  • 5th gens, anime girl crossover event, and what the hell am I gonna do with a mv-22 osprey, gaijin?! 

    I DO want that ka-1, foldered bonus, a 3rd daily task (as long as the BP goals don’t get pushed), and that ghostbusters decal though. 

    These suggestions should be from wt forum users and approved by them, not gaijin

    .. I don’t bother reading these .. There’s plenty of suggestions from years ago that still haven’t been added .. so take these reads with a tonne of salt

    These suggestions should be from wt forum users

    It already is.

    and approved by them, not gaijin

    Lol, get the fuck out of here. Why do you want people who won't be responsible of adding those vehicles to the game to decide on what gets approved? Fucking idiotic.

    Forum users vote Yes to everything because they don't have to make choices. It's easy to approve every moronic suggestion you're not the one implementing them.

    We had 3rd daily in 2017

    Yeah, it was in the old warbond shop, which was monthly, rotated 3 colors of money and excess warbonds weren't transferable.

    The MV-22B does get hydra/APKWS pods, AGM-176, and a belly mounted turret so it could be pretty good for infantry.

    Also it looks dope as fuck

    Mv-22 probably for infantry

    But doesn't infantry mode has preset vehicles you can use? Meaning you can't take out any heli/tank you want.

    Probably will be static vehicle or AI controlled

    Anime Grill crossovers but no exclusive crew voicelines. Smh

    (as long as the BP goals don’t get pushed)

    Good one. You know exactly how that's gonna go.

     what the hell am I gonna do with a mv-22 osprey, gaijin?! 

    Aura farm and Os-pray you don't get hit.

    Isn't the mv-22 largely unarmed? I mean I really like the aircraft but something with no armament just doesn't have a place in war thunder at the moment... Maybe if they introduced a world war mode where vehicles and supplies need to be moved or something but at the moment it would just be novelty without function

    The MV-22 can carry hydra/APKWS rocket pods along with AGM-176 missiles.

    It basically can function as a AC-130

    tbh it'd be really cool if for the infantry mode, if a utility helicopter without heavy weapons stays landed it acted as a spawn point for a set number of squads, so things like a basic huey could spawn one or two squads before needing to RTB and heavier stuff like the MI-8, could spawn several.

    Similar to how APC's work in enlisted, but less of a magic clown car.

    I know that I will be for sure skipping any anime related event gaining does.

    High speed rocket rushes if they put it in the helicopter tree

  • my problem with Gaijin adding this 5th gen aircraft is that most documents of these is highly classified and Gaijin will mostly implement its performance by just guessing. And surely they will buttfuck those 2 aircraft

    Lack of documents didnt stop them adding modern tanks

    Comparing aviation technology and tank technology is kind of stupid.

    Of course they can add modern tanks because the info on tanks is 10x easier to guesstimate than jets. And modern tanks rarely change so that makes it even easier to guess. Jets are more tricky and the info on them is nigh impossible to "correctly" get.

    info on tanks is 10x easier to guesstimate than jets

    Yet they failed at guesstimating armor profiles for leclercs, ariete, challengers etc.

    it's much easier to add modern tanks when they literally don't accurately model any of their fire control and electronics systems

    I will add the F-22 suggestion was very thoroughly detailed.

    While you are entirely right about the F-22, J-20, and to a degree the Sukhoi, F-35A is the most widespread stealth jet ever built and it’s developed and manufactured by a giant conglomerate that’s made up of dozens and dozens of subcontractors. There are tons of university papers and easily available engineering studies on it. While you can’t google the precise RCS of it, there is much more information available than most people think.

    and they prolly still wont add all the sensors and networking that is a big part of gen 4.5 and 5

    And you know what that means for the Sukhois lol

    Most of top tier is paper. But god forbid you add some prototype ww2 stuff or mockups. Yikes

    You already know they're just gonna bullshit and buff the planes (you know which one specifically) that will extremely underperform IRL

    Don’t worry they will make sure NATO underperforms.

    5th gen planes have been in flight sims based on speculative performance for 30 years, why’s it suddenly matter w/ wt

    warthunder is not a mil sim so it doesnt really matter how they implement their performance. its a game made for entertainment purposes only

  • I like the idea that the suggestion of the F-22A had to be passed to the developers. As if they’d somehow completely forget about one of most iconic fighter jets of the modern era when implementing fifth gen.

