With OCU as it is now it would be redundant to have both and better to change it to (e)MLU, but the real OCU would be very interesting because it would have a much different role at a lower BR.

If the OCU was 12.7 with out AMRAAM (like Belgian OCU) it could even replace the F-16AJ.

Speak for yourself, more the merrier!

Also it doesn’t need to be in the same line, it could easily replace the F-16AJ or be foldered with it. Since it’d be great CAS, it’d follow the AV-8S + A-7E CAS capabilities.

Ahem, bit of a self-plug but if any of you would like to see the expanded list of vehicles you can see it here:

Yeah it depends, some articles has someone really strict that would just veto any changes or sometimes they’re just very chill

I wish someone made a suggestion post for the Ka-To Tank Destroyer

Before anyone says “But it wasn’t built!!!1!1!!” I don’t really care, id take a unique vehicle design realized in WT that would fit perfectly in a spot where Japan’s Ground Tech Tree needs something desperately over more copy paste in general.

I made a report on the Chi-Ri’s 37 mm hull gun lacking a shoulder stabilizer.

yay the Chi-ri can enter the halls of gaijin nerfing another japanese tank into the death zone. just that unlike those in the past, i dont think the chi-ri can survive 5.7 whatsoever.

They don’t. These are decommissioned (T)AV-8S’. Likely there just because it looks funny. None of these aircraft have a radar or are capable of using the AIM-120.

Oh my god
Did he post the full document?

Type 89 2026?

Indonesia seems to love there light IFVs more then tanks. Makes sense light IFVs tend to be easier to fix and maintain also I have never seen a full true MBT that can swim. Too heavy and would be too big if someone ever tried. An Indonesia ground sub tree would have the IFVs Japan kind of needs.
