Decided I’d drop the rest of the pictures I was able to find of the Turkish Armed Forces during the period, all photographed during a series of Turkish maneuvers in February of 1941. These pictures were all taken by a war correspondent of Fox Photos Ltd, a local newspaper photography company based in London. The company ceased to exist in 1999.
While all these photographs are not exactly tank or armor-centric, I feel this forum would appreciate me attaching them here. These are indeed rare glimpses into the military history of the Turkish Armed Forces, previously unseen.

Alongside the previous photograph of 20mm-cannon armed trucks, these are all I’ve been able to find of this press photograph grouping. If I find anything else, I’ll also attach them to this thread later down the line.
We want Turkish, indian, South America TT/spanish-portugal TT, north Korea TT.
I am Israel main and most likely Turkish TT would be my second favorite with France, on third place i would place for me Sweden. Obviously after using so much magaches and merkava it quite hurts to shot at them. It was always sad thing while playing France.
I also want polish TT, not for me, but for my brother. He surely would love it.
I personally like more exotic stuff.
Gajing said they won’t implement for Israel ranks 1-3 just because Israel don’t have enough planes which in my eyes is lie, if it’s problem then why not give just free additional uses, like in case of m51, honestly who makes plane lineups? Maybe for arcade mode, for ARB and G-MRB 1 plane is enough, why anyone would take more than 2? Daily buckups exists also.
I am like 85% sure Turkey will end up as a Italian Sub Tech-Tree, which is something I wouldn’t mind as long as it gives the M60T and Kaan, as long as it doesn’t go to Israel
Personally i would rather turkey to have own independent TT, it meets all requirements.
As for Israel, i don’t wanna turkey to be subtt however i would be very happy if turkey just like Israel was full independent TT, but sharing preset slots with Israeli units, so they could be grinded separately yet used together in battles (common lineups). Simply both use modified American stuff, both are middle eastern, both has hkaps, both have a lot of M47/M48 and a lot of M113 variants. If you want this option of turkey but with Italy then it’s fine, but i completely don’t wanna turkey as subtt, it must be independent TT. I believe gajing will add turkey, India, maybe latin America/Brasil and somewhere in far future maybe austria/central Europe which would be something between Russian and western tech. For now korea, asean for japan and Greece and Cyprus which will come very soon.
And gaijin announces Arabic vehicles instead of actually giving any attention the Turkish tech tree. Quite frustrating honestly, since i’ve hoped that they’d at the TT around middle of 2026. Now, its the 9th month and we still don’t have any idea about what’ll happen to the Turkish Tech tree propositions. Hopefully they acknowladge us over here by the end of 2026 which is not too far currently.
If they do, it’s probably gonna be a while since South and North Korea were the nations most recently mentioned for a new tree. Not to mention competition for other candidates like Poland, Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia.
Well, even though that might be. I’d like to see the rather an independant or an Turkic nations tech tree, it could be an asian countries tech tree too. And, just to clarify. I have researched a bit, which shows that Turkiye has alot more indigenously developed armoured vehicles & aircraft.
