Gaijin routinely adds vehicles that there is no evidence that they even underwent trials, let alone entered service. however, that’s almost universally to the russian and chinese trees, so sweden might miss out.
Sweden literaly has the biggest number of unfair fake implementation vehicles in the game lol.
Still point stands sweden should not receive 2a8s st the same time as germany.
Their tree needs it the least, with modifcations and camo there is nothing to model it after etc etc.
Either the 2a8 comes years after its in service time and gets handed out to all user nations
Germany, netherlands and sweden.
Or if its relatively early addition germany gets it first and the other 2 later on.
Same what happend with the 2a7v and 2a7hu
The only countries buying KF-51 is Hungary and Italy. I can totally see gaijin pulling what they did with the KF-41
If gaijin can find a way of wriggling out of giving Germany it’s premier MBT after the Leopards then i’d be shocked, people where already dosgruntled by the KF-41 controversy
Germanys premier MBTs are in fact the Leopard 2A8 and Leopard 2A7A1, they just ordered a bunch of them.
Because the KF-51 still consists of nearly entirely German parts, they use Leo 2 hulls or Lynx hulls, german guns, german optics, german loitering munitions, german powerpack…
I’m not saying it shouldn’t go to those who pre-ordered them but it a bit rich to expect Germany not to receive one if the flimsy justification that they haven’t ordered any yet
Unless the german MOD is super stingy, I don’t see them not investing in a next generation MBT, although between KF-51 and an ASCALON armed EMBT I’m unsure which they’d pick.
The Leopard 2A8 won’t have a ton of longevity if russia or china rolls out a new next-gen MBT, since european defense spending seems to revolve around the progress of eastern defense projects
The lynx isn’t too big of a deal since Germany has their own, comparable if not better IFV, prpblem arises if gaijin is handing out T-14, AbramsX or Leclerc xlr without comparable systems for their parent nations.
Guys, off topic.
We need a next gen MBT discussion tab so the swedes stop reporting my posts, if I can’t find one then consider it a WIP on my end this weekend
I got a high caliber thread still being worked on, it’s somewhat similar to what you’re asking for, if you click on my profile you’ll find it as the featured topic.
Alright that solves my issue, we can take it there instead
Like?
Great to know that this post is still just a pissing match between players. @Surbaissemaxxing if you would kindly clean this mess up considering Shini and others cant seem to keep it on topic
I did say its off topic and didnt want to engange further into this for that specific reason.
The trialed vehicles were a mistake thats a fact.
I am gonna go ahead and remove my own comments myself for you
Off topic if needed will delete
Spoiler
Hey i dont mind you ranting about this when it
pertains to the topic at hand, thats what these forums are about but this is not the forum for that, so i do ask to just either find a different forum topic to argue and rant on and just keep it to yourself with this topic. This isn’t just for you but the others here. I don’t care enough to research these vehicles heavily since i enjoy lower BR’s and air so when i come to these posts to see info on these vehicles and its 20 posts of off topic i find it pretty frustrating that people cant read.

I get what you mean. And you know that i am typicaly more of a reasonable guy.
Sometimes i just get heated because some guys just have very bad opinions.
But well thats enough now
Don’t know how “new” these news are, but first deliveries are expected in 2027. There will be an A and B variant.
I bet it’ll be added into the game before that lol
Probably as long as a functioning version exists, delivery time shouldn’t matter
