War Thunder's lack of a UK tree

Ireland is a Republic, with an Illegally occupied territory.

That would only be true if Ireland was a republic in 1914. Which the game technically starts at because we have Dreadnaughts in the game

It’s Great Britain, cause it doesn’t include Northern Ireland in War Thunder.

I don’t exist to you? :`(

Why? Its official name is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Great Britain was predominantly used as shorthand until the 1960’s, when they instead started using the UK as shorthand. When people said GB they were referring to the kingdom not the landmass.

And that is true. But the USA Isn’t called America. The USSR isn’t called the Soviet Union. Germany… I guess German Reich isn’t on the cards so that’s why it’s just “Germany”. Why is the UK the only country to not have the proper name?

change it to British Empire and then you don’t need to concern yourself with this

Why would you want to even rename Germany that when we go to the modern era? Doesn’t make sense. The famous German Reich Leopard 2.

im also thinking its best to rename it to the commonwealth tree. apart from just the british, it now contains an entire south african branch, we can probably expect more indian vehicles, canadian, khalid for jordan. i wouldnt even be suprised of poland could end up in the commonwealth tree, since they already have polish vehicles here and there.

Sorry guys, you can’t ‘Brexit’ War Thunder. Keep chugging the tea and baked beans, and lets keep spamming the Fox, Falcon, and all other tanks that make the other nations cry themselves to sleep.

Yes. But we start at the Second World war for Air and Ground. Therefore all nations should default to that point. Italy seems to be the only outlier because it has the republic’s flag.

What about the famous Italian Republic Re.2001?
The Empire of Japan’s Type 10?
The United Soviet Socialist Republic’s Pantsir?
The Republic of China’s J-7E?
The Kingdom of Hungary’s Leopard 2?

  1. Everyone has vehicles that makes other nations cry themselves to sleep
  2. There is no “Brexiting” going on here. Just changing the name to the correct one.

Fair enough, it is a refreshing change from the usual Britain suffers arguments. As an Aussie, I’ll still be here to poke fun at you regardless of what name you’re under. I muchly agree on it being United Kingdom over any talk of a ‘Commonwealth tree’. The closet the Commonwealth gets to anything combat-oriented is when Australia dunks on everyone in the Commonwealth Games. It’s not a military alliance and never has been. So for those reasons, I will vote for it to be renamed to United Kingdom. I’d also like the Indian T-90 removed from the tree, but I digress.

Nah i vote for British Empire so I can get every stuff from everywhere in the empire

This would put it in line with the USSR tbf, and it would stop all arguments about where Canada, Australia and India should go
