Balance? They did it with the F5C and the F15A, as long as another nations version had it, you can argue for it to be added. Whether its added is up to gaijin.
The TT AH-1S doesn’t get countermeasures tho. I feel like Gaijin just added it to make it at least somehow slightly different from the TT version. That’s just plain cheating lol. The Kisarazu version should’ve really just been just a camo for the TT one.
I will make a suggestion for a new jap premium heli, the AH-64DJP without the radar mast. I believe it would be much healthier for the japanese tree, as most other nations get a top tier premium heli as well. If anyone tries to tell me it would be too similar to the TT AH-64, then please - look at Israel, their premium heli is THE EXACT SAME as one of the TT.
Edit: the Israeli premium has 30x CMs, TT has 60x CMs. What a mindblowing difference.
What can we expect from the Thai T-84?
How will it fare compared to the chinese and russian top tier MBTs?
Depends on how Gaijin adds the ERA on that thing. If similar to the APFSDS stopping Russian ERA, then it would be very similar to top tier T-80s.
Without big talk around how its armor is configured etc; you can bascially expect a T-90A with T-80B mobility and (at least what we assume they use) chinese APFSDS.
Better mobility then the t80 as it has an actual reverse gear
I’d say it would be T-90M with T-80B mobility and actually good reverse speed. But yeah, if provided with chinese ammo it would be a T-80BVM sidegrade
And there goes Japan 11.3 lineup if the br changes happen like this.
Why would the type81 go up again? Its missiles are good, but only if you manage to launch then, and i dont know if they changed something but they have been missing and loosing lock more resently
No radar, only 4 ready missiles that need to search and lock first so response time its slower to intercept stuff
Already writting the feedback on the proper topic but dang, dont know what are they thinking
Not to mention basically zero missile-interceptability.
I would rather keep the Type 81 (C) at 11.0, add Type 11 at 12.0 and once better SAM is necessary we still have Thailand’s VL MICA and Singapore’s SPYDER-SR as future options (considering we get more ASEAN Founders Nations as Sub-Nations and multi vehicle systems).
Beyond that, there are only Type 03 Chu-SAM (Kai), Partiot, FK-3 (Thailand) and ASTER 30 (Singapore).
Also putting the TKX p at 11.7 where theres nothing else doesnt makes sence, at that pont either leave it where it is or just give it the Type10 round and put it at 12.0
Not really a fan of turning Japan into an ASEAN hosting nation, I think the Type 03, Patriot, and FK-3 alone offer more than enough options where some nations only may get one.
Does it still fires 3bm42 or it gets a better gun launched missile.
3bm44 or chinese dart
Didn’t find any info about Thai having 3bm44, is there any website that can give me this kind of info🫠
3bm44 is a new round. I don’t think its available for export.
I expect them to use china darts due to buying VT-4s aswell
I just noticed Thailand ordered some modern AH-6 helicopters, can’t wait for those to expand the Japanese heli tree.
Yup, I am still waiting for the first dellvery so I can finally throw out a Suggestion for it.
Still somewhat funny that the AT-6TH’s came a lot faster.
T-80BVM with better reverse gear, but with a worse shell
Better than ZTZ-99A (at least the one in the game now), same as T-80BVM (2019), but worse than BVM (2024/25)
