Please Darkflow, I beg you. :clap: Really would like to see the weapon + unit in the TechTree. As written in the title: the british glider-borne paratroopers of the 6th Airborne Division used that weapon. And it’s really time to add paratroopers to the TechTrees :slight_smile:

  • designed in 1943
  • over 527.428 were produced
  • first combat during invasion of Normandy in June 1944
  • known for its “really much better handling than earlier models”
  • lenght was 29,9 inches (760mm)
  • barrel lenght was 7 inches (180mm)

Yes, tech tree paratroopers should be a thing, and adding the Sten Mk5 to the tech-tree could be a interesting Br III weapon alternative to the Thompsons. Though maybe it’ll handle more like a Lanchester 2.0 (therefor be a Br II weapon), if so then might as well also add the Sterling/Patchett while they’re at it for that BR III spot, both tiers needs more options for the US!

Also, I am once again asking the powers at be for the ability to field full subfaction lineups from the tech-tree! It’s a disgrace!
