Nation specific highBR AT-guns for Japan

Japan currently use the german “75mm PaK40/3 L46” in the highBR matches. According to DF / Gaijin, this was only intended to be a “temporary” option because there wasn’t enough time to complete the japanese and russian highBR AT-guns. A few months have passed since then, and nothing has changed.

Japan also deserve their own high-range AT-gun. Therefore, I suggest the two following variants:

1. Type 90 75 mm field gun
→ over 786 were produced during 1932-1945

2. Type 92 10 cm cannon
→ 180 - 202 were produced during 1933–1943

japanese “Type 90 75 mm field gun” maybe lack penetration (103mm). It’s the same gun which HO-Ni I uses and that one will have troubles against tanks like Sherman Jumbo, …, T26E4
That’s why I added a second one which might be better for that role in high BR

Honestly I remember when I was looking for options, I thought it might be a good idea to forgo the heavy AT platform the Japanese due to a lack of true options, and instead allow them a buildable coastal gun, like 120mm+, I mean its slow reload would prevent it being over powered, while at once would really live up to the pacfic theme of Japanese fortress mountains.

imo Type 90 is more comparable to an American 57mm M1 than Pak 40
