T-44-100 or IS-100 (Object 245 / Object 248) is must for soviet tech tree.

Both tanks are already in WT.

The PDM smg is already in game, no? It was a gold order. I like it, behave a bit like a mp40.

I’d honestly just use an upgunned T-38 with the same TNSh gun as on T-60. Would fit thematically as a Soviet counterpart to Ka-M if Manchuria specifically was to be released, even if it probably wasn’t used during the operation, but this conversion was common enough on Russian Far East.

Same with the IL-10.

For some reason my mind tried to tell me that there was another IL that wasn’t the 37 in the game. Indeed IL-10 is in the game. There’s still plenty of other planes that could be added to teir V though. Guess I should have looked :sweat_smile:. I’d be all right with the T-18 as well. Just folder it with the T-60.
