Three vehicles that leave you baffled as to why they're not in Warthunder

Surprised we dont have more early cold war jets like the F-101, F-102, or more MiG 15, 17, and 19 varients.

Theres alot more ww2 armored cars and halftracks that could be added (especially for germany)

The lack of ww2naval aircraft from Germany and Britian is wierd that they werent added yet. (BF 109T and naval Stuka vairents for Germany, and Barracuda and Firefly for the British)

As someone who avidly suggests aircraft for the US aviation, I can easily answer this.

1.) Curtiss XP-40Q-2A Warhawk

A P-40 on steroids. This thing is powered by a water-injected V-1710-121 engine with a two-stage supercharger tuned for high-altitude performance.

2.) McDonnell XP-67 Moonbat

An American interceptor with six 37mm M4 cannons. Need I say more?

3.) Vought XF5U-1

A worthy “Dreams Come True” event aircraft with a UFO-like design. It had provisions for either six 0.50 caliber machine guns or four 20mm cannons.

Honorable Mentions:

  • General Motors FM-2 Wildcat

  • Grumman F8F-2 Bearcat

  • North American FJ-3M Fury (Late Production)

  • McDonnell F-101 Voodoo series

  • Convair F-106 Delta Dart

  • A lot of iconic Cold War aircraft from all nations in the game are missing and deserving their mention here.

Oh damn my bad. thanks for pointing that out

Another trio I forgot about

A9 cruiser tank

A10 cruiser tank

And A10e1 prototype before the demand for hull machinegun.

Honestly surprised these 3 didnt come to WT yet, especially given 2 of them are the tanks the UK went to war with for the first year or two of WW2.

There was a whole study done about the Aim-7B


The full study is in a suggestion I made on the F4D-1 with Sparrows.

Fr. Cold-war is arguably the best era of vehicles in Warthunder, yet is massively slept on.

As much as I’d like to see them they wouldn’t bring much to the TT. Same reason we haven’t seen the Covenanter or the Centaur.

I’d love to see the deployable supports be implemented to lock you down and make things more stable.

  • BMD-3. We’ve already been promised the Soviet airborne fighting vehicles in the game for years at this point, and it’s basically just a BMP-2 turret on the chassis used by the BMD-4. There’s no reason it couldn’t be here by now.

  • Leopard C1. We don’t have any of the welded-turret Leopard 1s actually. The Leopard C1 is essentially a Leopard 1A3 with a laser rangefinder, and would be a good supplement to the Leopard A1A1 at 9.0.

  • M10 Booker. America has so many goddamn options for a 105mm gun equipped tracked light tank in the tech tree and it still lacks one. Now that the MPF program has successfully produced a vehicle that has been accepted for service and produced in quantity for the United States, the Booker should be added to the American tree.

    Thailand has it in service, and modern prop aircraft would be neat to see :P

    Funny little Sherman river barge for the french :D

The fact that we don’t have more J35 variants such as the J35 F & J
I mean the J35F was the most mass produced variant of the J35.
It really sucks that there is only one version in the tech-tree and two as premiums (one not even regularly available)

That one is being worked on by PickleJarOfDeath, check him out on WT Live, he’s made a lot of progress already

Would be more interesting for the reserve to 2.0 region over “A13, another A13, another A13 with more turret armour, another A13”

xD

F-14D: It can solve the “Tomcat problem”, if it can be used correctly. Easily 13,7 with proper AIM-54C ECCM/Sealed and AIM-7P and AIM-9M.

Su-15TM : I really don’t know why we don’t have it in game. Very unique in everything.

MiG-31s: It has some variants that can cover various roles. But equivalent solution to F-14s for reds.

F-106: Sexy six…! Iconic plane!
