Ukraine Air Force Tree

i think people are forgetting that Ukraine does not necessarily need to be its own tech tree

adding Ukraine as its own tech tree faces some difficulties such as vehicle deficit or controversy from players.

As a way to address this i made a somewhat realistic Ukrainian Sub-Tree which focuses on Ukrainian modification of planes which 1. makes it feel less like a copy paste tech tree 2. bring some variety to the game. 3l. it can be added to any current/future tech tree

Issue is there’s still a few of the unique planes that are missing.

Also I thought the Yak 52 didn’t have attached armament and it was the crew using thier own guns to attack drones

Even though it doesn’t have attached armament, historically the yak 52 can carry rocket pods, internal weaponry, and camera pods which in my opinion will make it one of the greatest prop CAS planes in the game

Yes I know these aren’t seen on the Ukrainian yak 52 but this armament would be added to make this plane game compatible

Many people don’t realize that Ukraine have existed for centuries and not since 1991

This bring us to the fact that Ukraine operates biplanes and a Ukrainian tech tree does not have to limit itself to only top tier planes

They used quite a few WW1 aircraft from both the including some taken from the Central Powers after the Armistice, stuff like the Nieuport 11, 21, 23, 27, Sikorksy S-16, Sopwith Camel, Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutter, SPAD S.VII, Vickers FB.19, Fokker D.VII, and even early Sikorsky Ilya Muromets heavy bombers.

1+ from me, but I think it’ll make more sense if its a sub tree in the USSR tree instead .since they use mostly russian planes left from the soviet union eras
EDIT: If im not incorrect some Ukrainian planes are modified to carry NATO/American weaponry. So that could be a good only Ukrainian tree beanifents

those are 9Ms, 9Xs arnt getting exported

That’s what I thought at first but I saw someone say they were aim9x so I changed it

Technically Ukraine can get some of the US plane like f-5, b-66, b-52, f-4, a-6 and others(it won’t make much sense, but it’ll be fun, like a Pakistani oplot)

L-39 Albatross?

F-5 trainer

Why in the world would it get that?

Is it a F-5B or an F-5F or a derivative of either of them?

More importantly was it under the Ukrainian Air Force or under a Ukrainian battalion of a foreign army (e.g: Turkish Air Force or USAF?) .

Sources would be really helpful in this

I’m pretty sure that they are in general.

Also, this.

Still unlikely that Ukraine has them

Can’t say for sure.