    Seriously. Feels more like the suggestions are turning into a "this is what was agreed upon" than actual suggestions.

    Because it is

    "we are now accepting these specific suggestions!"

    Suggestions has always been nothing more than a way for Gaijin to pretend to listen to players. Having a suggestion get passed to the devs doesn't mean that vehicle is more likely to get added, it's just so they can "credit" the community once it does. For years it has been nothing but a way for players to discuss potential vehicles in a more formal format, and I say this as someone who has made 15 of them, the majority of which have been passed.

  • Germany getting a sodding challenger tank would be the dumbest thing ever.

    Edit: I think with a tank like this it should be a multi nation vehicle.

    Everyone can get germanys tanks but germany isnt allowed a testbed that has nothing to do with the bri ish besides the hull

    It shouldn't be added to Germany because they already have some candidates for larger gun tanks that can be added to their nation.

    The UK is more limited in options for that, so considering it's a challenger 2 hull, with a prototype challenger 3 turret that's been modified to fit the gun and autoloader, yes it should go to the UK.

    “Everyone can get Germany’s tanks”

    Well except Britain

    Genuinely.

    Best case scenario would be Britain getting it as a TT vehicle and Germany gets it as an event so atleast it will be limited on their side.

    Germany has an option for a 130mm armed mbt with the Panther. Let alone the 140mm Leopard variants they and Switzerland has that they will end up getting.

    Britain doesn't have any concrete 140mm tanks that could be added. There is potentially a Challenger 140mm but we only have a couple examples of gun barrels and no evidence they were mounted. Then there is the E.N.T which only had the autoloader built and might have made use of the same gun barrel.

    If they get the Challenger 130 as well I don't want to hear any moaning if Canadian Leopards get added to the British tree. Bad enough the Class 3P is in the German tree despite it being built by South Africa.

    I mean, If Canadian Leopards get added to Britain would still be retroactively shared between the nations so Britain still doesn't win much of anything unique besides a copy 2A4 and 2A6 with extra weight. Germany already has the more unique Canadian Leos.

    Yea unfortunately. Atleast the C2A1 is an event and the 2A4M CAN can be hidden from purchase and replaced with a Swiss Leopard or something.

    I would just be happy to have Canada together in one tree finally. And hopefully have them be TT so that they aren't locked behind a paywall.

    In an ideal world, Canada would be kept together and Germany wouldn't recieve the Challenger 130 but that is wishful thinking.

    They got the Vickers mk7

    I don't think the US or China have any either, at least not that I can think of. Maybe Isreal too?

    Germany will get this, while Gaijin never gives Germany its own top tier stuff when it’s needed, they love giving Germany stuff from other nations

    They have the best Hunter variant (British built)

    They got the Franco-German df-105 years before France

    They got the Astro-French SK-105 despite having nothing to do with it

    Agreed. I’m ignoring your sarcasm.

    And yet everyone and their mother can get Leos? Because at this rate, who doesn't get Leopard 2s?

    Britain

    The vicker mk7 technically still uses a leo 2 hull

    Someone else pointed it out, technically the Vicker Mk7 is a Leo 2 with an altered turret. Seriously though, Germany is one of the few nations where folks go "No, they can't have it.". While Germany itself doesn't even have the best Leo 2 currently in game.

    It’s the same thing that always comes up when East German vehicles are brought up.

    Copy paste is no good, unless it’s German vehicles. And now people want to copy and paste this into the British tree as well.

    It's kinda hilarious. German produced vehicles go to other countries because "export", not for Russia and co though. And vehicles Germany actually fielded aren't added because "copy paste".

    But not even having the best Leo 2 is a bit of a joke. And now more nations going to get Leo 2s.

  • lol Challenger 130mm for Germany was definitely not on my bingo card this year.

    While it makes sense in a technological sense, that being its developed by mainly a german company, it doesnt make sense to be added to GER as they have better options such as the KF-51 panther

    Its also on, yknow, a Challenger tank. A 6000lb gun doesn't automatically make the other 120000lbs irrelevant. Nobody would ever argue that the M48 with a 105 is suddenly British, or that a MiG-15 is.

    The vickers mk7 is in the British tree while using a leopard hull. As a matter of fact we have a few other tanks in game that use a leopard hull or another German tank hull that aren’t in Germany’s tech tree.

