Made four years ago, pretty sure it is still the same since the model never got any change.
This is the close-up of the actual RWS. What we have is not even remotely close to this. It is just a regular machine gun mount with no wires or any electrical components etc.
Ive been working on a suggestion for a revamped Artillery/Mortar system in-game. If you are familiar with Project Reality, it would be based on that. Basically it would have the player rely on the in-game map grid system to determine the distance and then a ballistics computer to input values for triangulation.
With that firing solution you will know what how many degrees to aim and by how high you should aim the barrel. No markers or anything, just pure math (well youre not really doing math since there is a calculator). You will then adjust youre aim based on intuition, relying on the hit cam if it hits somewhere close, or relying on your drone if you have access to one.
Anyhow, I was thinking that it might be alright if it was placed on a lower BR despite it being quite new but yeah, there are some problems as to how it would perform without a proper artillery system as of now. Still such a shame that the Thais arent really all that invested in developing their own tanks, they can clearly develop advanced rocket and artillery systems as well as have the industry to even develop their own unique upgrades for their fighters and CAS. Not that Im concerned though, Japan should still remain as a Japanese tech tree, there was however a proposal for it to be mounted on a Humvee clone by the Thais but not sure if they ever did mount it though.
I can see Japan’s Type 19 155mm Wheeled SPH being featured there, Thailand as well has its own Domestic 155mm Wheeled SPH. Meet the DTI ATMG.
Such a shame that we do not have any viable roles for these types of SPHs as of the moment in-game. Hopefully we can get these represented in-game soon.
I have a hunch that, beside Thai stuff, we might see Singaporean stuff in the tech tree as well. Thus, I can see Singaporean Leopard 2SG that has been passed to developers becoming a ground Squadron vehicle for Japanese Tree. If not, it might be a tech tree vehicle after Thai T-84 Oplot-T.
Since apparently it is still not our turn to get a sub-tree because why would we need it?
Seems like it is the France that is getting one so i’m not hopeful to see any vehicle from outside Japan in sight anytime.
