We need more Irish vehicles in the game

[Gridt]

Personally, as an Irish person, I believe the lack of Irish vehicles in the game is surprising with the multiple possible additions that could be in the game, so I have decided to suggest some vehicles that Ireland has used:

Churchill VI with merlin engine

Churchill mk. VI w/ Merlin Engine

poll Salutations everybody This is a suggeston for the Churchill mk VI that was modified by the Republic of Ireland to take a Rolls-Royce V12 55M Merlin engine [Irish Churchill] After a successful training stint in England the Republic of Ireland was leased three churchill mk VI in 1948 followed by a fourth in 1949. Ireland continued to rent the vehicles until 1954 in which it was asked if they could be outright bought, which they were. The Churchills were driven to Glen of Imaal twice a year…

Headless Coachman: A turretless Comet tank filled with a Swedish 90mm recoilless gun

The Headless Coachman

poll Salutations everybody, This suggestion is for the A34 Comet tank that was modified by the Irish in 1969 by removing the turret and affixing a Swedish PV-1110 90mm recoilless rifle. [image] Comet TYI 433 was initially ordered in 1958 along with several other Comets and four Churchills, which were used mostly for training. In 1962 disaster struck when TYI 433 suffered a massive electrical fire which completely destroyed the turret. At this point the Irish military couldn’t acquire spares …

Leyland armoured car fitted with a 20mm Madsen gun

Leyland Armored Car

poll poll poll Leyland Armored Car [Leyland Armored Car] Also known as Armored Vehicle A.L.V. 1 or Armored Car Mk III General Description [Leyland 2] In the early 1930s, Acting Director of the Irish Cavalry Corps, Comdt. J. V. Lawless, proposed building armored bodies and storing them until they could be fitted onto a locally acquired chassis when the need arose. The Irish Army was skeptical but tasked him with leading the project to create one prototype, initially using surplus tur…

AML-90 (Ireland): Same as the French AML-90, ordered in 1970 and retired in 2013

Edit: Some of the AML-90s were upgraded in the 1990s and fitted with NVD and LRF

AML-30 (RARDEN): Singular AML fitted with the turret of the FV107 Scimitar

AML-30 (RARDEN): Ireland’s forgotten fox prototype

poll poll poll [IMG_4084] AML-30 (RARDEN Turret): The Irish Fox Note that the name for this vehicle is not official. It is to provide confusion with the AML-30 (H-30) I am here to propose the addition of a unique Irish modification of the French AML, a singular model with its former 60mm turret replaced with that of the British Scimitar and its 30mm RARDEN gun. It is hard to find information about the vehicle but the only two images of it, not even archived by the Defence Forces, proves its e…

AML-20: AML fitted with a turret similar to that of the Ratel 20

FV101 Scorpion (Ireland): slightly improved variant of the Scorpion CVR(T) with fume extractor, could be fitted with rooftop.50 calibre M2

FV-101 Scorpion - British light tank

poll FV-101 Scorpion [image] History: The FV101 Scorpion is a British light tank, it entered service with the British Army in 1973, serving until 1994. Over 3,000 were produced. The scorpion is considered one of the fastest tanks in the world since it can reach 80km/h and being light and small it is widely used for quick reconnaissance and to be transported by air. It achieved some fame when it was used in the Malvinas War in 1982 (Falklands War) that pitted the British against the Argentines…

Mowag Piranha IIIH MRV: Piranha fitted with an Italian HITFIST-30 turret like that of the Freccia

I agree! As of right now all we have is the boat (proud owner of). What I do right now is slap the Irish flag on all of my British vehicles, but I would 100% love to see some more love for Ireland in game!

[PlayedStatue626-live]

Would be some very nice additions, you can also include the domestic built Samuel Beckett class vessels

(Probably gonna make a suggestion on this at some point)

[Gridt]

Yes, Samuel Beckett class and Roisin class would be nice additions even though I don’t play naval

Also would like the M1-M6 torpedo boats and the Irish Flower-Class corvettes with either the 4 inch Mark IX or 4 inch Mark XIX gun
