I’d say give them both DM53 and move them to 12.0
Not like the lineup at 11.7 matters

every other 11.7 tank has better rounds. the fast reload is already a tradeoff for the weaker armor and unintentionally the poorly modeled transmission as well. The elevation is not that good either and the hydropneumatic suspension is slower than it is irl. So while a reload justifies the br change, to keep it competetive with the tanks it faces way more often now it needs better rounds, maybe not the type 10 and tkx’s best rounds but it should have something in between. Even many 11.3 mbts have better rounds
More or less, that could be fixed by giving the Type 10 and TKX it’s full modular armour layout. The one in game weighs 44.4t a Type 10 with it’s “heavy armour” load out weighs 48 tones, while the minimum armour load out is only 40t. So the one in game is “standard” loadout with 50% of its maximum armour.
and hopefully ke-w on the 11.7 ones so they can compete against the heavier armroed tanks they usually face
Except the Abrams has far superior armour (and armour layout) and similar mobility and similar firepower. The Type 90/TKX/10 rely on a pure autoloader and have poor armour, not to mention that the Type 90s have poor zoom and thermals. The TKX (P) can easily remain 11.7, but Type 90s are far worse than it and should sit at 11.3.
As for new ammunition, the Type 90s are incapable of firing anything better and the TKX (P) is the only one capable of firing a better round, but then it’d just give us a 3rd practically identical MBT at 12.0.
