Does that mean you don’t know if a Type 81C can launch missiles at KCU? If that’s what you mean, there is a picture of a Type 81C KCU on the site here, and the button on the grip says “発射:fire”.

Also, I noticed when looking at the suggestions for the Type 11, the Type 11 KCU has a similar shape to the IFF antenna on the Type 93. And of course there is a “発射:fire” button.

Well, since the suggestions have been passed, everything I am doing here is late.

Ah very nice, thx. I will add the additional sources for Type 11 and Type 81 mod.(C).

I meant I’m not completely sure if the with the KCU ARH missiles can be operated without the need of seperate radar. I already assume this is the case, so I think it will be added with a choice of ARH missiles, but this is not clear.

But thanks a lot for these sources

I wish Gaijin would move the TK-X to the same branch as the new prototype so that the new vehicle is not the top vehicle and its research point requirement can be reduced.

This is how i would love to have the prototypes and production tanks in a seperated branch.
I also have added the forth TK-X because it is unique enough that it should be in the game.
You get a total of four 11.7 tanks just like how other nations like France has four Leclerc, seems fair to me.

Also four 11.0 tanks by adding the two Type 90.

I didn’t take a photo when the dev server was open, and I did not see anyone mention it. In the dev server for the next update, they fixed the Type 87 AW, Type 87 RCV, Type 89, Type 90 and Type 90 (B) having the wrong smoke grenade caliber (66mm instead of 76mm)

This is also off topic, but there is no JASDF topic page so I’ll just post it here. The T-2 (and the premium one) is getting AIM-9P.

T-2 Early - 9.7 (2x AIM-9E)
T-2 - 10.0 (2x AIM-9J)
F-1 - 10.7 (4x AIM-9L)

Is how it should be

No. F-1 even with AIM-9L on 10.7 would be just a fish food, without chaffs/flares, with poor maneurability and no radar missles (so in uptiers it will suffer much more, than now.)
Same goes to T-2. Unless it receives 9L, it cant go higher, than 9.7

Yea, I’m not sure why people think F-1 should move up if it gets 9Ls?

It is already poorly balanced due to lack of flares and the 9Ls would balance them a bit giving them a good offense to counter their poor defense. Eventually adding chaff pods would probably also help them too as they could fly a bit higher and have better chance against early radar missiles.

At the same time I disagree with AIM-9L’s meeting 9.3 stuff

The next update will add nets to the lights on Type 10 tanks.

Very good. :)

most stuff japan has recieved till now “nets on their lights” wich will add a total of 0.01 mm of armor protection

Net will be able to repel APFSDS

imgaine they actually turn the armor upside down and reverse it so now its fixed

Oh nice!

I hope they add the mini-basket at the back of the turret sometime too.

one of my top best suggestions that I saw in the forum for japan rn its prob the suggestion of adding the type 91 kai missile for the type 93 and change the main tracking system of the type 91 from IR tracking to optical tracking with IR assistance which means it can lock at any range and fire without too much troubles meanwhile type 91 kai would have more G forces and better range which could be a great addition for the type 93, also ECCM seems to be useless so far since it should be immune to ircms thanks the this ECCM but unfortunately it isn’t

But kai variant don’t have more G, its only have smokeless motor and IIR instead of optical, which means its less visible, better seeker for bad weather and vulnerable to DIRCM, while basic variant should have resistance

i know it dosent have extra G forces since the only thing it changes is that its technically lighter due to the reduction of the electronics but it still keeps the same weight due to the addition of extra fuel for the missile so it has more range, but this could easily be an artifical buff to the missile so there is a reason to actually grind the type 91 kai appart from the range, Hronomant even made very nice estimations and calculus of the type 91 missile G forces but we know that it probably wont be added as 30 g forces since gaijin needs proof other than videos

Would be better to remove all artificial nerfs, type93 have about 50% less irl combat capabilities compared to what we have in game, not even talking about bugs
