Nowhere have I ever said those aircraft are balanced at BR2, in fact I’d say they’re next to useless.
Even the in-game model has an extra pair of weapon racks not being used right next to the ones with rockets on them.

Yes, they have 2: J2M3 and N1K2-J
Well they are not for rockets rockets are not installed like bombs normally the modified variant that can carry rockets its called N1K1-J Kai Shiden model 11Kai its a modification of N1K2-J a dive bomber modification so it should be a ground attacker they are fitted with large ventral pannier containing 6 launching tubes for rockets. What we have in game is absolute fictional variant that have rockets put like bombs on a standard variant they better put on the standard variant 2 x 250 kg bombs or 4x250 kg bombs and make a ground attacker variant with rockets.
All the other jets are fighter and that’s where the jet goes in game… if it goes in attacker then that opens up another spot for a jet for example the fake one they removed from warthunder.
No reason why japan should get special treatment just because their air power sucks.
The solution isn’t changing it to attacker it’s adding other aircraft to fill the gap of BRV attacker.
That’s news to me… i heard that the type 9 rockets have the highest tnt load than any other in game… which according to the sheet the .5 increase doesn’t really equate to that much of a difference and in some cases of worse
FW rockets are a bit better funny enough but they are very close in performance. The FW rockets are the biggest Sherman killer in game if its not a jumbo you can directly frontally pen it resulting in direct kills under the right angle and the post pen damage is better and the high velocity of the rocket makes it more accurate.

What aircraft could they add to be a BR5 attacker for Japan? Also keeping the Kikka as a fighter based off the slim chance they add the R2Y2 as a fighter is ridiculous.
Maybe I should make a suggestion with N1K2-J with all its variant so the people will decide what they like 
I said that as a reason they shouldn’t… then they could technically get another jet because jets are fighters in game.
I’m not sure but i am confident there’s something… the ki 83 could carry much better ordinance for a start.
The document has already shown
N1K2-Ja variant adds extra medium bombrack, can carry 4 250kg bomb, but there is no mention that it can carry another pair of rocket, rockets require more complex circuitry than bombs. Unfortunately, what we have is the N1K2-J version (紫電改二一 vs 紫電改二一甲).
And there’s one experimental variant carry ventral pannier with 6 rocket, but we don’t have this model even in warthunder
Nither the way I don’t see any possibility that we’ll have extra rocket for N1K
Okay well then 2 bombs and 2 rockets, either way it’s a rightful buff
Well all of them are N1K2 variants its not that hard to make them they are literally same plane with slight modifications and they can change the name not that hard. Not to mention all UK planes have US bombs that do not fit so I really dont see what the problem is.
