Gives veterans something unique and also makes the game more accessible for new players, your average person choosing a new tech tree will NOT be choosing Japan for some obscure planned jet bomber, replacing it with a well known strike aircraft, followed by a line of recognisable aircraft under the thai flag will draw more people to choose japan, increasing it’s playerbase as well
Not even gonna read the rest
Your choice, just known that you are making yourself look a bit silly
So obviously I’m not complaining but not a singe mention of ASEAN is slightly worrying
F-84G
Alpha Jet A
Alpha Jet TH (Phase 1) can use up too 4 sidewinder missiles (wow what a difference)
F-5A
F-5T SCU “Tigris” similar to the FCU we have in the tech tree
AV-8S (Late)
A-7E
F-16A Block 15 OCU
JAS39C Gripen
It’d be hilarious if Gaijin actually end up adding Pzh 2000 for Germany before the Hummel
…
Gaijin still haven’t added all the WW2 or post-War vehicles but already incorporating latest vehicles (not talking bout Pzh2K here)
I didn’t think it was going bankrupt, it just had huge cost overruns and missing deadlines on their last big contract and government was weary. Plus Lockheed showed up with a missile ready plane to demonstrate, where Northrop had the arguably better plane with regards to their contract desires.
From what I’ve read on it, it was basically a combo of the pissed budget people from the last big Northrop contract, the weapons ready on f22 and apparently apparently yf23 looking rough, like how engines leaked on sr71 until it heated up and sealed itself type deal(or soemthing like that). But I remember over the stories I’ve read, the yf23 was faster outright(and on cruise) and stealthier, but f22 may have been more agile.
In the end we’ll never know. It’s all hearsay.
asean seems to be an iffy topic with gaijin, they dont seem to mind thailand for japan but those leaks in september have set a worrying precendet for the future of singapore and malaysia (likely going to china at this rate)
(My dreams of Flankers in the Japanese tree are quickly fading)

Japan should get majority of ASEAN … das simple
Yeah, how silly to want content that already is in the game to be available to everyone
Love me all this FOMO and blocking of content
Personally I’m all for an F-15SG simce china is my favourite air tree but I doubt many will like that lol
Singapore afaik HATE China
feels soo weird and icky …
So all event vehicles should be made public now?
Most of south asia do, similarly to how ex-warsaw pact states hate russia
Have you never played japan before?
Every single one of those aircraft can be used for CAS, can only ever get one kill with them per life, but still… a kill is a kill
:P
Thai was ally during ww2 and used some of japanese weapons. I think thats why they added Minor ally for Japan.
