Improvement of Japanese Tank Crew

Japanese tanks currently is that the machine gunner is inside the tank.
If the machine gunner dies, the loader takes over the role of the machine gunner, meaning the loader performs the role of the machine gunner.
(In tanks with a crew of 5)In other countries’ tanks, even with four crew members remaining, there is still a loader position available. However, in Japanese tanks, if there are four crew members, the loader position remains vacant. Why is the machine gunner placed above the loader? The loader can perform a more useful role than the machine gunner, especially considering the fixed machine guns on Japanese tanks.

The solution is simple: the loader should be placed above the machine gunner. This way, if one crew member dies, the machine gunner can take over the loader’s role. Japanese tanks require a loader more than a machine gunner.

This issue exists in most Japanese tanks and premium tanks
in the case of the Chi-Ha tank, if one crew member dies, the tank commander’s position remains vacant while the machine gunner’s position is fill

This problem happen because most of the Japanese tanks don’t have coaxial mg so hull mg was made to be used by players. I do agree a loader is much more needed then someone on mg position.

Additionally I would like to point out with the Na-To:

There is a machinegunner slot despite it not having a MG.
Plus the loaders have weapons and should be able to shoot from the sides when not actively helping to reload the cannon.

All radio operator in tank had been renamed to machine gunner since the introduction of Pacific campaign.

Lol they are crew in a tank destroyer, this is not an APC.
