Japan BR I - paratrooper squad with SMG / paratroopers weapon rework

Give us a japanese paratrooper squad with the “Type 100 paratrooper SMG”.
I mean, common Darkflow / Gaijin: you gave it to the premium medic squad but it never occurred to you to equip the current japanese paratrooper squad with it, even though the SMG was made for them (which the name suggests)

Idea for a small rework:
So do us a favour and rework the paratrooper squads: allow us to change the weapon like with the russian paratrooper squad!

Yes… Because they desperately need more. Not.

Yes, they need.
Axis has 2 paratrooper squads on BR I and BR II - both with SMG’s and in total they have 4 paratrooper squads
Allies has also 2 paratrooper squads on BR II - with SMG’s and semi-auto rifle and in total they have 4 paratrooper squads.
Japan has 1 paratrooper squad on BR I - rifle’s only and in total they have 2 paratrooper squads
USSR has 1 paratrooper squad on BR I - can change weapons and in total they have 2 paratrooper squads

Japan lacks few things - specially an equal paratrooper squad on BR I / II, or a second mortar like every other nations but that’s another story.


Where exactly is the problem? Just rework all paratroopers like I mentioned and give them the option to chance the weapons (like with the russian paratrooper squad) for all paras. All nations would benefit from that.

Fully support - beyond the obvious PARATROOPER weapon, and a suitable paratrooper squad while a copy paste - is already present with several legacy squads - such as M3 modification or Beretta M1918 squads that are available in multiples.

Bipod variant is a good differentiation. Again, would be great to see for parity etc

BR III paratroopers is a must the BR IV paratroopers are very boring since all my squads are using this weapon maybe if im too bored one day I may buy them. But simply right now I’m playing BR II and BR III Japan sometimes when im bored I go play with N1K2-J amazing plane but very limited anti-ground capabilities. But if they give me paratroopers with this uniform for sure im buying them :smiley:

Because the squad was added before paratroopers were added in Enlisted. And why should dev give premium weapon to other squad? This will just piss off those players who bought the squad.

Imagine DF would release the Jagdpanther and the KV-2 as premium and put it now in TechTree → oh, wait it already happened. :wink:

Because they are different model? And you are proposing to add the same model to other squad.

Both Jagdpanther’s have and use the same model! Dude, open your eyes :sweat_smile: The only difference is purely visual (upper hull, antenna) which doesn’t has any effect on the game. Even the stats are the same (only difference amount of ammo).



Or let’s take the Johnson M1941 premium engineer squad and the Johnson M1941 from the TechTree as second example. Both weapons are 1:1 identical.

here another example: Pz. IV J Premium and non-Premium
Both are 1:1 identical. The only difference: I haven’t upgraded the TechTree version atm, so that’s why it as less engine power, …
