback to be used to make the decision. As long as this is done I’ll accept the outcome. As long as it’s also not used as an excuse not to fix Chinese vehicles that is
I posted my reasons in the official thread, but not going to here because I feel like this is leading away from the topic.
I could give my two cents on that since I consider myself at least 50% part of the Chinese community, but won’t for the same reason as above
Bottom line: Idc what other people think. I wish for the Singapore vehicles (especially the F-15SG and Leopard 2SG) and the M1A2T in the Chinese TT
The F-15SG gets
- the APG-63(V)3 AESA radar (like you said)
- GE-129 engines instead of PW-229s
- EPAWSS
- MAWS
It would be more on par with the F-15E RMP or F-15EX.
For reference, the F-15E RMP gets
- the APG-82(V)1 AESA radar
- still has PW-229s
- EPAWSS
- no MAWS
And the F-15EX gets
- the APG-82(V)1 AESA radar
- GE-129s instead of PW-229s
- EPAWSS
- no MAWS (yet?) But it does have mounts for sensors
- 12 AAM pylons instead of 8

of which is named the F-15EX, if added it would most likely have a Florida skin ANG skin or something, we already have 2 Oregon air national guard skins as base aircraft skins, unless they do a flight lead skin with the eagle/red hawk actually colored in on the tail
Back to the beginning…Spitfire Mk.I (1938)
A few differences from the Mk.Ia (1940) currently in game.
-
2 blade prop, different speed vs altitude curves
-
no carburetor float, loss of power in sustained negative g.
-
flash suppressors + no wing heating, increased gun jamming
-
no armour, more vulnerable to rear attack
-
flat canopy + unarmoured windscreen, reduced pilot visibility, more vulnerable on head on attacks.
-
no gunsight, ring and bead only, less accurate shooting.

Yeah, about that, look at the state of the italian one, or its premium or it won’t get added
Perfect for a folder!
another possible add to the 76mm Shermans is a researchable muzzle break modification, as we can see in listed images, each Sherman with the M1A1C cannon which is just the M1A1 we have on pretty much every 76mm Sherman without a muzzle break besides the M4A3E2 76 but is threaded to use said muzzle break, honestly its mostly just ethicists thing
although it most likely serve zero purpose, but could be comparable to the VFWs sides being raised or lowered, that and it would be neat allowing US Shermans to be different from the other copy paste ones by allowing them to have a bit more (but functionally no difference to performance) physical customization compared to its other nation counterparts
M4A1 76
M4A3E2
M4A3E8 without muzzle break
also the general Abrams thunderbolt VII Sherman, we already got the decal
i honestly didn’t mind grinding out each Sherman in every tech tree, even though if you check my stats i mainly played the US vehicles in each tech tree or made my lineup centered around said Sherman, i wouldn’t mind another Sherman or 2 to research and spade as long as it has its own unique quirk, the M4A1:base common model, uses aircraft engine
M4: an early hull (small hatch) Sherman modified into late war Sherman with the extra armor plates, with the smooth transition housing, and M3A1 cannon/gun mantle
M4A2: 75 Sherman with enough effective enough to be angled, diesel engine, APCR
M4A3 105: mobile howitzer platform effectively (used to be) low tier heavy tank, ford V8 engine, has HVSS/widened tracks
M4A1 76: unique turret model (one less cupola so was not updated with the other 2)
M4A2 76: highest top speed for a US Sherman at 29 MPH
M4A3 76: modeled after the E8, has HVSS/widened tracks, 2nd fastest 76 Sherman but don’t often reach the top speed
M4/T26: M4 Sherman with a T26 turret (only found 1 photo of it so far)
M4A3E2: A M4A3 with all around better armor (one of 2 75mm M4A3s in game)
well you get my point, i could go and name things from each Sherman that is actually different for each model/nation but that would be an obscenely long post,
point being, i would effectively like modular Sherman hulls based on the A1s-A3s (being 3.3-4.0 respectively)as well as modular 76mm Shermans, (being 5.0-5.7), the one thing i think WOT does better than war thunder is the demonstration of the Sherman variants, although some pieces not being fielded on the same tank being the T23 turret with the 105mm gun, it still shows off just how customizable these vehicles were, to the point where there was a Sherman for (nearly) every roll
TL;DR: moar shermans/modular Shermans based around the 75 and 76mm turrets respectively to create unholy amalgamations like the M4A3E4 and the M4A1E6 (post war creations but still) could be tested on a dev server or something, and it wouldn’t be entirely (extremely small margin) copy paste and would allow players to make a version of said tank to fit their playstyle

No, I’m talking about F-15SG’s
my bad, theres so many dual letter F-15s veriations based on/off of the F-15EX platform that its hard to keep track, and unless they do add Singapore, i don’t see a reason for it, outside of just adding a more modern F-15E 2007 or newer
The 428th FS operates it
i guess it could turn up as a event vehicle after rank 9/5th gen aircraft get added
