Did you use it already? How much damage it does and how good are the sights?
Continuing the discussion from Preliminary patch notes of major update :
regarding controls and UI, can we please switch soldiers using numpad, also please change color of friendly artillery strike and increase contrast on japanese minimap cuz its hard to see
they could change it to the correct stat in the future so i am a bit hopeful

with how hard is it to find stat for japan gun (not to mention the possibility of mistranslation) i could understand they finding wrong document and put 400 instead of 720

Aaaawwwe yeah! It’s the good turret!!!
I wonder if the Ju uses the 20mm one.
Same damage and sight as the Hei Rifle, but it has the weird effect of the bolt going up and obstructing your sight when you shoot.
It will be food for T20 rifle.

But
Should be noted that there is also a 30 round magazine, I’ll post the gif I made again which shows the 30 round mag.
I’ll give some other stats since people are interested in this gun a lot and there sometimes is just plain wrong info on them
(Translated and discussed with a friend of mine)
Name: Ultra-Light Machine gun
Manufacturer: Nippon Special Steel
Length: 1,007mm,
Weight: 5.4/5.6kg
Action: Toggle-lock, closed bolt
Sight: Aperture rear sight with tangent leaf, adjusted by a drum.
Rate of fire: 720rpm
Bayonet lug: yes
Selector switch: Three position (safe, semi and full) selector lever
Reload: by changing mag or loading with clips
Magazine Capacity: 20 round (30 round mag was made as well)
Recoil: worse than Type 96 LMG, but better than infantry rifle.
Overheat: cook offs often occurred
Muzzle velocity: 730m/s
Accuracy: Worse than Type 96 LMG firing in semi at 300 and 700 meters, even with shield attached. Firing in auto at 300 meters, all rounds were in a 4×4m2 square except the first round
Magazin release position:
If you wonder what the “bar” right in front of the magazine is, our best understanding is that its a dust cover that could be closed when you remove the magazine.
Where normally LMGs would be issued one per squad (分隊) the Ultra-light machine gun would be issued two per squad. We’re not sure if it was crew served but we assume it wasn’t.

It’s exactly as I thought. The ersatz m10 has better visibility than classic Panther.
