General Japanese & Thai Ground Forces Discussion HQ

Hopefully we get there naval stuff as well plus the other sub trees. It’s no amazing but it’s something.

God help us people are going to rage if they cannot remove the wood armour. Though it may help in the new infantry mode survive against a poorly fired RPG.

May i know the source of this game?

Do we know what the instant turn rate of the Type 03 missile should be?
I feel like just due to the design of the missile it should have a very high turn rate immediately after launch

Would help alot with the minimum range since i find even at 5km it struggles to hit targets that are flying fast even then it should be possible to launch it at an angle instead of straight vertical too

Did they remodel the Type 61 when they added the Type 61 (B) or is it still the model of a Type 61 (B)/(C)? I looked at it and couldn’t see any differences between the two in-game Type 61.

i remember them saying the B model “preludes” a remodel for the type 61 on the dev stream

What type of body is this vehicle using?

Its part of the Komatsu common chassis family. There were two types with the cabin and apc type. The NBC Recon vehicle is the cabin type, so it’s the closest analog to it.

Thank you both!

Yeah id also love to know. Im grinding it rn and tested it a lot in test drive and its…like, seriously gaijin? it cant hit the test drive helicopter at 4 km or less? its not multipathing at 500m or something, its not going fast, no frontal nor shot from behind hits it because the missiles arc in a giant arc over it and cant pull in. Seriously, all this time for the japanese tech tree with giant gaps and no adequate spaa and when they finally get one its implemented like this? Just spawn a biplane or dumb rocket heli and its completely helpless?

Lame. They should’ve foldered it in the tech tree with the Type 61 and STA-3, and added the Type 61 (D) as the premium.

Yeah honestly its not that great since people tend to fly very low to the battlefield the radar wont really detect them until its way too late as the missile just genuinely has no chance of hitting anyone flying that fast that close and forget trying to intercept missiles they seem to only be reliable at 9km

Also in testing in customs the missile still suffers from the notch angles being very easy to abuse still
At this point i dont even think the kai upgrade would help anything here since afaik the kai upgrade has no TVC (which would help ALOT in these cases)

Aww she seems very nice

Too bad this vehicle will probably be retired soon since Komatsu called it quits

Can’t wait for her sister and other Thai ships

This is the most unexpected crossover I’ve ever seen. Two Thai FV101 Scorpion tanks were spotted equipped with ERA from the VT-4. I’m not sure whether the ERA was taken from one of the two VT-4s that were damaged by a barrel explosion

Actually I more curious about if their armour thick enough to not get any damage from the ERA when they get hit

there would definitely be certain amount of damage, but its probably better than getting blown to bits
