Recently the Chinese tech tree received the Taiwanese Abrams…there some kind of protest but it was added anyway…but the Chinese player base also protested and had the Taiwan flag removed from the game…i was born in taiwan so i was not please…please not this is not some kind of political thread but simply showing just some munitions and tanks that should come to the chinese tt instead of ones from other countries…

INSTEAD OF THE GBU 53
A munition very similar to the gbu 53 would be the TL-20

Am not against the addition of the gbu 53 to other nations but why China, a country that right now in the world is most likely leading in weapons development with all the new munitions they unveil each year…same goes for tanks

TANKS
China is shaping up to be a major nation in warthunder…as it is irl…and has models of tanks that are in game that have been modernized heavily…ztz99b being an example of this and it should make a 12.7 tank that was the excuse for the abrams to be added there since the vt4A1 was the only 12.7 tank then.
There is also the type 99 and the type 99A this two models of the type 99 should be add with they trype 99 as a 12.7 and the type 99A possibly as a 12.7+ allow with other tanks that would be 12.7+

there are some videos with Chinas tanks and their capabilities

** FOR AIRCRAFT**
I believe as the su30sm2 is in game and it being a su35 technically we should have the j16 in game…the only reason i see it not being added is the munitions it can carry…but it should be in game non they less as other aircraft in game can carry some newer munitions but those munitions are not in game yet…and when EW systems come we should see the j16D…

CONCLUSION
I don’t not believe the Chinese tech tree need reinforcement from other countries’ munitions as they have their own and are developing more each year …am not opposed to it either but would like to see more domestic Chinese tech rather than adding foreign ones even if it by way of minor countries in said tech tree. Still pissed about the flag though
this are my opinions anyway what are yours

Republic of China operates equipment sold by America.

Because most ppl only play one nation so they will add content to multiple trees if applicable.

Also Gaijin needs to add a top tier jet to China after nuking the PL-12, so (I assume) enjoy the F-16V with AIM-120D/GBU-53

Or just revert PL-12 nerf its bs

from a long time ago…not modern times during the 80s

That was more of a cold war thing, now I think overselling their efficacy or just telling how it is, is the common theme because the main interest is to sell stuff to governments.

10

Because Americans are selling those units to them.

Could you elaborate what nonsense i spoke of?

About China being trustworthy for one or another reason. When it comes to their military vehicles, they are like an open book, at least for ground units, I’m not sure about air. Norinco holds a yearly exhibition of all their products (90% of CN ground forces), and is present at almost every military trade show on the planet.

Aside from military secrets, such as composition of certain things, computer software, and how they make certain things work, they have everything on display for everyone to see, datasheets galore, they even demonstrate how their things work, they just won’t explain it how they get them to work.

In that regard, China is far more open than any other nation on the planet. Now clearly they wont be showing and marketing their projects that aren’t adopted or ready for sale yet, so the new Type 100 tank is still shrouded in some mystery, but for everything that is currently in service, you have all the data you need and will never get from any NATO nation or elsewhere.

So the nonsense of being not trustworthy can be equally applied to every other nation out there.

EDIT: They are very secretive when it comes to their Navy, particularly submarines, because those assets are far more important than ground vehicles, which are produced in the hundreds and thousands, and basically work the same way all around the world and there was no “break-throuhg” technology for the last 40 years in that segment. It’s just how much you are willing to sacrifice weight or mobility for protection. cannons are pretty much the same either NATO or other, as are projectiles. The composition of armor is know, only a few options as of right now, until there is a breakthrough in science here. The only really secretive thing is the Fight Control Systems and what they can do, especially now with AI being on the rise, and this is exactly the only real hidden thing from China when it comes to ground forces.

Their Airforce is probably too a lot more secretive, but again they’ve shown their J-20 plenty of times now at trade shows in China, and are talking about it a lot more now that it’s adapted into active service. They are very secretive about their next generation bomber, and fighter though as they are still in development. They are very secret about radar technology and software again. You can estimate a lot of thigs from how they are on a global scale though, and for War Thunder 95% of things that are kept a secret aren’t important at all, because they are not implemented in the game.

The ZTZ99A or the VT4A1 are not capability wise 12.3 / 12.7 BR Tanks; the M1A2T is the best Tank China has. VT4 is like an 11.7 - max 12BR MBT sitting 12.7.

But i would also like if Gaijin focused more on adding domestic Vehicles from China to the Tree; i am not against the M1A2T tho i think it was an good addition as its much better than 99A / WZ1001 or VT4A1

Chinese TT gets it cuz its China Tree not just PRC but also RoC same as Germany or USSR got all their versions in one Tree and RoC operates those US EQ

F-16V won’t be enjoyable in any manner. 6 missile at 14.3 is horrible

16

Because gaijin thinks Taiwan its part of the PRC gov. Yet if they put a step in the island, they will get attacked.

18

With Taiwan slowly starting to produce their own weapons they can have their old TT in the future…

ROC and PRC, their vehicles in China TT, what’s wrong ?

Ctrl C & Ctrl V is more easily than build a new one.
Let’s appreciate the M60A1 Pre-order! Does the US TT really need this tank?
Maybe it gets some magic like shell-proof or some useful bugs, and also surviving several versions.

21

does china need it better yet why does it need a new foreign top tier jet…with foreign munitions…ROC does not consider china state an ally and china the same…same as giving russian an oplot from ukraine

22

Their bad relations don’t change the fact that PRC and ROC are both China.

But why did the gaijin not represent the ROC…? I think it would even be better if the ROC is in the US TT. Both nation have been developing weapons together too.
