I think it would fit best for a Japanese Sub-Tree, since they will complement each other and China already has other nations that could contribute to it’s tree.
forgot to put it here, but PT-76 MLRS suggestion is up, feel free to check it out o7

quick question, aren’t badak and anoa fsv is a same thing ? like what i understand, development program for anoa with 90 mm cannon / firing support capabilities is called badak right ? or they have literally anoa APC with 90 mm cannon
it was literally just an anoa APS-3 that they slightly modified then slapped a scorpion 90 turret on lol
but there were some differences, the obvious one is that the scorpion cant fire apfsds while the badak can, and the overall hull layout is different
Anoa fsv on the top, badak on the bottom
on the anoa the engine is closer to the middle, whereas in the badak it sits beside the driver as well as some mechanical changes to the engine and suspension, etc.
but cant blame ya since the hull look virtually identical

oh man that anoa looks have no depression at all compare to russian main
tbf its basically a shittier scorpion 90, since its predominantly used as a testbed for the future badak

so its badak prototype then
another question and suggestion.
-
why PT - 76 (m) is on rank V ? it’s doesn’t make senses for me, imo that thing will be on rank IV with max BR 6.7.

do we really need tarantula 6x6 in tree cause we already have badak that literally pretty close spec ?
the tech tree image there is made to show the list of vehicle that the army has, ive put those vehicles and the brief explanation so that yontzee can then pick and choose which one he wanted to suggest, i dont think all of them should be suggested, im just saying that “hey we have this! and this!” since some people outside may not know a lot about them, like the humfox for instance
probably .50 cal + .30 cal since theres no record if IDN using the 20 mm one.

It’s the .50cal variant with M60 coaxial. The M2HB on that photo has a flash hider.

ABSOLUTELY HUGE FIND! Here are some very rare closer look of the M4A3s
Its definitely an E8, I think these images also shows its the 105mm version, but im not quite sure, can anyone confirm? Also is that Vickers as the roof mounted MG there?

for me it is the 105 because the gun its too big for 75, “bolty” bit beside gun mantlet, and the base end of barrel it looks like just big circular. for the MG i dont think thats vickers MG because the front end of barrel seems doesn’t have muzzelbrake / flat, i would say that MG is watercooled .50 cal / M2 MG.

I agree, and I think based on these images the late 75mm should be switched to the 105mm.
Switching the m4 would also help the tree since it would then be a rank 2 vehicle and not a rank 3, which has enough vehicles I think, and spreading the vehicles more evenly across the lower tiers
I also thought that it was an M1917 Browning, because the Marines service rifle back then was the .30-06 SAFN-49 and thus they have a common ammunition. Then I saw this photo of Indonesian Marines LVTs, which clearly showed them also using the Vickers MG
