Starting next year or finish research next year?
Tbh I’m not sure, it says the following:
The aim is to respond to attacks by large numbers of drones and ballistic missiles, and the plan is to include the 2027 budget budget request as a “request for items” without specifying the amount.
This kind of system is not that hard for them really, it can easily modified on current Type 87, hope we would see it before this game dying
type87 with type91 and laser?)))
I always wondered why Japan hadn’t gone the same route as Germany with Gepards. Putting some SAM-2s on Type 87s would make a lot sense, given how much JSDF likes to save money.
A bit of topic but it really annoys me that JSDF doesn’t use SAM-2s on their AH-64s, I am always all for using domestic if possible.

Perhaps the Type 10’s turret basket in the game should be smaller and positioned higher.
The height (green) of the basket is 0.36 of the diameter (red)
Spoiler



In the game - 0.43

Now about the basket placement.
The photo shows that the turret ring is attached exactly to the bottom of the turret. In the game, however, there’s a gap between the bottom of the turret and the elevation drive.
Based on the above, I assume the basket in the game should be placed within the yellow rectangle.
I think there was something like a gepard 1A2, but it didn’t go beyond the papers.
Is that the new IFV?
I guess is the new chasis for type 89 ifv turret
Looks more like the C-UAS ifv
Because the Type 87 was too expensive to procure in large numbers, and the AH-64 procurement was also botched, neither could be fielded in sufficient numbers. So, I assume they were deemed not worth upgrading.
Japan could definitely use that SPAA if devs would change their mind on blueprint vehicles. Is it closed top or would it be more similar to the ostwind 2?
woohahaha


Type 1 Ho-Ki AA
It doesn’t prove anything, just a small observation.


Stop… Doesn’t this mean that the new car will have a rear wheel drive?
the landing door is highlighted in green
Spoiler

Perhaps, but more likely it’s just to provide access to the idler wheel for tensioning or something. Given where the door is the transmission wouldn’t fit unless they’re doing something extremely fancy and expensive

I just realized how inconsistent Gaijin is with naming Japanese missiles. The air-to-air missiles are named by their relative name (AAM-3, AAM-4) instead of their proper by-year name (Type 90 air-to-air missile, Type 99 air-to-air missile), just like the air-to-surface missiles, while surface-to-air missiles are the exact opposite (Type 03 instead of SAM-4, etc.).
Why is it this way? Shouldn’t Gaijin try to unify this?
