Japan and Sweden have nowhere near the amount of jets the US has and will ever have in game. Those jets were only used by those nations and no other nations in game. They are important, iconic domestic vehicles.



You overlooked the primary reasoning. All F-5A production was intended for Military Assistance Program [MAP] and export, but the ones the US did take for use (such as the "Skoshi Tiger") were modified and later redesignated as F-5C. Those that were not, were used for training and exercises. So specifically the F-5A variant we have coming is the least applicable t

The development of all those things you speak about is entirely seperate and inconsequential to each other. One part does not come "instead of" the other. One thing has not been prioritized above another.

Comment

The US is not getting an F-5 this update. I already said it would be possible in the future with other modifications. But the version coming is the primary export version.

Comment

You misunderstood. The question I was answering is will the USA specifically get the F-5A. To which I was responding, they will not because it was a variant used for export and other countries.


The USA used it only for evaluation, training and research. They have other possible later variants for themselves in the future.

Comment

We have those when they are last resorts or not much else to add generally. The US is already swarmed with jets and has tones of them. It is not in direct need of something it never used operationally (This specific variant, other modifications were) and when the aircraft, was by design and intention for other nations as an export fighter. It was used far more by everyone else than the US.


As I also said, whilst this specific variant is not joining the US tree for now. There are other variants and modifications that are possible in the future.

SMS Kaiser was the lead ship of the Imperial German dreadnought battleship class, built in the years leading up to the outbreak of WWI. Soon, this Great War naval veteran will once again be joining the ranks of the German navy as it arrives in War Thunder naval battles as part of the next major update “Ixwa Strike” coming to the game!



Briefly: An Imperial German dreadnought battleship, incorporating steam turbine propulsion combined with heavy protection and substantial firepower.


SMS Kaiser, battleship, Germany, rank V.

Not the F-5A for now. Since it was only used for training and testing. However other variants may be possible in the future for them.


This was produced as an export fighter. The US had little interest in it.

A sneak peak at the first major update of 2021 for War Thunder — 'Ixwa Strike'!

The theme is centered around the Centurion, as that's the main reward. It's not an Italian connection and the theme is set around the rewards. Not the other way around.

Comment

The pass contains 3 months worth of content entirely for free. The premium version contains additional content on top of that, whilst all the other events, warbond and other ways of obtaining free rewards also continue alongside this.

Comment

We never said to expect it soon.


There is no delay. Vehicles come when they can come. Sometimes that depends on info/pictures/sources, others external factors. But we never said you should expect it or that its coming soon. So your disappointment is entirely self created in this area.

Ah damn you got me. 50 Shermans inbound )))

Thats not always the case. Even when we add things that improve balance and full gaps, some still take It as a negative. So I'm just saying, it won't be to everyone's taste.


Edit: nevermind I missed the sarcasm )))

Comment

Italy should be getting something(s) that a lot of Italian players were asking for. But it's nothing huge, not top tier and most likely someone will be mad at )))


But significant for balance and gap filling none the less.

Comment

It would be and we are working on it. But they can't all come at once unfortunately.
