They have not to my knowledge announced any replacement for these planes before or after their removal.
If they are releasing a Thai sub tree, those arent Japanese planes and will most likely be copy paste planes from another nation. Which then begs the question that has been brung up here multiple times of why even bother playing Japan if there is nothing unique.
People complain constantly, Gaijin doesnt listen to 99% of it especially if it is a legitimate complaint with sources to back it up.
So why are they caring now all of a sudden?
Also they are removing them from research not from people’s accounts … so it just makes them rarer so its still ahistorical…
Not quite, they used to be 7.0 with a bomber or attacker airspawn. They were then moved to 7.3 without it. Then up to 7.7 and finally 8.0.
It’s an easy choice for them. Usually complaints require a lot of work and/or cuts to their perceived profit. This one requires nearly no work and creates a last rush towards soon-to-be-rare vehicles in an otherwise not much played tree, which means people buying premiums.
Thats why im saying they lined it up with Foundation Day so you are forced to buy japanese prems just to get these soon to be rare vehicles.
You are reading into this too much the Panther 2 wasn’t that popular of a removal. Not is the removal of the R2Y2 profitable ( I suppose if it was made premium or some other way it would be)
Functioning prototypes that existed and as long as they are implemented in the same functional configuration are fair game. Their addition is a different conversation.
The R2Y2 is not this.
As for your second point you can check the F-16AJ dev blog or the countless responses by Smin to this. It probably will face the same fate as the R2Y2 soon.
The Thai sub trees f84 is the stated replacement. Yes it’s not domestic.
They already released the Thai Sub tree that is the whole reason Gaijin said they can now remove the R2Y2.
Since R2Y2 is being removed due to realism, I can’t wait for them to improve the realism. German and Japanese planes will be grounded due to lack of fuel and pilots. German gearboxes will fall apart, British tanks will have to take a tea break. Soviet aircraft from throughout World War II will have logistical problems, for example there will be no bullets, spare parts or fuel. Japanese planes will have a huge problem with electronics. And many other realistic things.
8.0 makes it not worth to play, that’s why people always ignore R2Y2 until Gaijin wants to delete them, if it can back to 7.7-7.3, we will see how many players realized how important this plane is
Next update: Zero pilots unable to hear or send messages in chat due to poor radios, caused by insufficient engine ignition shielding
Ki-61 from the beginning until the creation of Ki-100 had huge problems with engines. In the game it could look like you won’t start because the engine doesn’t work or the engine turns off while in the air

Keep defending Gaijin and provoking critics.
R2Y2s should’ve never been added to begin with, and delisting them instead of outright removing them is a pro-player stance.
I’ve been demanding they add F-84G, Kawasaki P-1, etc and remove the R2Y2s for over a year at this point; I criticized Gaijin, and now they’ve answered the critique, they listened.
Gaijin has replaced the R2Y2s with an F-84G, so stop having posts of lies.
They told us the real reason: The R2Y2s are fake and are to be delisted. They’ve said this countless times.
You know this is besides the point and realism is combined with “arcardeish” elements for enjoyment instead of being an actual full blown simulator.
That’s bait.
That’s claiming that in 2013 Gaijin set up the December update schedule to in 2024 add the Thai tech tree in the December update… like how can anyone think that?
That’s bait.
That’s bait.
Sweden in WW2 is fake.The Maus rolling over bridges is fake.Cold war tanks facing WW2 in many cases is fake.Modern MBTs on WW2 maps is fake,Five nations fighting each other in one air battle is fake. So much of this game is just Historical gibberish .I have been told by the game and the fan base that I must forget about historical line ups ,era separation and any notion of WW2 so I have and now this lunacy comes about.
So what is to replace them? Some debatable history and extremely tenuous link resulting in more copy paste?
This is a silly game where all you do is take a zone as an excuse to shoot at each other,it makes no attempt to be historical or factual. Sweden vs Germany in WW2 vehicles fighting in a mid west town in the 60s? WTF?
