I already know that’s what people will say. XM1302 will be leaked in the first set of leak lists. Then it will be leaked as a premium or event in the second set, after it’s been hyped up (just like the T58). Then people will complain (rightfully so) because another US high caliber light tank won’t be TT, but people will say “oh but you got Stingray”.

Are we getting this fully and only British design added to our tree?

The XM1302 is developed by BAE’s US subsidiary “BAE systems Inc.” While BAE is British headquartered, it’s US operations are legally and operationally distinct.

Furthermore, most of the XM1302’s design was inherited from the M8 AGS and obtained by BAE’s US division through the acquisition of “United Defense Industries” who in turn had obtained it from the original designer FMC. OP said as much in the suggestion post, if you read it.

So the XM1302 is for all intents and purposes a US vehicle

It’s delusion and ragebait, I can say the Eurofighter should be in the US tree because it uses American missiles…

Brit mains think everything made in the USA is actually theirs because a screw holding a headlight on was at one point licked by a British person in a dream they had 10 years ago.

Why would Britain get it? Only the US ever trialed it and it’s sitting in the armored museum at fort benning.

But in all seriousness I do want something like the XM8 for Britain

Can’t tell, are these spall liners in the last picture (on the left)?

VFM 5: exist

Talking more than 10.0, VFM5 is equal to the Stingray

And it’s in the tech tree. For whatever reason, the US can’t get anything related to the XM8 program in the tech tree (I know VFM 5 has no relation to XM8, buts its extremely similar to CCVL and we couldn’t even get that in the tech tree). I guess we got the Stingray now, but it only took them a couple years, and it still isn’t even XM8 related. We still got a couple more variants left, here’s to hoping.

Well, that’s up to the Commonwealth subtree

America is a minor nation that should have been added to Britain anyways, we all agree, unfortunately Gaijin hates us

One hell of way to redefine the word “small” to a country that supply all its main tank for other countries to paste in game.

But, whatever. Gaijin can always make an excuse to add sth even if it does not exist.

Like Austria size small, Britain could also recieve a Tomcat in the far distant future that’ll get added to US
