Spitfire Mk.5b - Soviet Supermarine

Still a weird idea, they received new Merlin Engines and Parts for their aircraft through lend lease program, so even if they received airframes with older engines they were always able to swap them.

I’m sure this is also true for tanks, trucks and vessels.

completely unnecessary the russians dont need a spit for lend lease yall already have yaks at these brs that are mind numbly easy to fly well you dont need any of britains spit fires

-1 copy paste premiums dont belong in game

It’s not about needs but wants, it’s a historic piece that took its place in the Soviet arsenal, would sit great in a 4.7 line up with the T-34-57 (both), Su-100Y and a Soviet Churchill.

no one else gets wants in there tree but russia so no

What?

its only russia that gets massive amounts of stuff they dont need like hanomag 45 for example millions of GAZ AAs but they go and give them a german SPAA

“If i can get what i want you can’t either” XD

yeah it keeps it fair for all trees

You have no proof this even exists

What are you even talking about

it quite literally does if it was the way you wanted half of italian and france ground would be in the german tree

Are you ok

You seem a bit off

Like what are you talking about

He’s arguing trophy vehicles from the post-armistice from Italy and the occupation of France which I personally don’t like to put in the same category as leased equipment, I don’t think Gaijin does either since they tend to add lease vehicles every so often and deleted tons of captured assets from the CDK years back, though those are added less frequently than leased equipment still.

I only like the captured stuff that was used in combat

So i don’t want a British Tiger 1 or US Tiger 2 but do want a British Panther G early (Like the French premium)

lend lease was only a ALLY thing i would consider it the closest thing possible for AXIS side

What stealing each other’s equipment XD

Understandable, I’m on the same page realistically.

well it wasnt stealing as they used them mostly in france with over 500 vehicles of the S35 in use for example
Panzerkampfwagen 35S 739(f) - Tank Encyclopedia

or the H39

I’m all for Germany getting captured equipment it used in combat, I never said I was against it.

For this particular plane I would +1 since at least the radio direction finder was changed and maybe in something like Sim battles it could be a unique variant there.
