Japaneese tank?
« on: November 24, 2010, 09:05:33 PM »
How about adding a few japaneese tanks into the game? We dont have any other tanks than american, british and german. Maybe if the Type 97 "Chi Ha" was included we'd have more sherman killers out there.  :D
The type 97 "chi Ha" had a 7.6mm hull gun, a 7.6mm pintle and some variants were fitted out with 45mm's and 75mm's 76mm's as main turrets.
The armor on the Type 97 was relatively weak 33mm turret front, 26mm turret sides and rear, 19mm turret top, 20mm hull front, 9mm hull sides, 20mm hull rear, 8mm hull bottom.
Its top speed was 38 KP/H and can move at a moderate speed on rough/flat terrains. (so ive heard)
The type 97 was used alot in the WW2 Pacific Campain to fight off the M4 Shermans that seemed to be tearing the Japaneese to shreds.
It was also a Tank vs Infantry vehicle (kind of like the type 87 wich had a 37mm)
The type 97 could be a great addition to the game and it might turn out to be a good base-capping vehicle.
The type 97 could also be used with AP/HE rounds, its turret help up to 50 AP/HE rounds and about 1200 Machine gun rounds.
The hull turret held up to 1100 rounds and it was relatively easy to knock out.
If we get this amazing tank i think we should have a choice on what size turret we want on it.
Im open to critisicm and im eager to hear your responses, tell me what you think   :cheers:  :salute :joystick:

As far as I can recall, they never said no to the B-29, only the nuke.
