- 8 × 127mm unguided rockets under wings and
- 1 × 150 gallon fuel or napalm tank under fuselage or

I dont think everything should be added to the game but some sort of balance should be maintained. that does not mean a one for one analogue of every weapon. that is everyone does not need assault rifles at every br like germany. nor does germany need a semi auto gl. on the other-hand germany needs a br3 sniper (the g41 scoped) and the us needs a br4 mg, rifle and sniper.
the g14 with cannons rockets amd bombs would be a perfect match for the tiger cat. it make a great plane to counter the g14 with heavy cannons, rockets and fire everything is better with fire and every cat deserves a warm meal. the tigercat is already in warthunder making it easy to add to enlisted. it be great at br5 with nearly 400 made it be a great addition to the game.

Yeah but the most needed things are planes for Japan and US since that’s the main selling point for this factions and we have very few options. There is other stuff also needed but not having enough planes in the main plane factions is just bad.
i agree while the japanese army was almost obsolete, the navy was at the start of the war superior to the us, and in some cases so was the air force, the japanese army air force and airfore and navel airforec in game is down right a crime.

Well compared to the US army yes but compared to the British and Chinese the Japanese army did well. Simply US and USSR and Germany had huge production capabilities. UK and Japan where easily outmatched by this nations. Japan in southeast Asia destroyed the British army and they specialized jungle-warfare. British Empire had superior potential strength overall, but its inability to concentrate forces in Asia really made the Japanese army the stronger army in Asia then the British. US at the other hand could project military might at every place on Earth. Compared to USA or USSR yes Japan was obsolete but if you compare them to the British they are more evenly matched. And even compared to Germany Japan had superior navy. The Japanese Air capability in 1942 where far better then the British. Supermarine Seafire was on trials in 1942 meanwhile the Japanese dominated the sea battles with the Zero. The British carriers where just bad compared to the US and the Japanese only at the end of the war they managed to catch up with the Seafire.
400 only if you count every single version that isnt the proposed F7F-3…

| So acording to this it was only 175 planes at most but then it would still include post war production, which clearly should not be counted. |