  • Another Type-16 to Japan...

    Bangdream event, why bangdream though, is it the only one that gets suggested?

    I have a feeling that they are going the Ace Combat x Idolm@ster way.

    Maybe all we'll be seeing will be just decal, camo, or premium clone, besides they removed Kisarazu from sale.

    Then they better add special crew Voice line

    they passed the mami f-16 from ace combat as a suggestion, among other collabs, unlikely any of it gets in

    Another Type-16 to Japan

    And i bet it'll be added ASAP cause they can just copy paste it again

    Yeah, only need do do some modelling on the turret and a little bit on the body

    Though I don't know what it brings to the table, what does the RWS even provide in war thunder

    Really wish they'd just open up DMM events to global and re-run past collabs.

    I have wanted the Area 88 and Strike Witches skins/player icons for years.

  • The Kv-13 and the Leclerc terminateur certainly seem interesting.

  • How would the osprey work? I mean, it would be a cool as fuck vehicle, but the helicopters that just have tiny machine guns are just shit to suffer with on the grind. I’d hate to see such a cool vehicle be added to the game just to be useless.

    I think it would be cool if we had massive battles that gave utility helicopters a role like giving tanks on the. Battlefield more ammo and crew members. But we’d never get something like that.

    The osprey can carry rocket pods and AGM-176 missiles so it won’t be completely useless.

    Dude the Osprey is the size of a building. It would be completely useless because it would have to be in a BR where radars/proxy are common. You wouldn't even be able to take off.

    It could work in the infantry mode technically though.

    I can see this going one of 2 ways

    • What if the blackhawk was even worse

    • Evil ratty plane that gets to first spawn at heli bases

    I think it'll get to first spawn rocket rush if it gets added. That's the only way to really make it worth adding.

    Oh, that would be awesome.

    I bet you could hear it the moment it spawns.

    I live near a USMC air base. They are LOUD.

  • Lie Ying Falcon Gyrocopter and the J-35 lol

    Lie Ying Falcon Gyrocopter Vs direct strike from a Osa

  • Isn’t the Rafale F3 we have in game basically an F4 in all but name. I guess the F4 could bring new missiles like the MICA IR and the Meteor. Italy once again getting shafted by getting the F35B instead of the F35A

    The F3 we have ingame could already use MICA IR and Meteor if added ingame.

    The main new stuff for the F.4.x would be the 1000kg variants of the AASM (and we already lack the 150 and 500kg variants), and probably MICA NG and new variants of some stuff.

    They're prolly gonna make it different by giving it the more advanced versions of what our current F3s get. IE, Mica IR, wonder if they'll got Meteor or Mica NG. Perhaps some new ground ordinances hopefully storm shadow.

    No the current F3R doesn't have capabilities of the F4. And the only thing that make it a F3R are the AESA radar and paveways.

  • Why the Su-47? The thing was never armed with anything, not missiles, a gun, or even a radar. And nothing to say anything was planned cor it either it simply doesn’t have anything.

    Because it’s the perfect thing for a premium.

    But adding an experimental aircraft that was never intended to carry weapons or avionics is fucking retarded. It makes just as much sense to add as the X-15 as the Su-47. The Su-47 was built to only test forward-swept wings and composite materials, and after those experiments were completed it got abandoned in a storage yard where it's rotting to this very day. The only plans to arm it were a PROPOSAL by sukhoi years after it got abandoned to export an armed variant of it which never went anywhere, not even into plans being made.

    They have already denied experimental aircraft like the EAP for the very same reasons, there should not be any exception made to make the Su-47 possible.

    Yeah but consider: cool plane

    I'm only half-joking. I suspect that, if accepted, it's because the Su-47 spent a very long time being treated as the unofficial Russian next gen fighter. It's an iconic jet.

    That's a very strange misconseption.
    Also people are saying it's 5th gen, which it isn't.

    Misconceptions around the latest jets are not, nor have they ever been rare.

    Yet they will add it with some crazy air to air and ground ordnance.

    Edit: and some magical flight performance

    Trust me I’m on your side. I completely agree.

    They made space for the radar/weapons. In my opinion that is more than enough for Gaijin to think about adding it.

