Russians do seem to like Japanese vehicles quite a bit from what I’ve heard and it’s not surprising they’d put them up there with tanks lol
Aaand this abomination

How’d they get the Mega Cruiser?
This article sums it up nicely so I’ll spare everyone from my broken english.
Short answer, they just bought the HMVs. (Quite cheaply if I have to say, only 2 million roubles)
Ukraine only got HMVs from Japan recently and the first photos of the “russian” HMVs are from late 2022

Was there any version of the SUB-I-II that had a gunner that wasn’t exposed never have I felt more frustrated the armour doesnt bother me just the fact that the gunner dies from everything quickly same nonsense the M42 has its gunner also dies quickly more often then not it gets you killed
Does the Thailand VT4 have APS? it seems that Thai VT4 is the basic version one, hope it can have lower BR
SUB-I-II with 20mm is by itself the experimental version made from Type 73 exp. hull. So only one version of it was built with this turret specification

You can have gaijin add structure models, and that will help a little, a little :3
A lovely display of Japanese main battle tank engines. From left to right, the engines showcased are from the Type 10, Type 90, and Type 74 tanks. Note how the size of the engines becomes more compact with each newer model.

Nobody addopted VT-4 with APS. I doubt it is even mass-produced cuz nobody ordered it.
Thing is, the SUB-I-II seems to has the exact same cupola and gun mount as the Type 73 APC, and the Type 73 APC machine gun is remotely control from inside the vehicle, so the SUB-I-II should be capable the same ?
Btw the video from devblog didn’t have the gunner outside and the cupola is closed.
But then again we have roof mounted MGs that can shoot while the commander is inside the vehicle regardless if they are RWS or not so i don’t see why the SUB needs its gunner outside.

Is It remotely controlled? I really thought it is not because looks like simple machine gun turret.

It features an aluminum hull and can navigate on water when equipped with flotation devices. The 12.7mm heavy machine gun mounted on the vehicle can be operated remotely from inside.

I would think that It should be remote fired there isnt any hand controls visible on the model at all and ammo amount should be slightly more 50 per ammo box is unrealistic especially with such a high rate of fire there might of been a slow fire setting aswell or single fire mode

Just wonder, is Japanese tree died (or entering a extremely slow growth)? Few years ago, we can feel the growth started to slow down but at least we still got some new little low BR toys like chi-ha LG and some plane, but recently I just feel like Gaijin just out of Japanese vehicles (exclude naval, nobody play naval) they even stop giving WWII fighter like they used to do.
