Put the Japanese PAK 40 in BR3

Even before the update it was already very difficult to penetrate a Sherman in front with the Type 1 cannon because it only penetrates 55mm, I’ve managed it a few times but it’s very difficult.
But now just a few minutes ago I found a KV-1 completely sideways to me…


Why couldn’t I penetrate it? Skill issue? IT HAS 75MM OF THICKNESS THROUGHOUT THE HULL.


How am I supposed to penetrate a 75mm with a 55mm? And considering that Japan doesn’t have the Type 4 9cm in BR3 for now, Japanese infantry has great difficulty destroying tanks at long range, so my suggestion is to put the Japanese PAK 40 in BR3 so that the Japanese infantry has some chance against Shermans, KV-1 and KV-2


The other nations don’t have bad tanks;, their AT guns are better and their low-level BR anti-tank guns are able to penetrate the BR3 tanks.

The fact that they shiped the update without new AT (gun or launcher) for BR 3 is crazy to me.

Could we instead maybe get a better Japanese AT gun for BR III?

BR3 heavy AT with less HE, BR4 normal heavy AT.
There can be a more expensive, high resupply cost and triple building time even-heavier AT option for BRV. Pak 43 for German, 90mm M1A1 for USA, 100mm BS-3 for USSR, I’m sorry but I don’t know what for Japan. But half the HE ammo.
Half the HE ammo.

This makes absolutely no sense Lol

Agree, but until the PAK 40 is removed and replaced, it’s better to put it on BR3

Got it. We’ll see a new AT gun for Japan in 2028

Maybe the Type 5 cannon (105mm)
The same one used in Ho-Ri.