    Not saying that it is the right call but eh, wouldn't care much. Forward swept wings are ebic

  • So basically:

    More modern jets with no datas except Gaijin’s mind. Basically getting the ‘’you asked for it’’ card in case players complain about the performances/loadout/implementation/etc…

    The tanks, well anything unique will not be added, let’s just keep to copypaste or make it premium

    Helis: unless something has FnF, it’s basically 400 RP grind for a cool skin (it’s free food for the AAs)

    Boats: more boats, more dev time for modeling these who takes hours, in an abysmal gamemode that has 3/4 of a team filled with bots. Improving the gamemode is gonna make people play naval, not just adding new boats and changing for the 10th time the damage system. Actual waste of time, that could be used to improve aldready existing content

    Miscellaneous: I guess they did do some QoL improvements the last few updates, so let’s see what they do

    Are you honestly surprised?

    I saw the suggestion and instantly went "What the fuck is this shit" when I saw the Osprey of all things.

    I believe there's a 50/50 chance of the Osprey being really good or useless.

    Obviously it's going to be really easy to kill with that being a major controversy IRL, but being able to first spawn something with aircraft speeds could be interesting.

    I feel like if you spawned at the far out helibase and got up to speed you could pull off some nasty hit and runs before CAP spawns. 

    All they do is add vehicle assets to this broken vehicle museum/storefront/cqc arena.

  • Ka-52M

    More LMUR spam when we could instead get AShM spam from the Ka-52K instead

  • Isnt it kinda lame, when half of the Air suggestions are planes that are going to come *anyway* at some point?

  • Challenger 130 for germany and not the uk, lmfao even, germany REALLY needs them not like uk has been stuck with bottom tier tanks for forever

    su47 atleast though

    the 130 would have actually offered something new to the uk, the chally that got passed for the uk has nothing special apart from a slightly stronger engine, black night and 2e are still better due to the shorter reload and 1500hp/aps

    Ehh it’d also be better armoured than the prototype Chally if they give it the full Epsom package which covers the sides and LFP and presumably give it the spall lining it should have so it’d be a pretty good second to the 2E then, the 130mm would be fun though but deffo should be British

    After all the things they did to the uk top tiers i have my doubt its gonna be good, the chally 3 td was somewhat equal to the 2e because of the hp but worse because of the reload, now its just worse in both which im sure is actually realistic but yeah

    Germany has kf51 panther and 2a8. Let bri’ish eat for once and i dont even have top tier uk

  • Let's keep an eye on the hands.

    Currently, 2 tasks are given: 2 + 3 = 5 points.

    There will be 3 tasks given: 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 points.

    And of course, the permission to purchase the task will move to 3 tasks.

    Who's ready to farm?

    P.S. And of course, "You asked for it."

    The suggestion mentioned keeping the permission to purchase the task at the 2nd task, but it’s Gaijin so we’ll see.

  • Woo Korea mentioned!! (Even though it's North Korea 😑) Also the Ka-1 would be funny to see

    Manpad mbts

    Indeed and just about everything else that can have them lol but I prefer SK vehicles but I will definitely give the NK ones a try when they get added

    I'm surprised that not a lot of people are talking about this, is it a test for the tank upon the upcoming Korea announcement? The weird thing is that seems that it would be a premium for Italy due to Eritrea being a colony of Italy of course instead of sending it to the URSS(which I get why but still)

  • Where are my cute anime voice lines for my weeb tanks gaijin?

    Her name is Kate from the War Thunder Cinematic Universe, not Jake from West Virginia.

  • With the Chally 130mm and the Leclerc T4 passed we might finally see the big caliber update this year. If I remember correctly CATTB was passed in the old forums, same as Obj 195 and other big dakka stuff.

  • make bombers great again

  • Rb04 for SWEDEN PLEASE

  • A Bang Dream crossover is quite literally the last thing i expected to see from War Thunder.

    Something that shouldn't happen

  • I don't wa t any fantasy ships, even if they are in the German tech tree

    Sadly, too late. The Bullshitkov already made that call.

  • And look at that the a150s on it.

  • All modern shit, ugh

  • Osprey, the fuck?

  • Super Yamato let’ssss gooooooo!

  • The only things in this entire list that seem even remotely interesting are the Ka, the Osprey, and the Su-47. Everything else feels like a Naval addition (lol, lmao even), or more top-tier nonsense that will be impossible to model correctly and only exists as a means to grab more money.

    If I ever see the F-22 or F-35, it'll probably be time to stop playing top-tier.

