General Japanese & JASDF General Discussion

Y’know this would be a 10/10 update if I finally got this part of my tank.

So has anyone been able to test ASM-1/ 2 on the dev server and have an opinion about its usefulness? I tried to look for a video about it but no luck

They are still unusable

have we ever figured out what radar was planned for J6K1 or was it just “if the military is interested then we’ll make one for the plane later” thing cause im 100% sure its not FK-3 like people think

Found some footage of zero and reppu flying along side each other.

It is not Reppu but Ki-43 Hayabusa. Both flying at US tests

from bad quality video its hard to tell
thanks for correction

Name of planes is said on Japanese from video where said about tests of A6M and Ki-43 Hayabusa and also you can clearly check missing gear covering

Did they change the Zero or my memory wrong? Why the self-sealing tank on A6M5 mod. 52 gone?

(For those who doesn’t know chinese it just said "Fuel Tank, non self-sealing)

Only the A6M5 Hei has self sealing fuel tanks.

Is there any reason why the OCU can’t use 8 mavericks?
Or is it just an arbitrary decision?

OCU is a flying corpse, gaijin just giving more reasons to bury it xD

I don’t see why they would limit it, but they did. I doubt irl they restricted the use of 8x Mavericks.
