Why is America lacking so many aircraft?

America is lacking a lot of interesting aircraft

It is rather odd considering other nations: Germany, Ussr/Russia, and The UK, all receive these interesting jet gun fighters that would be a nice addition to the game by hopefully expanding one of the more fun BR's.

We are missing planes like

The A37 Super tweet

XP-81

Vought F7U Cutlass

And oddly enough the F86 Sabre dog. That is already in the game

lastly late experimental jets.

we could hopefully see later jets like the

Rockwell XFV-12

Average American player doesn’t know how to appreciate one of the largest air trees in the game

if the soviets can get all of their barely working jets than we should be able to enjoy our planes

Everyone is lacking their planes tbh, especially when propeller planes are involved.

All that and not even one mention of the F-101 Voodoo
Of all non-top tier planes it’s probably the most overdue by now

but hey at least gaijin adds like the 10th copy of some plane and makes it premium
(this is meant to be sarcasm for everyone that doesnt get it)

It’s just a poorly argumented request to add cool new planes to the US tree.

i mean im not against adding cool new planes but then at least do it for every nation
im pretty sure there still would be some cool ww2 stuff for most countries
same goes for cold war and modern stuff

Pretty much, personally I still wanna see the FH-1

I’m as greedy as you are, I want all those additions. Unfortunately, they’re focusing on other things instead, like infantry

The UK has quite a few missing aircraft, even excluding variants of existing families. Of the top of my head there’s Skua, Roc, Manchester, Albemarle, Anson, Bombay, Barracuda, Hereford, Albacore, Spearfish, Harrow, Fantôme, Welkin, Wellesley, Fulmar, Hendon, Albacore, Lerwick, Walrus (that’s actually obtainable), Lysander and Windsor that can all be added.

I just want niche planes. Frankly adding them would also give other nations the export variant for most of them

I suppose brethren

Because there are 10 tech trees in War Thunder with air, ground, helicopters, and naval with only so many hours in the year.

Americans have dozens of barely working aircraft in-game.
Weird of you to call USA “Soviets” in another post.

america already has ALOT of airplanes, but the problem is that most of them are nothingburger.

personally what i’m missing most is the F-86H, it’s a slightly larger sabre with a larger engine, all-moving tailplane, 4 M39 cannons, AIM-9s and better performance across the board. it would give USA valid competition at 9.0 or 9.3 depending where you want to place an F-86H, since the F-86F-2 is for some reason 8.7 instead of 8.3 (gaijin please remove cannon tax from all vehicles), the F3H is just not good, and the F-100 is also incredibly lacklustre.