  • RB 04's eh? Sounds like they're hinting at the Swedish navy! (Cope)

  • Really they never passed the Avenger before. But the issue is wtf would you even put that. LAV-AD is 10.0 and the chapperal is 9.0. Heck with how IR and helis interact even at 9.3 you'd still be better of with the M247.

  • The f4 rafale can carry 10 micas but okay 😔

  • Ok look more top tier shit that won’t be remotely balanced. Give me the EA 18 growler so I can jam every anti air system

  • Wow, a bunch of suggestions to make top-tier worse, lol.

  • Watch it be DMM only q.q

    I already lost my other favourite series to that (World Witches). :'(

  • USS Missouri when?

  • Create/Edit Aircraft Loadouts During Matches

    Finally in the year of the Lord and Saviour Arado

    Still missing the ability to change the loadout without having to respawn.

    Really annoying have to reset the 15 min reward window in Air SB.

    Are you actually asking of an improvement of SB ? :-)))))

    I know, silly of me.

  • The KV-13 is probably the only thing I'd be slightly interested in but even still it's just another IS-1 and I can see it getting premium treatment or battle pass : /

    It would 100% be a battle pass vehicle. Probably same with the ME 410

    Is 1 with t34 76 gun lol

  • Why is the vt5 there when it's already on the game? Do they finally plan to buff it?

    The VT5 already in the game is the Bangladeshi model, which I believe is basically the 2018 VT5 but with some differences like no ERA on the hull and a manual instead of remoted controlled HMG.

    The Chinese VT5 with ERA is in the files ever since the Bangladeshi one got added. So now passing it as a suggestion is a bit weird

    That's the Bangladeshi model still, as it doesn't have a RCWS like the Chinese VT5, AFAIK Bangladeshi VT5's also never had any ERA mounted onto them, so it's weird in general that they made an uparmoured model for it.

    They might finally give us the TT version but even then I don’t know why it wasn’t passed as the ZTQ-15 and instead as the VT-5.

    The ZTQ-15 was passed a long time ago. The VT-5 and ZTQ-15 have some related features but are actually different tanks.

  • Oh hell yeah MV-22B. Gets some Hydra pods, AGM-176 and a belly mounted turret. Would be great for the infantry mode.

    Still want my guns-a-gogo……

  • I would love a Poland tech tree

  • 2027 will be the year of Yugo TTs....

  • I dont understand why projectile cam never seems to be suggested for ground forces? We have a lot of missiles and shit (AA and SPG) that follow cam would be awesome

    because it would be used like a drone to see the enemy team's exact positions at tiers where there are no drones, or the velocity of the shell would be so high that you'd see basically just a blur before impact.

    Cant it work like some other cameras, where the surrounding vehicles is just not there?
    There must be a "variable" that makes the camera not see any other tank/vehicle than just the one getting camerad

  • What the hell germany gonna do with a useless seaking helicopter. Why not the H145M

  • Oh hell nah, not 5th gen jet fighters. Also, for the love of God, do NOT give Germany a Challenger 3.

    BangDream collab sounds cool, though.

  • Give us a damn Latinoamerican Tech Tree!!!!

    And fix the bmpt72 ffs.

  • But if my RIO/WSO starts talking I'm gonna need to change his call sign.

  • Man I can’t wait for the F-22

  • Make GB Great again

  • The Me 410 is missing so many secondary armaments, its almost funny. I'm glad they may look into it more.

    There's the experimental 21cm rocket revolver from the post.

    1000kg bomb internally-ish mounted in the bomb bay

    2x MG 151/20 wing mounted gunpods (Bf 109G R6 modification)

    (Possible?) Experimental 4x MG 151/20s internally mounted in the bomb bay

    Wing racks for 2x 250kg or 4x 50kg bombs

    Experimental BK 3,7 cannon internally mounted in the bomb bay (Off the Ju 87G/Hs 129 B-2)

    Experimental Mk.214a 50mm cannon internally mounted in the bomb bay (Off the Me 262 A-1/U4)

    Me 410 B-5 which removed the rear turrets, bomb bay, and nose MG131s, kept the MG151/20s, and added radar and an under-slung torpedo.

  • nobody wants f35's gaijin

    I mean stealth will just be a gimmick where you can't see certain aircraft until they're at a certain distance, so in a way it will just add some dynamic playstyles to the current top tier meta. It won't be as groundbreaking as many think and might make the game even more interesting.

