CTWV SPAAG would go so hard
Another reason to gimp Japan mains
I was reminded about this bug that had been approved for two years now and still nothing being done despite being some of the most annoying bugs you have to deal with.

Imagine grinding for months just to have these tanks that don’t even drive properly !
Any Chi-Ri enjoyers ?
The Ha-Go (replica) with its iconic jungle camouflage blends almost perfectly into the surrounding environment.
I don’t think I’ve seen this ever before. It appears to be US drawing of the sloped Ho-Ri. It is the only variant without 37mm gun and the edges seem to match. Notice where the driver is located.
Hmmm. Perhaps it’s from the same lineage as this image? The lines on the roof seem to match with the angles seen from the side. The gun clamp matches too.
Don’t forget the weight also went down, by a not insignificant amount. It will be slightly more mobile as well.
I wonder why there’s a drawing of it. If it wasn’t built, then why were they interested in it?
I’ve done tests before changes (when datamine appeart) and after
Acceleration to:
20km/h - 0.5 second faster than before
30km/h - 1 second faster
45km/h - 4 seconds faster
That’s certainly something. Though I’d expect the low speed acceleration to be impacted more than high speed…
There’s a lot more to be fixed… such as the autoloader and model
First the J7W gets a pretty meaningful buff, now the Chi-Ri… who knows what will happen next!
I should have put Ka-Chi and Chi-Ha gearbox drawings side by side sooner. The layout is nearly identical, except gears 3 and 4 have been switched around.
Books say that Ka-Chi was made from Chi-He and used the same internal machinery and engine. Unfortunately they don’t strictly specify the gearbox, although “machinery” heavily implies that.
Was there ever talk about this on WT forums or anywhere else?
I guess those ratings in Japanese documents are net powers and Americans calculated gross powers.
Tank engine liquid cooling systems of the time could consume about 20% of the gross power, but we don’t have many examples of air cooled systems. Only non Japanese air cooled tank engine I can think of would be American gasoline radials, which are very different from inline and V diesels and I don’t think they had such impellers either. At any rate I’d like to know how Americans calculated powers for these, since they are ridiculously high.
l hope that the Japanese MBT bugs will be fixed with each update.
I wonder why they haven’t added the Ho-Ni II yet.
Would be a unique vehicle instead of the regular copy-paste and shouldn’t be hard to implement.
Ho-Ni II and Ho-To (short 120mm gun on Ha-Go base) are one of waited from me vehicles especially with funny high caliber HEAT rounds.
I would also really like to have Ho-Ru (Ha-Go with 47mm in hatch like Hetzer) but despite it was produced no photo survived so very doubt it will be added
Ho-Ru would be amazing; it would play like a rat tank with the decent 47 mm gun.
I also want the correct Ho-Ri and the Ke-To as well.
Dont forget about biggest japanese land battleship O-I
