The HEP is smaller, lighter and likely remains a better fighter. The Super Hornets are more designed for increased ground strike capability, not an upgrade to fighter capability.

Another potential aircraft, mostly to fill up Tier II Canadian Attacker line is the A-20/Boston family of aircraft. I know that the RAAF also used them as well but the Australian Attacker line already have sufficient aircraft at Tier II
RAAF A-20C.
I hope if gaijin add this CANZAC TT they don’t do what they did with Israel and add C&P vehicles instead of actually interesting vehicles. As you have show it is possible to create a fairly unique TT but gaijin could still screw it up like what they did with Israel.

If by any miracle gaijin decides to add CANZAC to war thunder what would our situation be with drones will it just be C&P MQ-1s or is there any domestically built UAVs that can use agms. I know Australia uses MQ 28s and MQ 4s (not sure about Canada haven’t checked) but the are used for reconnaissance not strike yet.
I don’t know of us having any of that specific type of drone. We have some land and sea based stuff, and as you said the MQ 28 which is inching ever closer to production with ground strike ordinance.
Honestly I think they should do a CANZUK tree (or call it the Commonwealth as an excuse to cram rare oddities in from there). Heck they could even use the Empire Flag from the 1900s to 1940s in the early ranks just so it looks special.
Gaijin copypastes the living daylights out of USA/Germany/Soviets so why not some Brit copypaste in there too (Like on Sweden, and instead of giving them to Germany as premiums or even giving Italy Brit vehicles that Britain doesn’t get).
And at least unlike Israel it wouldn’t need to start at Rank V, it can probably start in Rank II or III if it can’t manage to get Rank I to not just be Britain-verbatim.
