Japanese Paratroopers

Having just recently started the Japanese grind, I noticed that there is only one paratrooper in Japan. That was handed out at an event about 2 years ago.

Looking at the store, I see paratroopers for sale in every country except Japan. New players playing in Japan are currently not able to use paratroopers, which I think is unfair.
Please consider selling airborne troops for Japan.
Perhaps an airborne version of the “Giretsu Kuteitai” that is currently available as a premier squadron could be sold, or perhaps a squad modeled after the IJN Airborne.

By the way, there is a premier squad with a Type 100 paratrooper SMG, but they are medics for some reason. As the name suggests, this gun is supposed to be a paratrooper weapon.
How about having this gun in the hands of the premier paratroopers?

Surely, since paratrooper class was introduced to the game during april 2023.

Anyway, in editor there’s already some new stuff pointing towards new Japanese paras.

oh, a year ago? I thought it was more like 3 or 4 years ago.
Before the merge, the only paratroopers the US could have in the Pacific were the ones handed out at the same event, but now these guys are coming to the Pacific.

I hope the imbalance is resolved soon.

Great we might see some more event and premium paratroopers for Japan. Hopefully Americans won’t cry about it.

Btw, I would like to inform those who use Japanese Airborne.
When I started using this unit, I gave all my men Type 14 sidearms, but apparently the real paratroopers had Type 94s, which are the cheapest in the game.
If you want to go for a HA setup, the type94 is better.
I wasted my silver.

Funny I always use type 94 pistols because I don’t have enough silver.

Btw.

I hope they will rather mirror the Soviet paratroopers. Meaning, not binded with only one specific premium weapon.

That would be possible if darkflow introduces an assault rifle for Japan. But I don’t know if it’s possible at all. I couldn’t find anything like that.

Well, they should. Especially if they’re planning to add assault engineers to Japan and US.

But, current Soviet paratroopers can use smgs as well. Not just ARs.

Indeed. But if there is a premium Japanese paratrooper squad it has to come with a assault rifle for value just like the soviet squad. And I am also hoping for a lot of suggestions from the western allies as well suggesting nothing but nerf.

Japanese paratroopers should have the ability to equip any weapon like Soviet paratroopers.

I wish all countries’ paratroopers were like that.
And I want to choose what I keep in the box too.

I would ditch my BR4 OG-43 in a heartbeat.

why this and no the nambu?

Well, but the issue isnt OG :smirk::smirk::smirk: The whole problem is related to flamethrowers :smirk:

#DontEvenTryToPutFolgoreParasToLowBR

because Darkflow spagetthi code prevents the removal of flamethrowers from paratrooper box.

I doubt. Since they replaced weapons in other boxes.

Maybe the 5th tab is problematic. Meaning there’s potentially not a way hoe to hide it.
But they could always replace those 6 flamethrowers for different weapons at BR1-3 parabox preset.

They’re just lazy/scared to come up with proper solution, i guess.

First of all both of them are nambu. And the reason I use type 94 because I am poor in the game.

At least darkflow could have reduced the br of that squad to be 3.