    Typhoon, Rafale and F-15EX will be overall better than F-35 in this game simply because they're faster, perform better and can carry more missiles. F-35 can only carry 4 missiles internally which isn't enough for top tier, and with how this game is, if you load external missiles it will completely cancel stealth and leave you in a slow fat plane.

    IIRC on the stealth vehicles we currently have, having an open bomb bay or external pylons still only increases the detection range from like 8km to 10km

    Thats not how it goes. Both F-35 and F-22 can supercruise without AB afaik - as long as they are not loaded with external weapons stations. Your F-15E wont necessarily fly faster, even at higher altitude, when its fully loaded with 22 AMRAAMs. This would mean they might have the upper hand in BVR (reduced RCS, higher launch speed).

    f-35 can't supercruise at all but i might be wrong about that

    Most of Fat Amy's competition like Typhoon, Rafale and F15EX have higher twr and speed. Just because F15EX can carry 22 amraams, doesn't mean you have to carry full load, especially with how short arb matches are. 10 missiles are enough to get through nearly every match, assuming you're not just firing them willy nilly.

    Their TWR is nearly identical, arguably 35A is better; F-15EX - this would depend what Gaijin will give them unfortunately. 

    The most significant difference will be the different drag coefficient (besides airframe limitations).

    It beast mode I believe it can carry 14 missiles overall (don't know if that's a myth tho). But you would get rid of its advantages doing that obviously. But they should at the very least model it's DAS system which gives it 360 degree hmd

    I dislike the CAS-ification of GRB as much as the next guy, but I can also see stealth being a factor there.

    Why not? Im sure many players do. They're coming whether you want them or not.

    just would be nice if they added a vehicle that isnt top tier every once in a while

    I totally agree, sadly it seems the top tier enjoyed are louder

    justice for early cold war and stuff under 10.7

    Well, after this they won't have much of a choice

  • 5th gens...this is so stupid lol

  • Damn, I forgot about that mine 3rd task suggestion.

    Well, this being passed on gives me more hope that it's possible that my suggestion about baltic country military decals being passed on.

  • Ahah ofc Germany isnt getting any 5th gen, as I predicted.

    Gaijin stated that they will only add active 5th gen users for now, and given the shenanigans around F-35 procurement I don't blame them.

  • Is that a real Challenger 3?

  • I was not prepared to see the F-22 lmao. Wonder how they’ll model stealth in jets and how various radars will interact with that. Maybe we’ll get proper AESA radar to deal with that? What I’m wondering is why they chose the J-35A and not a J-20 variant for China’s 5th gen. Is it just because the J-35 can carry PL-12s and they don’t want to add in PL-15s?

    leaks suggest that the J-20 will be added along with the F-22 and Su-57, so I'm guessing the J-35 is being considered for later

  • Honestly, I'd rather see the M-Class for Germany and the KH-2 for France, maybe later added to getmany

  • When Oplot for America?

  • Honestly excited for RIO/WSO voice acting. 

    But in-general: make an option for having more immersive voicelines. I want to feel the fear and panic of my crew like in GHPC; or Jester's voice, or something on similar level of fidelity, when I play WT. I understand this would raise ESRB rating probably, thats why it shouldnt be default - default is good as is now. But the option should be there 🫡

  • Man. Imagine flying the raptor? Jeeze

  • I’ve been playing since 2013 the hell does this mean? Does it means they will begin working on them or like what?

    It doesn't mean they are being added, it's simply just passed for the Developers to take a look at, then maybe they consider them one day

  • LMAO we're getting the Terminateur boyos

  • I like what I’m seeing so far!! Here are some American things I’d like to see in future updates:

    Aircraft: - Convair B-58 Hustler - Boeing B-52 Stratofortress - Republic XF-84 Thunderscreech (Event aircraft?) - B-32 Dominator - OV-1 Mohawk (A,B, or C?) - A-3 Skywarrior - A-5 Vigilante Tanks: - M4 Sherman Crocodile - T31 Demolition - M7 Priest - M12 Navy: (Battleships) - USS Missouri (BB-63) - USS Washington (BB-56) - USS North Carolina (BB-55) (Destroyers) - USS Johnston (DD-557) - USS Laffey (DD-724) - USS Kidd (DD-661)
