WW2 Vehicle Wishlist/War Thunder Seemingly no Longer Supporting WW2 Additions

Finnish T-50 “Nikki” Has been added to the Dev server as a 3.0 Premium vehicle.

We all hoped it would be a Researchable Tech-Tree addition to fill the gap between the Finnish T-28 and T-34, But there was not any considerations for that i guess. Same as the KV-1 (1942)

Seems like finnish vehicles are Destined to only be Premiums / Event vehicles

Seems like they were satisfied with adding so many WW2 Free Researchable vehicles So one nation needed to take the fall and this time it was unfortunately Finland

Shame it been that way with every recent update adding a ww2 finnish vehicle. Like the Pyerremyrski and KV-1

Really sucks. Many unique Finnish airframes are premiums. There are also few unique Finnish planes to even add

Tomorrow I’ll start preparing for the 5th anniversary of the last Japanese Tech Tree aircraft from before 1946. I’ll prepare a complete list of all possible Japanese aircraft that were ignored by Gajin. That’s bound to be a lot of work…

There was a suggestion for the G10N on the old forum, so I guess you could suggest it. Although it’s worth remembering that the old forum also included suggestions for vehicles that never were built (the jet-powered P1Y) and unarmed ones (the Ki-15). Although I’m not certain those engines were exclusive to the G10N.

I can send you sources about the G10N tomorrow if needed.

(Vehicle-specific parts (i.e. guns, powerplants, etc.) were built )

Better to ask the mods first before you potentially waste your time. I think since the engines are unique you should be fine, but it is good to double-check.

I haven’t seen mention on this thread about the upcoming low tier Hungarian WW2 air subtree being added next update, it’s 7 new planes, with only one being copy-paste, and several very interesting additions such as the largely forgotten WM-21 and the obscure prototype fighter WM-23. I think these additions show a pretty serious effort by the snail to model WW2 stuff (all 7 are WW2 aircraft, and all are researchable) and give us hope on this topic.

Update :

i think the G10N would be fine gajin could choose different engines

Nakajima HA54 engine (5,000hp in take-off) ×6

Variant 1: Nakajima HA44 engine (2,500hp in take-off) ×6

Variant 2: Mitsubishi HA50 engine (3,000hp in take-off) ×6

I remember I wrote about G10N, but it wasn’t accepted, even provided all the sources and evidence :(
But alas… I hope it’ll be accepted here at least.

Weren’t there different configurations of the fuselage? Well, at least we can get the Ki-91

suggestion was declined maybe because i did not give enough information or a good reason?!
eee

maybe they need more proof i don’t know were i could find more proof of exiting parts for it :(

Yeah, actually now that I remember, I don’t think the Ha-54 engines were ever completed. I don’t think we can get any of the more advanced bombers other than the Ki-91 and G8N variants.

Are you in the Japanese vehicle discord?

There was the Ha-50 engine that was potentially built for the Kawasaki TB bomber, but that’s kinda dubious
