You could add similarly aligned nations in Latin America into the Cuban TT mainly Nicaragua and Venezuela as examples. Nicaragua may not add much unique but Venezuela could
Was also considering Venezuela initially. It could fill the gaps indeed. Nicaragua had only like 3 vehicles but, one of them was the T-72B1MS.

Venezuela would at least extend the light tank line further and give more variety to the Main Tank line. Would also fill some gaps at the lower tier SPAA line with their Duster modifications. The biggest link between Cuba and Venezuela however is the Tiuna LUV which Cuba (allegedly) operates.
If anybody’s wondering; Yes the Tiuna could be added since there is some weapon loadouts it can utulize such as MANPADS, rockets and recoilless rifles as examples

My favourite is the mobile S-75. Still Cuba could go to USSR or a future sub tree in united Korea under North Korea.
I take back what I said about the subtree. It would make sense to actually make a standalone Cuba tree with multiple subtrees of their allies (Angola, Venezuela, Western Sahara and others)

Only viable as a Subtree, not an independent tech tree.
Cuba would make an excellent sub-tree for Russia in the game; it makes perfect sense to include it that way. However, I don’t see it working as a standalone tree, even with the support of other aligned nations like Venezuela, they still wouldn’t have top-tier capabilities. That’s why a sub-tree is the best option for Cuba; I don’t think anyone would complain about that.
I would add only some unique stuff for USSR TT. Mainly mobile S-75 and S-125.

+1, but only for filler and event vehicles
A few things. I vote “no” because I wish to see Cuba in a proper LATAM tree, however this was not a voting option.
If we’re already including a ton of one-offs and unknown conversions in this tree, I think it would be fine to replace the standard Comet with a version mounting an M2HB in Cuban service.
Are there any actual sources on this vehicle? I was told it was a photoshop from the Tank Encyclopedia community but I don’t even know if this claim is true.
Also, for good spirit here’s a GAZ-53 truck with ZPU-4 that can be added at one of the lower ranks:

I couldn’t imagine LATAM actually happening tbh, if we apply the same x country is hostile towards y country with this you’d have a mess.
Eh, I don’t really think Gaijin cares much about that, if United Korea is any indication. It’s more so that they simply don’t want to put in the effort I imagine.

Only if we get the motorcycle RPG team that was part of the same exercise lol
No need to add a separate Comet. I’ll simply mention the .50 cal in the specifications for the existing one. Thanks for pointing that out.
As for the SPAAG, I honestly don’t know. If it turns out to be fake, then they can simply leave it out. It wouldn’t be a major loss.
That truck also doesn’t look like it would have a particularly good field of fire against ground targets, but I’ll still mention it in the list below the tree.

The political situation in Latin America? I mean, I’m sure they do like any other.
Great to see this all assembled so nicely, but my personal preference is to see the unique Cuban vehicles and mods included in a LatAm tech tree. You did an excellent job, and I’m glad someone compiled this together! +1

Do you lot actually believe they’ll add some sort of an alliance tree? We’ve not yet seen such a thing yet.
“Because they haven’t yet” is no reason for them not to in the future. Otherwise we’d have no progression.
I love to see people care about my country, Cuba; I would really love to see some vehicles in the game apart from the MiG, so I voted for them to be in the Soviet tree, as historically we are a very Russian-allied country, instead of them being their own unique tech tree or some bizarre Latin American mashup. Soviet all the way for me
