How to sort of have some fun as the Japanese

I may be alone on this,but I personally find shooting enemy planes down from the ground to be very satisfying.this method may not be much useful for your team or give much XP, but it’s something to do when you get tired of dying 24/7.I do this every now and then just to get a bit of XP for Japan and have fun shooting down some allied planes,which are almost always up in the Pacific.this may become the primary way I play high BR japan after the upcoming update with how much stuff the US is getting that will make fighting head on a nightmare.

step 1:bring the Ta-Se (while you are a more detectible target then AA guns,you can much more easily relocate) and as many squads that can build AA guns (preferably that have radio operators)

step 2:find an out of the way area in your greyzone to put your AA gun or park your Ta-Se

step 3:wait,and a short time later you should encounter an enemy plane

step 4:shoot down the plane or attempt to

step 5:while waiting for the next plane,call in artillery if available and replenish ammo if necessary

While I would say please dont waste a tank slot for an already struggling team on a Ta-Se, however your other BR1 options aint much better. Though the Ka-Mi isnt terrible either following the advice of someone else here, and using the top MG as well.

Personally I recommend doing this on defence missions, either try to balance shooting out from the point with swapping to an AA gun only when you hear an aircrafts engine. Or building an AA gun near your rally point (Either while attacking or defending).

A great spot I found is the breached freighter, an AA gun just fore and aft of the main superstructure works well, just sandbag and barb wire the climbing ropes on the enemies side. You can then even mess about with mortars or snipers later in that same position. (Assuming that the map allows you to remain in the fight while doing this, dont be that guy)