The plane could work as a BR 5 fighter plane but the numbers given by you where just off making it seam more common as it actualy was by a wide margin.
yes the japanese infantry was comparable to the uk colonial forces in asia, not the armor, the uk was supporting forces at the end of there logistics at the start of the war japan their own back yard. japanese armor never grew beyond antiquated heavy tanks and light tanks. they failed to develop a medium tank in any numbers. the japanese failed to produce smgs in meaningful quantities before the end of the war. i wont mention semi autos as the british used bolties till the end of the war.
the japanese failed to produce meaningful numbers of at rockets even the piat would have been a better choice. japan used machine guns that are fed by stripper clips not exactly ww2. the japanese army did the best it could but the fact it often suffered higher losses while on defense proves the disparity. the uk provided all its weapons it did not send to asia to the exp force that landed in europe, the uk had early ww2 weapon just not in ww2 number even for early ww2. so yes japan did well for what it had but at best it was an interwar army at the start of ww2, it like germany had the advantage of momentum with experience they won in spite of their equipment.
Well armor was not very needed in the Pacific however in China the lack of Armor was very bad at the end of the war. But the navy was far more important even a Ha-Go was better then no tank specially for the Jungles. Japan also had problem with SMGs but so did the British but at least they found an easy solution with the Sten Japan simply didn’t. However the main factor Japan was winning was the aircraft carriers since UK had good ones but didn’t had good aircraft to put on them. Japan had less aircraft carriers but they where combined with good aircrafts meanwhile the UK navy air force was obsolete for the majority of the war the underfunding hit them badly they had no capable navy fighter for the majority of the war.
which is why i said the japanese nave could be considered at the star to mid war of best to one of the best in the world. the zero best naval fighter at the start of the war. carrier among the best purpose built carriers and cruiser heavy and light. submarines strong at the start then fell behind failed to use them as commerce raiders.
failed to make destroyers and destroyer escorts/frigates/corvettes in meaningful numbers as well as escort carriers. just like germany they failed to make strategic bombers but the airforce was comparable to many. oh also the army navy yeah the jaoanese army and navy hated each other even more than the use at least the us only started with the army having its own airfore and never gave it its own nave. but the jp army invented the assault ship. so yes that japan went from a regional to a global naval power in a few decades is id say miracle but that would insult visionaries’ like yamamoto. before the yamamotoi and musashi many of the jp battleships were very interwar baseline or below compared to superior designs in every major navy us, uk, italy, france, germany.
navy a+ airforce b army c-
navy superior to any power including the us in the pacific, or any other navy sae the us and uk it totality french italians, germans and ussr
air force comparable at the start of the war with weaknesses and strengths
army one of the most experienced best trained but adequality armed with antiquated weapons.
That was the most interesting part. No cooperation between them 
Yeah the navy and the air force where capable the aircraft carriers where really the biggest Strength Japan had do to their offensive capabilities.
japan unlike china latter developed a carrier force with little if any help from there short alliance with the british. if not for the overly strict requirements of the japanese flying core. the shallow jp fighter core hurt them even by mid pacific war. if i recall the japnese had a fourth carrier available for midway but lacked either carrier planes or pilots to bring it to bear. also a rigid heiarchy prevented them from developing the damage control procedures the us did, not that much can save a carrier getting hit changing its payload on the deck and on the elevators. the drive to create the next generation zero caused them to neglect self sealing ft and armor. sorry i love complimenting the jp navy only really the uk and us had anything that could compare with or surpass jp development by the end of the war. just like germany they had faith in there codes far after it was merited. even rigged a war exercise for the jp navy to win.
The US started getting the upper hand they managed finally to beat the Zero however UK did not they relied on US support for fighters and had very few navy fighters of their own. F6F Hellcat was significant part of the UK navy fighters during the entire war.
They were allied the 76 mm armed firefly helped us tank formations a lot. Uk broken the enigma code, the special relationship working. Yeah after midway and the turkey shoot the jp was sending out raw recruits in increasingly obsolete planes to fight the exact opposite. No country on earth could compare to a us economy turned to war.
are you serious? is this ironic? do you not remember how you were basically going “only US is allowed to have good planes” last night? are you making this suggestion out of spite?
The g 14 sucks… you don’t need something to counter it as you already have a fighter with the best aircraft cannon par from hispanos and 8 HVARs
What. The. Hell? Then no! US doesn’t need BRIV lmg… that’s all the other factions specialities… no! germany doesn’t need BR3 scoped semi… that’s the other factions uniqueness!
No! US doesn’t need BRIV rifle… for one they cried for johnson to bet downtiered forever… secondly no! that’s unique for the other factions
you’re only using your stupid logic when it benefits you… i reallllllly hope this post is ironic.
you simultaneously disagree with symmetrical balance but then advocate it directly in the next sentence… nice.
Wow it’s funny that you didn’t disagree with any of the suggestions I made about Germany funny that
No I said Germany can get any planes as good as the us until the us gets tanks as good as the t2h and Ferdinand, it can get better attackers just not as good
Funny how you cherry pick comments that don’t align with you’re victim mentality
The delusion is that armor of the allies the us/uk has caught up with the axis especially at br 4 and most of all br5 it has not
The us gets better attackers and Germany gets better tanks untill us gets something better than the 26e1 like the e5 germany does not need the f9 that is better than the p47
Jumbo = Panther
Pershing = Tiger 1
Super Pershing = Tiger 2H
The F-9 is definitely better than the P-47. It has a better top speed and turn rate, more maneuverability, doesn’t fly like a brick like the FW 190 series, and has several .50 caliber machine guns.It can carry several rockets, which, unlike its German counterpart, are ineffective against infantry due to a lack of TNT in its rockets and would only be effective against tanks.An E-75 is suitable for your Fantasy Tank

One read the first part of you’re writing you say one thing then lay out poor proof of the exact opposite statement in the second part
The 50 cal is great against planes but a poor gun for strafing infantry compared to 20mm much less 30mm
Strafing at high speeds means bigger guns that don’t require direct hits beat smaller bullets u
In higher numbers
The German planes gets nearly twice as many and I am betting there great tank killers
It also gets a 500 kg or 1000 pound bomb vs the p47s 500 lb or 250 kg bomb
Second the 26e5 has thinner armor then that monster and a weaker gun so can I have some of you ‘candy’ because it’s clear you in a better place than me
