Tbh, a sub tree like this would actually suck! There’s no point in adding a sub tree for Japan anyways. So -1!
idk dude, is there any source regarding the armor to back it off? seems a bit too weird overall
But… it’s a subtree proposal for Israel…?
The armor is classified, but images and sources can tell us what we need to know about it.
Would you like some links my friend? (I can grab them tmrw, gotta hit the hay rn)
yeah could be cool i would like to read and see more about this
Twitter thread I found highly interesting. Not a sources, but it has most things right and should give you a rough idea about it.

An interesting thread regarding the Mk.4/Mk.3 armor.
Current threads relating to the Merkava Mk.4’s weight and armor inaccuracies.
Highly recommend reading through the Merkava forums threads, as some of the people who are a part of the threads have even served on these vehicles, while others are extremely familiar with them. You’ll se a thing or two in there you might not see elsewhere.

(Edit: couldn’t sleep, :P)
It seems to me like a pretty cool subtree mostly made up of unique vehicles, how would it suck?
The suggestion is about Israel. Japan is only brought up here for rumors that it will be added there, not because that’s what’s been suggested here.
Worst take ive seen in my life but ok
how would it suck? it’s also not for japan?
Singapore im fine with it’s vehicles in game but thailand is basically the furthest possible that can be given to japan due to ww2(and likely it will just give japan more copy paste chinese and american vehicles)
Singapore can be put either in china or israel in my opnion
But thailand is basically the only sub tree we can put in japan that is societally acceptable
Wait for Israel…?
Japan should get a South Korean Sub Tree though
You might need to go re-read the suggestion, it is indeed a suggestion post for adding Singapore as a subtree to Israel, not Japan (like the rumors about it being added to Japan are suggesting).
As a Singaporean Israel is imo the best tree for a singapore sub but tbh i won’t mind japan i guess the type 10 with leopards would be cool but NO CHINA. Plus there already some sources say singapore (and other asean nations) is gonna end up in japan so yeah :/
United Korea tree would go so hard though…
I feel embarrassed now…
I actually changed my mined a Singapore sub tree that would be great. Only if it was for Israel!
Thailand actually has a lot of unique modifications, some nice domestic developments and Ukrainian vehicles would also be nice to see in game. It is very easy for Gaijin to avoid unnecessary copy paste, despite what people like to say.
Israel does seem like the most logical choice, but China doesn’t quite make sense to me. Singapore is a very a very western aligned nation that was even cleared for the F-35, so it seems weird to put them with PRC, Japan is at least also aligned with the west.
While Singapore does have good relations with ROC, but the same goes for Thailand, which is likely going to a Japanese tree, so overall Japan seems far more logical than China. Individually Israel still seems like a better choice, but as part of an SEA subtree as rumors say Japan does come as a close second and would be a good choice if Gaijin has an alternate option for Israel planned

On a more serious note neither of us should really be arguing about what is “socially acceptable” for a country we don’t live in. We better stick to the facts relevant to the game and leave it up to Singaporeans to say what’s acceptable or not
Singapore is more of a rather neutral nation
and i genuinely don’t see the point in putting it in japan
It’s also ethically chinese and indian, so seems more logical in either china or a possible future indian tree tbh
either way i would like to see singaporean vehicles in game for any TT, israel or china is just most logical in my opnion, im fine if you disagree as long as singapore gets added
