General Japanese & Thai Ground Forces Discussion HQ

Since it is not very often to see Japanese AFV along side foreign vehicles so here is an Type 16 driving past an Australian Abrams and its crews.

The Type 81C ARH missile in dev server now has a working ‘‘maddog’’ mode - you can launch them without the FCS vehicle.

Fuji Firepower Exercise 2025

Slight disappointed they didn’t demonstrate live firing , And the ICV didn’t show up for some reason but at least an official annoucement.

RCV still didn’t get “Type 2X” designation…

It did. At 1:02:09 they call it 25式偵察警戒車

So Type 25? Makes me feel old…

Ah really? Confused that they haven’t written it on screen.
So it is cool!

I really hate how Gaijin simply call them RCV and ICV, it’s not even what the vehicle is called before they are officially designated Type 25.

Try to turn like this with the Type 10 in WT, you come to a halt instantly. Why can’t Gaijin fix the Type 10 steering issues?

Does t84 have spall liners ?I’m quite surprised that Japan only use their spall liners on trucks and type 25s.

It doesn’t seem so, at least in the turret

I wonder how much of an improvment the new APFSDS that’s in development is compared to the old Type 93 APFSDS

For those who are not on the dev server, this is the new Type 10 engine sound.

Just wish they would also fix the steering issues…
