General Japanese & Thai Ground Forces Discussion HQ

No uh i mean with a search radar dawg

Agreed, if no domestic or unique vehicles exist to fill a gap then Copy and paste should be used instead.

Finland air is a great example of gaijin literally adding no actual gap fillers and thus ignoring the actual problems with the air tree. I hate when gaijin decides to not actually think when it comes to fixing problems with main TT’s. I just hope the ground additions bolster lineups that are lacking a lot cough cough 8.x

tragic times, thailand lacks any spaa with a search radar built in… tragic times

Not just that, but some Gaijin BR decisions boggle the mind with regard to lineups

Type 87 RCV P at 7.7? Why? The Wiesel is at the same BR, smaller, and gets gen 3 thermals+LRF plus the same autocannon! It should be at 7.3 with the M47, Ho-Ri, and Type 99.

Type 81c now at 11.7? The same BR as the Pantsir… Gaijin, please get someone else in the balancing kitchen, your BRs are burned to a crisp…!

Okay type 87 RCV (p) honestly does better at 8.7, in a full uptier against Germany is when i pull it.




Honestly 8.7 against Germany is the only thing that kept me sane spading it

Also for the nuke on American desert that T55 AM-1 can go **** himself Ho Ri Supremacy!!!

Seriously skip play the RCV against Germany and flank and play like a Rat, uncap objectives and listen and youll do fine.

(Just have to blow your brains out getting the APDS…)

It’s mostly personal bias, but I find Pattons dreadfully boring. Only the later iterations, such as the RISE, are interesting to me.

Given how much more accurately WOT implemented the STA and STB, I wonder what other discrepancies will show up between this and WT.

Please fix the gun sight :(

Good thing about thai is they’d add like 4 ukraine vehicles that, lets be real, most likely wont enter the game for a good bit if not ever.

Spoiler

BTR-3E1 with 90mm CMI CSE90LP

They pretty much confirmed Thailand for Japanese tree, or? And I see no reason to not add the Oplot-T.

I mean… japan already has an air thai sub tree dont see how they cant add ground

Tbh this could have been a squadron vehicle for 9.x BR in lieu of RCV (P), which I consider a waste of squadron research points.
Like the thing (90mm BTR) was, afaik, a proposal for Thais and was trialed only, so it would fit quite neetly the place. But I forsee it as a future event vehicle for Japan (yet again, Thai ground forces should arrive sooner or later + there isn’t and wasn’t a single event ground vehicle for Japan).

Its the low pressure Cockerill, so would be ~6.7-7.0 going by other AFVs with the gun. 250mm heat wouldn’t be fun even with a LRF (if it has one I honestly don’t know) @ 9.x

Pantsir 12.0, Tan-SAM would be same br as FlaRakRad and ADATS

Not only HEAT but also APFSDS (about 100mm pen 60° @ 1000m) + Tandem ATGM (Falarick 90 w/ at least 550mm pen), couple these w/ laser rangefinder and thermal imager and you get a workable light tank with capabilities unique enough to be either squadron or event

apart from falarick 90, those are quite terrible performance, even worse than what ZTS-63 have at 7.7, definitely not 9.X worthy

Probably, but still better than usual 90mm low-pressure rat gun found at 7.x (given none have either thermals or laser rangefinders)

the thai sub tree for air at least in the higher ranks (10.3+) adds virtually nothing especially at the 10.3-11.0 BR’s theres quite literally nothing

Sure, it’s still less than other nations even when combined with Japan, but it’s not nothing and they have a bit of fun stuff to add in the 10.0+ area.

Spoiler

The normal stuff, like the Oplot, M60A3 TIFCS and BTR-3s. You might have to take away VT-4, VN-1 and VN-16, but even then they don’t seem nearly as controversial as they did in the past.
BTR-3E1 (ATMS)
VN-16



T-84 Oplot-T (full armor)

VL-MICA as multi-Vehicle SAM for when that’s added
VL MICA

And some very promising concepts for AFV420 and R600 chassis that are still in prototype stage
AFV-420P (30mm)
AFV-420P (ATGM)
AFV-420P (SPAA)


Panus R600 (105mm)
Panus R600 (120mm)
Panus R600 (Anti-Aircraft)

I’d agree it’s not enough just yet, but unless Gaijin mess up completely it’s not nothing either.
