It’s pretty clear this layout comes from the developers’ imagination or inspiration from similar vehicles, but honestly, it’s forgivable. Let’s be real—we have zero clue what the inside of these vehicles actually looks like! If this is what it takes to get them in the game, I’m totally fine with it. Not like I’ll be spending my time looking at the X-ray instead of playing, anyway! xD

But hey, the turret is at least unmanned like the real vehicle, i’m satisfied!

Thus why I stopped complaining about tank models and armor values for modern tech. A lot of it will be guesstimations or educated guess so the devs have a free choice to decide how it may look like or be until someone reports new info.

Hard to deny the new camouflage color that changes based on applied vehicle’s camouflage looks amazing.


Just look at the urban camo with grey camo net and the summer grey ash camo with black camo net though 🔥🔥

The Type 90 is somewhat acceptable with the camo nets volume covered more area on the turret and also some over turret basket. But the Type 16 is straight up terrible, it’s like they were not even trying to cover the vehicle.

I’ve created a bug report to give the Chi-Ri II’s secondary gun the improved Type 1 APHE shell from the Ka-Mi.

It’s somewhat intriguing that I can find multiple other photos of various trucks mounting the Type 98 in Japanese service, and yet to my knowledge, this is the only such photo that exists of the Ko-Hi version.

As far as i know the only captured vehicles the Japanese used were M3 Stuarts and M3 GMC. They did like to use captured Chinese howitzers and even dutch uniforms though.
