Ultimate British Air Tree: A Project to improve the UK Tech Tree (V3.1 OUT NOW!)

please refer to this, we simply placed vehicles in the rough areas we thought would fit the vehicles compared to others, the P.1121 is better than the Hunters so required a higher BR, even if it isn’t Meta, Ultimately we are not Gaijin, and because we chose not to undertake the massive undertaking of Decompression (that is not what this tree is about, it’s about showing what the British tree could get in the current game situation, with some liberties).

BRs will change over time, not every vehicle is meta, sometimes it’s fun to play a vehicle that isn’t exactly perfect every game, sometimes it’s nice to take a different playstyle, going by the idea that a Vehicle won’t be meta would mean most trees would lack some very iconic aircraft, and I can assure you, a lot of these vehicles would have a place, some not in AB, some not in RB and some not in SB, but every aircraft we have added would work in at least one gamemode.

Oh, really ?

Gaijin implemented new BR just as F-4M Phantom FGR.2

But F-4J(UK) Phantom F.3 armed AIM-9L like Phantom FGR.2 ?

As of right now we plan to keep the F.3 the same as the FG.1

Also with V2.0 the recent BR changes will be implemented

This is excellent. The Mosquito has been done so dirty by Gajian and the Whitley still not being in the game is mad.

Gajin add AIM-9L on F-4(UK) for future major update ?

I hope reverse BR to 11.0, 11.3 & 10.7

Ultimate British Air Tree: A Project to improve the UK Tech Tree V2.0 thread in the future ?

Here is another aircraft that can be added (Early Tier III)

The Firebrand TF.5 (or Firebrand TF.5A)

The Firebrand TF.5 is just a further improved TF.4, the TF.5A on the other hand had hydraulically boosted ailerons tested on it to address it’s issues in terms of maneuverability particularly in roll rate


Also is it possible to show off the loadouts of the aircraft shown, especially missing loadouts since a lot of aircraft have that issue not just UK aircraft

It wont be a different thread, ill just update this thread and make an announcment when it goes live

We plan to add more detail to the descriptions over time, the biggest issue is that the forums puts a 96000 character limit on posts so we have to work around fitting it within that

I had a hunch that would be new premium pre-order pack in rank 7 because lack GEC Nightbird Night Vision Gear (NVG), GEC-Marconi 1010 FLIR & TIALD pod. and equipped AN/ALE-47 Countermeasures dispensers only

Harrier GR.5 move to premium tree ?

Harrier GR.5A instead Harrier GR.5 but stop gap between Hawk 200 (Night Attack) and Harrier GR.7

I guess Harrier T.10 might be early event vehicle aircraft at rank 8

Until we see any reasonable evidence that the GR.5 will be premium, it will stay as TT, no need to put a production aircraft in the premium tree

The plan is to replace the T.10 with the GR.5A come V2.0, I just need to finish the BR decompression and sort out some time, hopefully by the end of the week.

Oh my oh my, now this is something interesting, would definitely be nice to see the British Liberators pop up and kudos to you for including the Spiteful/Seafang

The Spitfire Mk VII and early Griffons would be excellent. Especially the Mk XII. Supposedly good for around 370mph on the deck!

use links to a website that you may own, or to specific threads for those vehicles

The issue with that is that then it begins to go from a full suggestion (our end goal) to more of a wishlist, however, as more vehicles get suggested, we plan to link them in so we can give more info that way

hi would i be ok for me to take and just add a mark on it to show which vehicals are already in game i dont plan to use it for anything it just would make it easier to know what is and is not in the game

Sure, if you want you could post back here for clarity, i had planned to do something similar in the nearish future but have tons of other stuff to sort out first

yep i can do that what kinda marker or indicator did you think of adding to it

i also use “dead threads” as a way to collect info i want in one place.
something like this: [German SPAA, SAMs, Missiles and Anti Air Projectiles]

(ill be removing link in a few mins, like if u saw)

My plan was to just add a little bar or mark in the corner of each vehicle already in game, the biggest issue is that every time i update the tree or new vehicles get added, i need to redo the entire thing

Update V2.0 “Strike from the Sea”

Thank you so much everyone for the massive amount of support we have received since posting this, I must admit, I was sceptical of how well this would be received, but so far we have been overwhelmed by support for what we have done, somehow we have gotten over 80 likes and 2.2K views in just a few weeks, with the continuing feedback from the community we plan to keep improving and expanding this tree, and if you have any suggestions for vehicles, please suggest them here.

Thanks to this massive amount of support I have been able to bring you the First major update “Strike from the Sea” far earlier than Initially expected, i had originally expected to have to wait several months however due to the amount of ideas supplied to me through this Thread and externally through Discord, we have been able to bring forward this update by a massive amount, It mainly focuses on the naval line around Rank II and III, which has been massively overhauled to implement the Corsairs, and several other new aircraft, although this is not all, in total we have added 7 new Tech tree aircraft and 4 new Premium aircraft, whilst I had hoped to add a bit more, the demand for an update and the massive amount of other stuff has limited what I can add, however there are several other changes including the Decompression of the Higher BRs in line with the recent BR changes. I hope to keep bringing you updates in conjunction with @AVROVULCANXH558 to give you all the penultimate version of the British Air Tech Tree.

Plans for the Future

I plan to continue with the fixing of the Vehicles images for the near future, I only have Rank I to III of the premiums to continue with, after that I plan to begin the overhauling of the vehicles descriptions in order to meet the long term goal of transferring this to the suggestion section, I also plan to implement more Major updates in the near future, giving the community a say in how we shape and design the future of the British Air Tree.
