Tanks to Compete with the Ho-Ri

BR6 that’s just prototypes.

I wouldnt mind as long BR6 doesnt downtier, but knowing DF I would have to fight BR6 even with BR4.

Man if devs start modelling some stuff that’s not in WT it would be awesome they definitely can do than they made flame tanks but they don’t

Mainly because there is little point of making them when there is still tons of stuff that you can copy from War Thunder. It will also save time and money.

My main quarrel is Kraut and Commie paper. I’m just abusing Japs to get my point across

[khtk395]

@TheUnclaimedOne

Commie paper.

What is the commie paper that you refer to? You haven’t answered me.

[TheUnclaimedOne]

I think a limited event would be better

[TheUnclaimedOne]

Someone else has the specifics. LAD is one I believe. There’s at least one other

[khtk395]

@TheUnclaimedOne

LAD is one I believe.

Wrong. So you didn’t even know what is paper and you complain?

LAD machine gun

[SzepWaxweiler]

But what maps would BR6 have same maps as in game or maybe new maps inspired by ALT history where the prototypes were mass produced

[Atomik_Invader]

Honestly I could see an event giving away the T29, Maus and IS3. IDK what Japan could get tho.

[TheUnclaimedOne]

No an event to use them, not reward them

[Greyparrots]

With how things are going it’s just an eventuality

[SzepWaxweiler]

@Atomik_Invader

IDK what Japan could get.

There are some tanks

@SzepWaxweiler

On a side not I would like to see Heavy Tank number 4 added

The turret of Heavy Tank No. 4 was used as a stationary gun in Manchuria has 14 CM cannon was about to be mounted on top of CHI-RI never happened since CHI-RI production itself wasn’t doing well also was going to have 200 mm of armor even on CHI-RI chassis how? Most likely by adding extra armor around the tank like what soviets did with E variants of tanks like T28-E
also another tank that would be awsome to see would be Ho-RI II and 1

(Ho-RI II)

(Ho-ri I)

OR they can add a variant of Ho-ri II with a Type 5 105 mm cannon and AA


Or if they feel fancy they could add O-I

Or if it was with me I would have added Chi-se a planned tank to mount the Ho-ri cannon on Chi-ri

Chi-Se was a very late WW2 project of using existing components to create an ultimate medium tank. The Chi-Se would combine the fully rotating turret and mobility from medium tanks, and the firepower from the Ho-Ri tank destroyer - the 10.5 cm gun. Alongside those, the Chi-Se would use a new kind of suspension type from the usual bell crank suspension (which was used on almost every Japanese tank during WW2), which was already experimented on the Chi-Ri during it’s design phase. The Chi-Se is usually portrayed as a bigger Chi-Ri with a 10.5 cm gun and hull of sloped armor.
While there’s no actual solid proof that the Chi-Se was more or less a heavier Chi-Ri, there’s a very good chance the Chi-Se was that, as most of the medium tanks of Japan were basically bigger evolutions of previous designs.

I can also add Chi-Ri with 88 mm type 99 AA gun but that’s completely fake

[TheUnclaimedOne]

@SzepWaxweiler

completely fake

Pfft may as well be close enough at this point

[James_Grove]

@TheUnclaimedOne

T29, T30, and T34 are all fair game for us?

It’s kinda post war tanks so let’s not get ahead of the time that we have rn in the game.
Plus there is a lot more tanks to choice and add.

Actually 88 mm was what Americans thought that CHI-RI would get since there was no cannon the chi-ri they captured and turret was big for 75 mm so they thought the Japs were trying to put a 88 mm gun in it later documents showed that big turret was because of Auto loader

[lolispats420]

T28, T29, T30, T34, and T95 were all wartime tanks, I believe. Scrapped as soon as the war was over. Same with the Super Hellcat.

[TheUnclaimedOne]

That’s…kinda the point I’m making. The Condors wasn’t finished until the Americans got their hands on it POST war and the Ho-Ri is a piece of wood. Both were fictional as of Japanese surrender in 1945. Much like the tanks I suggested

[TheUnclaimedOne]

Not sure about the Super Heavies, and the T34 I believe is truly post war, but yeah the T29 and T30 were in development during the war

[lolispats420]

My bad, it seems that’s correct. T32 and T34 seem to have both been actually delivered postwar.
But the T28/T95 were in fact produced during WW2.

[TheUnclaimedOne]

@lolispats420

T28/T95 were in fact produced during WW2.

We made that behemoth DURING? That’s insane
