WW2 Japanese tanks reload times and br

Aubl HVG has an 8 second reload to load tiny 60mm APFSDS that are projectiles less than 1kg, whilst doing less damage than a 30mm BMP autocannon.

There are tanks with projectiles 10x heavier that have the same reload.

Just Warthunder things.

Yeah but after the 3 loaded shells run out its like 11 sec load. Even so its basically same gun like Chi-To 4 sec longer reload is bit too much. I would understand like 1 sec more as the autoloader belt might get in the way a bit but 11 sec is just absurd.

I think I tested it once with countdown and it was like 10.5 sec

Have you ever seen how large a tank shell is? They are heavy, A 75mm shell weighs around 3, 2 litter soda bottles, 2, 8-ounce soda bottles, 1, 7.5 ounces “Mini” can of Soda, and 1 6-ounce soda can(if you can find that). 14.9 Lb(6.75 Kilograms). For you metric folks we are taught both. Unlike the Stereotype that claims we don’t. Learn one of them. We also just don’t bother using one of them intentionally since it doesn’t benefit the common Joe. If your cooking, doing scientific, construction and other sorts=very useful for common eye joes, no.

Yes, and no they are not and i go to the gym 4x a week…15lbs is not heavy at all. As for soldiers who train daily, 15lbs isn’t much. We have Abram’s 120mm shells weighing around 50lbs and loading them within 5 to 6 seconds. More than double the weight of a 75mm shell and we stuck loading them around 6.5 seconds with ACE crew, 6.9 with expert and around 8 seconds with regular crew on Chi-To. Chi-Ri, 11 seconds…

Just doesn’t add up at all to me. 14 lbs isn’t much at all, 50lbs is a lot. 11 seconds to load on a Chi-Ri is a lot, double the time of an Abrams reload.

For a common Joe that’s relatively heavy, it takes a toll if you need to continuously load it. Of course, experienced crews means your muscles get used to the weight but it doesn’t mean you don’t get tired out.

However, crew don’t get tired in the game sooo its still a pretty questionable as of why in game Abrams get a 5 sec reload at Aced crew with a 120mm shell vs Chi-Ri firing 3 shells then stuck with a 11 sec reload on a 75mm shell and an Aced crew. Average joe or not, still unfair.
