yeah it would be near useless in cqb but most japanese tanks suffer in cqb from slow turret rotation anyway and people still use the type 93 for memes yes but

Oh wow so long in it

It might have an impact defending against something like the Fox, but I doubt you’ll notice it vs most things.

Its a nerf certainly but I think

Is a tad bit of an exageration.

never used the thing but the, no idea how to spell this, Khrizentama has ground to ground radar in one form, radar guided missiles according to the wiki

It does, you are right, though that thing is totally OP

I would settle for the chu-mpm or the adats at top tier for japan. I’m not happy with a rather pointless at this rate battle bus with a 30mm cannon :)

Type-90 / 10 have unparalleled strengths too though.

Being able to beat everything on the reload is a huge advantage in CQB.

i honestly never meet them, when they are in games i just dont see them
its also the only one and isnt exactly new
no idea why they havent developed the ideas further for other nations

Yeah but you are very fragiel and the tyype 10 round is known for rather poor spalling so you have a good chance of not killing an enemy tank even if you get a good shot you will need sometimes a 2 one on it

I have done so a fair bit, the issue is their hull down ability is insane. If they get in a right spot, they are essentially unkillable

last i met one like that was when pradesh was added, cheeky spot for them on the bridge side

its should be a 3.4 it should also have abetter turret rotation and drive and handle better. I agree a fast reload works if you manage to get a hit that makes the other tank unable to simple return fire.

Only if you had the fastest reload rate in game at 4 seconds, maybe that would make up for the shells being better than quite a few

3.4 instead of 4.0 would make up for one of the slowest turret rotations in game and horrible handling at speeds and turning on the spot

Oh and pratically no armor so any return shot is going to make my day just awful

are we insinuating that this out reloads the S tank?

You can almost flip the type 10 if you take a turn to fast :)

Vs Challenger 2

  • a faster reload
  • bigger ready rack
  • better shell
  • Higher top speed
  • probably equal or better handling

Its slightly slower rotation speed than the challenger 2, got that the wrong way round

What’s 3.4 achieving that 4.0 doesn’t already do? Either way, it’s the best in game.

Man it must be exhausting trying to find the negatives in everything.
