Some pictures of the Type-90 showing its hydropneumatic suspension inclined all the way forward.
Clearly still lacking on the current version in the game…

Gotta find the specifications for how much depression the HPS adds. Not sure if multiple photos will be enough for GJ as proof.

i dont know if counting the amount of track links would be considered accurate with how their reporting system works but you could give that a shot

Hi, I have a question about the Type 90’s composite turret cheeks and mantlet. I don’t really know anything about the Type 90, but the visual model and the location of the welds (or whatever way it is attached) does not seem to correspond with the composite armour in X-Ray (assuming the 3D model is correct and those lines indicate where the armour is IRL).

The armour:


To me it looks like the gun mantlet should be wider and deeper, the left cheek (on the image) should be much longer, and the right cheek (on the image) should be shifted slightly downwards.
So, is the armour correct in WT?

I’m sorry, but I only have answers to this question in Russian. You can search for the same ones on the old com forum

Are we sure this numercal model is actually of the Type 90? To me, it looks more like one of the earliest concepts of the Type 10.

The model shown shares several features with the early Type 10 concept. Although six wheels and the smoke grenades on the middle of the turret sides are also found on the Type 90, they appear in this concept as well. Additionally, the rear section of the sponson appears rather flat in both the concept and the model, which differs from the Type 90.

The timeline also supports this view: this model was developed during the Study on Vulnerability Against Firepower (対火力脆弱性に関する研究) from 1996 to 2005 (Heisei 8–17), and development planning for the Type 10 began in 1996. It seems plausible that the model was part of conceptual studies for a new tank.

Has the model ever been explicitly described as representing the Type 90 in any official source? Without such a statement, the possibility that this is a Type 10-related concept model shouldn’t be dismissed.

I reviveing this thread. Why are the turret cheeks like that?

No clue. If I remember correctly, the visual layout IRL does not actually reflect where the armour is.

Also I really love this black and white camo on the Senrai Maidens Type-90, but the carrot throws it so much.

Emily is genuinely gorgeous and has that classic British poise. 10/10 waifu, but I don’t wanna play British ground other than South Afrika
