Serial Type 87 RCV (with 25mm) don’t have it

Chaiseri has unveiled the new First Win ARV, which, while still based on the First Win platform, is noticeably lower than the standard model. This reduced height enhances concealment while maintaining standard armor protection and the ability to mount a remote-controlled weapon station (RCWS).

Reports indicate that this project was developed to meet the requirements of a foreign client for an international competition.




Praying for some big boom sticks on it.

It got a turret traverse upgrade irl, I wonder why we don’t have it

What turret traverse update?

What is different about this chassi? But it would be cool to add, Type 16 is kinda lonely at 9.7

I hope one day Japan will look into a 120mm gun on a wheeled platform, that or develop a better shell better than Type 93.

The suggestion is here, but TLDR, not much. It’s a slightly improved for the crew Type-16, Think Type-90 vs Type-90B, but would allow for a 2nd Type-16 without direct C&P.

I doubt that’ll happen unfortunately, the whole idea behind Type-16 is island hopping and being relatively light and mobile, the added space and weight of a 120mm does somewhat defeat the point etc.

They probably are, but I haven’t heard about anything.

I think the Type 74 is one of the most nerfed MBTs, it lost it’s 400+mm god mantlet, lost it’s reverse gears, the poor sound balancing of it’s IRL recorded audio easily makes them some of the loudest MBTs in game while moving, the 1st order ammo changes placed a big ammo rack in the back of the turret and I’m pretty sure it’s turret drives got nerfed at some point as well.

The later 74s got railgun ammo but the 74C sits awkwardly between the Turm III/T-55AM and doesn’t have a whole lot to show for it. This and the Turm III or the only vehicles stuck with DM13/M392A2 above 8.0, at least the Turm III brings a 5 second autoloader and has half a Falcon strapped to it (and it’s faster), I’d really like to see the 74C get M728.

It’s interesting reading this to me as IMO the C is the best Type 74 model. Its one of the lowest BR tanks with 2-plane stabs and an LRF, with decent ammo options. It’s also not high enough BR to really start seeing the ‘cancer’ vehicles and space laser bombers.

There are also some very cool prototype Type 16s with several turret variants. I’d rather see those tbh

Why not all of them! More type-16s = more fun.

Among the few changes done around the vehicle. Also said the FCS has been updated, not sure whatever that means.

“Ho I, Ho Ni I, Ho Ni III, Ka Mi: zoom: 1.88x / 3.53x → 3.8x / 4x”

Really nice fix, but again it makes me wonder how long we’ll have to wait for Na-To, Chi-Nu II, Chi-To, Chi-To Late, Chi-Ri 6x sights. For those guns it’s not only a small historical error, but a gameplay issue.

Is not a bad vehicle but also not good, the “not bad” part is just like what you had said and I think the “not good” part is the post pen damage of the shell, the current APDS and HEAT-FS is just sucks

The second one appears to be a T-55, I can see the signature gap between the first and second roadwheel.
