Insisting on annexing Cannakale is likely to backfire on Stalin; such an outrageous demand might end up with Roosevelt having a change of heart about Stalin's intentions.
Instead of the 7.92mm BESA, how about using the M1919 Browning in .303? The UK already has the license as the RAF is using them (also in .303), so wouldn't really be much of a stretch for the Army to also use Brownings.
Likely that Poland would get all of East Prussia since the Soviets don't occupy it and it was part of Poland's initial war aims.
For the rest of the German border, I'd imagine that the Polish-Prussian border pre-First Partition (plus Upper Silesia) would be a good basis, possibly with certain...
The British don't have any reparations from the Germans, though; even without American loans to pay off they might not have the money to build the N3s...
And even if they do, they'll probably be focused against the Germans as the closer threat.
Hmmmm, I'm somewhat wondering if it would have been better for the UK to adopt the BESA in .30-06 instead of 7.92mm Mauser, given how much arms from the US would factor into British planning...
Anyways, how is the A10 with the Meadows engine as a support vehicle for AAA/SP...
Isn't really much of a difference between the Mark I and Mark II since the Soviets are putting their own guns in them anyways (obviously with their own mountings) and the Mark I can be converted to the Mark II without too much effort.
Probably not mixed; I think that it's simply too early for mixed race people to have wide enough acceptance despite the greater progressiveness of TTL. (Unless they were the product of sexual crimes, which brings up its own can of worms)
My thought is maybe Palembang to try to disrupt Japanese oil production? If the war is going that badly for the Allies in the Pacific, that seems like the best target, using bombers based in the Cocos/Keeling Islands.
No, I'm saying that if it's called 75mm, people will get the idea to put unmodified 75mm shells case and all into the gun just because "it's a 75mm gun so it uses 75mm shells" even though they're (when unmodified) the wrong kind and are too small. Calling it 77mm solves that problem, just like...
well no, because then people will get the idea to put US 75mm shells in it (since Carden is already thinking about what will become the OQF 75mm); it's the same reason the British called the 77mm HV the 77mm HV when it was in 76.2mm to avoid confusion with other 3-inch tank guns like the OQF...
Still confused that the 75mm HV is still in 75mm given that it's even using the same projectiles as the 17pdr.

It's likely that the Black Prince (if it even is a thing) will be designed to take a Meteor or at least a more powerful engine from the beginning, to be honest; given how the idea of aero engines in tanks is already pretty widespread (unless you're Nuffield).
Have the Victor use a (76.2mm) 77mm gun rather than the 75mm since it's already a calibre they're familiar with and have lots of tooling for, and just remanufacture US 75mm projectiles to have slightly thicker driving bands if you're so concerned about using US shells.
The British Army is going...
There's been an update where Carden has been thinking about a follow up tank to the Victor and its armament; he was thinking about a 94mm shell like the 3.7 inch gun but with the shell casing of the 4 in l/45 naval gun...
