I’d love to have the Type 74, but not another Type 16 😅
Unfortunately, beyond lineup, it doesn’t offer anything new in terms of performance.
On the other hand, if we can get the new Type 16 APFSDS…

Just a few insignifigant Thai portees I found
Spoiler
Siamese truck with Vickers .303, obviously too weak for game purposes.
On the right, it appears to be an M3 Halftrack, but with something in the bed that sort of resembles the M45 Quadmount? You can see a 40mm Bofors sticking up in the middle, so another AA system in this photo wouldn’t be out of place.
Speaking of the 40mm Bofors, here is one on a CCKW truck, although judging by the allied star and American flag I suspect it could be from visiting U.S. troops.
This may be an AA truck of sorts, no further information or photos unfortunately.
At the very end of the Facebook account I was scolling, I came across this these AA trucks. The guns are probably Vickers, but as we can see in the first images there are two mounted, so at least it has a bit of firepower, possibly for a Rank 0 expansion.
Bonus stuff

As I later find out, through Tank Encyclopedia nonetheless, Thailand did in fact operate M16s, and with a new 147hp engine at that. I think that this minor upgrade with its accompanying Thai camos would be a nice replacement for the Japanese one we have now.
In addition, the link provided by TE brought me to a blogpost containing a very peculiar image
The leftmost halftrack immediately reminded me of a vehicle presented by @Nikolai_Kachorn in his Thai ground subtree suggestion, however, the barrel appears to be longer, even so that it is obscured by the rear wall. Presuming by the gunshield that it was similarly taken off a boat, it might not be too hard to find a match.
And by the way, Happy New Year!

Definitely agree on the replacement of the M16s as the Japanese one is more captured equipment while the Thai one was actually properly procured and the added minor horsepower upgrade would be much more appreciated.

M16 was not captured like others american ground vehicles. It was used by JSDF.
In fact there is no japanese captured ground vehicles ingame.

Japanese M16 was used in JSDF It was transferred from the United States and adopted into service of new formed JSDF, because of this the Japanese M16 in the Japanese branch is the most legitimate of the other versions.

They could add JSDF M8 Greyhound to make beginner friendly.
Also captured IJA M3 stuarts.
And IJA soviet vehicles.

Yeah here are some variants of captured tanks by Japanese.
But need to say that most soviet vehicles was than sent to the Manchu army for serving.

Sadly we will never get Manchu vehicles. Last time we could’ve gotten a Manchukuo Ki-27, but Chinese internet imploded

For this matter, from what I tried to search It is expected that there will be other naval guns, such as the 57 mm gun and another machine gun or canon removed from older warships such as the Royal Torpedo Boat.
Royal Torpedo Boat No.2 and 57mm naval gun
47mm naval gun on Royal Torpedo Boat.
Another example of a machine gun (Unclear text) which is expected to be installed on Half-Track.

I think the machine gun is the maxim pom-pom, 37mm quick firing “artillery” as it was called back in the day

ホリIIの計画があったんですね。副砲と20mm機関砲？がありとても興味深いです。ゲームで見たいですが、実装はできないでしょう。ですがもし実装されれば強力な車両となるでしょう。ところで私の日本語って翻訳されていますか？
