General Japanese & Thai Ground Forces Discussion HQ

Without big talk around how its armor is configured etc; you can bascially expect a T-90A with T-80B mobility and (at least what we assume they use) chinese APFSDS.

Better mobility then the t80 as it has an actual reverse gear

I’d say it would be T-90M with T-80B mobility and actually good reverse speed. But yeah, if provided with chinese ammo it would be a T-80BVM sidegrade

And there goes Japan 11.3 lineup if the br changes happen like this.
Why would the type81 go up again? Its missiles are good, but only if you manage to launch then, and i dont know if they changed something but they have been missing and loosing lock more resently
No radar, only 4 ready missiles that need to search and lock first so response time its slower to intercept stuff
Already writting the feedback on the proper topic but dang, dont know what are they thinking

Not to mention basically zero missile-interceptability.

I would rather keep the Type 81 (C) at 11.0, add Type 11 at 12.0 and once better SAM is necessary we still have Thailand’s VL MICA and Singapore’s SPYDER-SR as future options (considering we get more ASEAN Founders Nations as Sub-Nations and multi vehicle systems).

Beyond that, there are only Type 03 Chu-SAM (Kai), Partiot, FK-3 (Thailand) and ASTER 30 (Singapore).

Also putting the TKX p at 11.7 where theres nothing else doesnt makes sence, at that pont either leave it where it is or just give it the Type10 round and put it at 12.0

Not really a fan of turning Japan into an ASEAN hosting nation, I think the Type 03, Patriot, and FK-3 alone offer more than enough options where some nations only may get one.

Does it still fires 3bm42 or it gets a better gun launched missile.

3bm44 or chinese dart

Didn’t find any info about Thai having 3bm44, is there any website that can give me this kind of info🫠

3bm44 is a new round. I don’t think its available for export.

I expect them to use china darts due to buying VT-4s aswell

I just noticed Thailand ordered some modern AH-6 helicopters, can’t wait for those to expand the Japanese heli tree.

Yup, I am still waiting for the first dellvery so I can finally throw out a Suggestion for it.

Still somewhat funny that the AT-6TH’s came a lot faster.

T-80BVM with better reverse gear, but with a worse shell

Better than ZTZ-99A (at least the one in the game now), same as T-80BVM (2019), but worse than BVM (2024/25)

I mean they’ll probs just give it the chinese rounds tbh

Japan had some OH-6s themselves, but I don’t know if they were ever armed. Probably not.
