I’ll place my bets on the name “TKX (B)”
what about the mcv
Surely we’ll get our tiny missing basket too…
From the recent Combined Fire Exercise
Incredibly sastisfying to watch these missiles flying up and straight toward their targets and hit them accurately !

also i doubt their actual speed its 66 m/s i did some calculations over the 1000 meters with a 55 degree arch and a 55 degree reaching point, giving me out aproximately 133 m/s or for the type 01, the range seems to be wrong aswell being max range of 4 km and warhead considering the weight of everything i got around 3.2 kg with composition B this would be like 3.5 to 3.6 kg of equivalent in TNT with an average of 700 mm of pen, i repeat this is with calculations i used based on videos and data of the missile like lenght diameter and other stuff

Hopefully Gaijin will accept such calculations. But they would probably want on-paper sources :(

yeah sadly its gonna be only paper, but i already have rough estimates based on average statistics, like weights of certain components power to thrust ratio of the engines, fuel output, time taken to reach target, initial acceleration, aerodynamics and a buch of other stuff, but the speed roses around the 133 to 145 m/s on average with my guess on the TNT warhead being of 3.5 to 3.6kg of equivalent in TNT and 700 mm of pen, but this is a guesstimate

Way faster than 60 mps.
Not as fast as the Type 87 but also not as slow as the Type 64.

type 64 travels at 88 m/s if im not wrong
Suddenly it doesn’t look like the Type 16…

F-15 MSIP and Haguro* on dev stream, keeping the tradition alive of getting a plane and a boat each update.

They added AAM4 too, but stats seemed wrong. From what I have heard it should have better range than aim120 but its identical outside of slight better G load. So its the same story as AAM3 all over again…

AAM-4 is cool and all but having to re-grind and re-spade the F-15 is not gonna be fun.
Was expecting an XF-2 or something…

At the very least, given that the warhead weight is the same as that of the AIM-120, this is either a placeholder figure or a major mistake by Gaijin. The warhead weight of the AAM-4 is 15.09 kg TNTeq.

Type 90 turrets are completely broken. I’m wondering if they are trying to move the turret slightly backward since it is positioned wrong in the game.
Eitherway this is a new update for everyone but the Japanese ground forces. This tech tree is dead than a cemetery. Two updates in a row, seems like they are trying to make a record or something.
Pretty much nothing new, no changes, no vehicle update, no new ammo no nothing beside the nerf for Type 90 and Type 10 because their auto-loaders now are damage modules… yay ?

Hey at least we got a viable ARH capable plane unlike Germany, gotta look at the positives xD

Not gonna lie, I was hoping they’d add the ARH version of the Type 81 so we have a better SPAA option, but as usually our best SPAA is our new F-15J.

Fair enough, this in combination with the last update has felt very, dry. I kind of expected more (and im aware we don’t have everything yet) but for such a long wait with two seemingly rather dry updates in a row is annoying. Double so if we wont even get crew healing this update.
