/!\ Work in Progress /!\
This project is still incomplete and in the process of being updated.
The objective of this project is to fill the gaps, get rid of copy paste, and generally improve the Chinese ground tech tree in a way that makes it comparable to the other bigger tech trees ingame, as unrealistic as that may be. The vehicles I have added range from being serially produced to being unfinished prototypes, however they ALL fit gaijin's standards for introduction, and as such they all have a suggestion for their individual ingame addition that you can find on the WT ground suggestions forum. Many vehicles have been left outside this tech tree not because unfit for being added to the game but because they would be simply unneeded and would be better off as premium/event/squadron vehicles (primarly export variants such as the VT and ST series or the Sino-Pakistani MBTs). The vehicles that have been removed from the tech tree are visible to the side, they wouldn't be researchable anymore but those people that did research them would still be able to play with them. Also, some in-game vehicles received a name-change for better recognition.
Lines are separeted the following way:
- Light Tanks and IFVs line; (15 vehicles)
- Medium and Heavy tanks line; (21 vehicles)
- Tank destroyers and SPGs line, (19 vehicles)
- SPAAG line; (13 vehicles)
- ROC Light and Medium tanks line. (16 vehicles)
VEHICLES THAT HAVE BEEN FULLY SUBSTITUTED INSTEAD OF BEING JUST HIDDEN
- T-26 Mod.39 -> T-26 Mod.33 (China never used the Mod.39)
- SU-76M -> SU-76 (the USSR sold the outdated model to China)
- M10 -> M10 (type 91) (China never used the standard M10 as they where delivered to them unarmed, as such they armed them with a Japanese gun and added a roof)
