Currently japanese vehicles have lots of problems that other factions dont face. For an example in low br japan has no planes that can spawn in the air. They all need to take off from carrier which is extremely slow and makes these planes much less useful than their allied counterparts. For an example you cant intercept bombing runs because they will fly away before you can catch them. Considering how much xp you get from bombers it is an shame that japanese planes cant do the same every other nation can. This is not an problem in the burma map where everyone spawns in air. It is much more balanced there and i hope the devs will give airspawns for every plane and not just the allied ones.
Speaking of japanese planes they still lack any proper attacker aircraft in high br. The best attacker they get is d4y1 which is in br 3. Due to the lack of attacker in high br matches japanese players only use fighters which means that it will constantly be 1 vs 2 in the air. Japan needs proper attackers and the forum is full of suggestions. You have no excuses to add any so please do something.
Japanese tanks are also riddled with problems. The working machinegunner sounds good on paper but when you realize that the tankers prioritize mg gunner spot over loader and even commander it will not sound as good. It is literally impossible to level up japanese tank squads when your 75mm cannon reloads as slow as IS-2. And if you ever lose even 1 crew member on battle your tanks performance will drop drastically. Please make the mg gunner spot the lowest priority just like it is with every other nations tanks.
I have no idea why japan is cursed with these “mechanics” while other nations are not. You should fix these as soon as possible instead of wasting your time adding more premium squads

There are lots of Japanese weapons and vehicles that could be added to TT, many people including me made posts about such. But well the developers even locked one of the most mass produced japanese tanks (Chi-Ha) behind a pay wall so it can be seen how much they care about it
I only think it is better to focus on making and adding new prototype TT weapons for Soviets x)
Even if you catch them the US bombers will shred you I don’t know what’s wrong with them.
Well in lower BR matches is the same since you have the Lighting that is a fighter while Japan ground attackers at lower BRs either have no MG or are bad not comparable to the lighting.

You can only hit each bomber with just bunch of bullets and then fly away, they will crash into a mountain and you will get everything without the need of shooting any down
It only works in guadalcanal. There are no mountains in gavutu
You are right, I kinda tend to forget about this map because its very rare to me
I managed to kill american bomber squad even with the BR II “A6M2 Reisen”. It’s not easy but possible if you react immediately after the announcement. Nevertheless you are right.
I’d like to have all aircraft take off from an airfield or aircraft carrier and repair/replenish only there. I find it illogical that you can replenish your ammunition anywhere in the air.
But I know that most players don’t want that.
I am one of those dudes who reported the issue of attack planes in br IV, no bombers and no fighter in br for tt in the III part

Please, can we fix this. This is especially problematic with tanks that don’t even have a functioning machine gun. It would be the greatest QOL for Japanese tank play off the top of my head and I’d be very happy to see this corrected.

I listed some planes for the Japanese fleet. Among them, good twin-engine fighters, which could be included, but as we know, Enlisted doesn’t make money with Japan, so we’re worth more than we are with the other factions with large groups.

I had an idea the other day that Americans should get small islands used as runways to start equally as fast as the Japanese planes, when the plane is not carrier based.
