It’d be a solid mid-tier AA though.
Also, this isn’t just a bomb on wheels, unlike a VBIED.
And I don’t see what’s wrong with field modifications. The vehicle itself is pretty much the same idea as all of the low tier milk trucks we have in game. All the parts were built, put together, and filmed for proof.
Because it was field modified by the RUSSIAN army
But there isn’t a need for the vehicle in the Russian TT. They have a couple dozen ZU-23 just on wheels alone that could be added and another couple dozen on trackers.
It would be pretty weird for the Japanese TT to have a vehicle that was field-modified by the Russian army. Especially if it was never produced as such originally. Also can we not have anymore foreign SPAA in the line up? We have the M42 and SUB. Those are good enough
There are already plenty of suggestions for the Toyota technicals used in the middle east to be added into Japanese tech tree which i’m against, except if they are not modified by the terorrist group and is properly built by defense contractors such as the Jordanian ATGM carrier, then it is an exceptional.
At least that HMV is a former JGSDF’s equipment and not those commercial trucks like the land cruisers which were not even used by the Japanese military.
Both the AWX and Ki-To are either too weak or too strong to be placed at mid tier which Japan is currently being carried by the copy & past US vehicles.
This could be an equivalent to the BTR-ZD and can be placed at around between 4.3-5.0
And the Swiss hunter was built by Britain.
I’m honestly more of a purist, but export vehicles are OK. I just don’t want to see field-modified vehicles
I was reading the datamine github and looked at the changes coming in version 2.31.1.36 and the Type 87 AW is getting IRST tracking capability.
Interesting not sure how that will benefit but cool nevertheless
Y’know that’s actually pretty nice. Been waiting for a while for that to be added to the game.
IRST is actually a pretty big upgrade in it’s capabilities. Not only does it allow for the ability to track without the radar being active, thus allowing you to engage targets without them knowing where you even are, it most importantly isn’t affected by ground clutter meaning that you can accurately engage low flying targets.
Also enemy wont get a tracking RWR ping as well
It is not IRST, but TV tracker, the same as SIDAM’s one. It can’t lock targets at night in compare with IRST of other SPAA but other features are the same
In the issue of Type 81C, there were not three people because “one person was not seated”, but in fact there is a seat.
The video shows a Type 11, but it is the same Izuzu truck.
You answer your question, a crew member has to open the breeches, then get a shell or 2 passed from 1 crew member to the other, then load them in, close the breech, and get back into the vehicle after double checking incase of failures.
I arrived very late to the party about STA4 but I have some information that I feel it would be nice to share, so anyway I have this old tank magazine from Japan which goes into detail about the development of the Type 61:
and it has a section dedicated to describe each prototype and requirement by the JGSDF that led to the development of the final design:
but the whole point of my response is to ask if anyone knows about the information of these charts which has information about the STA4 and Type 61 engine performance:
so my question is about, does this slight difference in performance is something considerable in order to introduce it to WT as the last prototype of the Type 61? or the information is wrong and it had the same performance as the regular Type 61, I couldn’t find info about this so that’s why I post it here because I know there’s people here who can provide more feedback
Type 99 SPH coming
