General Japanese & Thai Ground Forces Discussion HQ

The photos were helpful, but what I wanted to know was how much the vehicle can be raised or lowered using the height adjustment function of the “Horstman Hydrostrut”.

Samp/t for one

Supremely disappointing update for Japan

The English stream said there might be more things added, but the latest leak said that it’s a boat.

Big old L update

i was extra annoyed that they added the oplot to China even tho Pakistan has none and the oplot is supposed to be a unique Thai-Ukraine vehicle for Japan to draw players in but no they go and add it to CHINA

Even though the said Oplot was never adopted by Paki army, Oplot in that specific configuration was made, offered for, and trialed by Pakistan specifically. Changes are rather minor (no Varta APS, lighter side armor configuration, technically different round such as domestically-developed Naiza APFSDS) but they are worth to make a difference Thai Oplot and Paki Oplot (they would stand out more from each other than gazillion Leo2A4s that have at best camo net as remarkable difference).
Yet copy-pasting a tank 1:1 is much cheaper than doing small but effectively unique changes to a vehicle.

Uhhh… What is this high-octane copium my guy? FYI Oplot was never meant to be unique to Thailand. Besides Ukraine that has like 8 version of T-84 alone (each having more differences between each other than Type 90/10s between their models), Oplot was offered to Pakistan, Malaysia, and was also sold to the US. It was a matter of time when we should’ve seen the next Oplot hitting the game. Also Pakistan being officially defined as sub-tree for China, there is no reason to gatekeep the tank from Chinese TT when added on behalf of Pakistan (tho I hate people bringing double standards due to which we got no Thai VT-4). And the fact we get more of these might actually help solving possible issues with the tank while also getting something different to neverlasting Leo2 copy-pastium.

Soooo, Gaijin hired Thai voice actors who also dub movies for Thai Netflix.
Overall, it’s fine, but some lines could’ve been phrased better — for example, they used the English abbreviation “SPAA” directly, even though there’s already a proper Thai term for it.
Some lines also don’t sound like how actual Thai tank crews would speak in proper military order.

For those who don’t speak Thai, how do you feel when you hear Thai tank crew voices?

I don’t mind it, Pakistan getting an Oplot is hopefully a sign that Thai VT-4 isn’t far either.
