More japanesee tanks are always nice, but I hope they implement the 57mm HEAT round to make that one less painful to play.

 

With this shell, even the I-Go will be a bit more competitive.

I can't find any information about the 57mm Type 90 having a HEAT round.

 

I think you may be confusing I-Go's Type 90 with the Type 97.

Both guns use Type3 HEAT.

Nooo,another useless tank with 57mm nooo.

The 57mm is great, what are you talking about? It has a higher explosive mass than the Pz.IV C/E gun.

some heats for y´all

Thats cool, so for anyone wondering this means that:

 

As mentioned Type 89 I-Go Ko and Type 97 Chi-Ha could achieve 55mm of pen

Type 2 Ho-I would have 100mm of pen with its HEAT shell (instead of 76mm in game).

Ho-Ni II equipped with the 105mm howitzer had 120mm pen, this vehicle would be fun if added.

Type 4 Ho-To with its 120mm howitzer would achieve 140mm of pen (a possible tier 2 or tier 3 vehicle maybe?)

Ho-Ro SPG achieved 150mm of pen with its howitzer, its br could be raised a bit if this shell is added.

This is the real Ke-Nu if you compare it to the Russian version which was a regular Ha-Go replicated as a Ke-Nu by the russians, you can see the real vehicle have no turret gap.

There are also mounts for the horseshoe antenna.

Ke-Nu would be an interesting addition, as the Ha-Go platform is surprisingly nimble, only falls short by its subpar 37mm gun, especially after all the nerfs. 57mm HEAT isnt half-bad, though, only stuck currently on the tall and boxy I-Go and long hulled and little bit awkward Chi-Ha.

Iirc the Ho-Ro cannot, the HEAT isn't compatible with the gun which is why it was removed in the first place.

Ha-Go should  be replaced by the Ke-Nu long time ago.

 

France got its own replacement for those tanks that got the same treatment as Ha-Go...
