Type 74 Red Star ★ ,The first uparmored Type 74 in the game!
More armor has been added in the latest dev server, including the rubber flaps, but the small wooden logs on both sides provide no protection like Soviet logs.
The dummy applique armor is about 5mm thick but offers reasonable protection against HEAT-FS at certain angles, especially from a direct frontal attack.
I honestly have no reason to buy it, especially since I already have the Type 74G.
Although, I kind of want it just because of how cool it looks.
Well, if they lower the Type 87 RCV to the same BR, I will seriously consider getting it because then I would have a really fun lineup with the Type 74C, Type 87 SPAAG, and Type 87 RCV.

Ditto
but I’d have a hard time recommending it just because of how awful my experience was spading the Type 74C
Type 74 is horribly hit or miss imo. I cant tell if i hate it or find it bearable because every match is decent or bad. Probably just my crummy luck.
I don’t need it, but I want it. There is something about tanks without sideskirts, I really wish they would give us a toggle for them.
I posted a discord link.
Here it is, everything translated and posted as photos in the discord

Is type87 rcv equipped with stab in reality?
Serial Type 87 RCV (with 25mm) don’t have it

Chaiseri has unveiled the new First Win ARV, which, while still based on the First Win platform, is noticeably lower than the standard model. This reduced height enhances concealment while maintaining standard armor protection and the ability to mount a remote-controlled weapon station (RCWS).
Reports indicate that this project was developed to meet the requirements of a foreign client for an international competition.
Praying for some big boom sticks on it.

It got a turret traverse upgrade irl, I wonder why we don’t have it
What turret traverse update?
What is different about this chassi? But it would be cool to add, Type 16 is kinda lonely at 9.7
I hope one day Japan will look into a 120mm gun on a wheeled platform, that or develop a better shell better than Type 93.

The suggestion is here, but TLDR, not much. It’s a slightly improved for the crew Type-16, Think Type-90 vs Type-90B, but would allow for a 2nd Type-16 without direct C&P.
I doubt that’ll happen unfortunately, the whole idea behind Type-16 is island hopping and being relatively light and mobile, the added space and weight of a 120mm does somewhat defeat the point etc.
They probably are, but I haven’t heard about anything.

I think the Type 74 is one of the most nerfed MBTs, it lost it’s 400+mm god mantlet, lost it’s reverse gears, the poor sound balancing of it’s IRL recorded audio easily makes them some of the loudest MBTs in game while moving, the 1st order ammo changes placed a big ammo rack in the back of the turret and I’m pretty sure it’s turret drives got nerfed at some point as well.
The later 74s got railgun ammo but the 74C sits awkwardly between the Turm III/T-55AM and doesn’t have a whole lot to show for it. This and the Turm III or the only vehicles stuck with DM13/M392A2 above 8.0, at least the Turm III brings a 5 second autoloader and has half a Falcon strapped to it (and it’s faster), I’d really like to see the 74C get M728.

I’m sorry to throw this off topic here, but I want to share these videos with you
It’s interesting reading this to me as IMO the C is the best Type 74 model. Its one of the lowest BR tanks with 2-plane stabs and an LRF, with decent ammo options. It’s also not high enough BR to really start seeing the ‘cancer’ vehicles and space laser bombers.
There are also some very cool prototype Type 16s with several turret variants. I’d rather see those tbh

Why not all of them! More type-16s = more fun.
