Japanese military first showed Type 10 tank inside

A Japanese video appeared on the web tank Type 10, for the first time since being adopted by the Japanese military, journalists were allowed to look inside the tank.

The fourth generation tank began to be developed in the 1990s. In Japan, Type 10 was first demonstrated in the city of Sagamihara on February 13, 2008 at the research center of the Ministry of Defense of Japan (TRDI). During development work, this tank was known under the indices MVT-X and TK-X. The tank entered the arsenal of the Japanese army in January 2012.




The main parameters of Type 10: length (with gun forward) - 9420 mm; height - 2300 mm; width - 3240 mm; weight - 44 tons, crew - 3 people. The main armament is a Japanese-made 120 mm smoothbore gun with a 44-caliber barrel length. Caliber anti-aircraft machine gun - 12,7 mm, coaxial - 7,62 mm. The automatic loader is located in the rear of the tower. The maximum speed of the car when driving on paved roads is 70 kilometers per hour. Hydropneumatic suspension makes it possible to change the clearance of the car, tilt it to the sides. The car uses modular ceramic composite armor, and an engine with a capacity of 1200 hp. accelerates it to 70 km / h.

The main emphasis in the development of the tank was made on C4I systems and on increasing mobility, protection and firepower. To provide a higher level of protection, additional mounted modules can be used, while the mass of the machine increases to 48 tons.

        Is this the most interesting? In my opinion, the most interesting thing is that this product is clearly not defensive, but offensive in nature and it is created to strengthen the local army, and after all, according to the results of the WWII of Japan, it is forbidden to have armed forces.
        Therefore, the lack of reaction and notes of protest from the Southeast Asian countries, the most affected by Japanese fascism, as well as Russia as the successor to the USSR and the winner in WWII, is interesting.
        The annual August reminders in Russia of the atomic bombing of two Japanese cities in 1945 in some part of the Russian population develop a false sense of compassion for Japan and the Japanese, while meanwhile Japan shares the first place with the number of Southeast Asian citizens killed and the cruelty shown to the civilian population fascist Germany.

            I did not engage in lawyers in Japan, but as a representative of a country that has repeatedly experienced the aggressive desires of the Japanese, I doubt that this product is created to deter a hypothetical invader of Japan on the territory of Japan itself, therefore, the thesis on defense is completely not applicable to Japan fits though it is a favorite horror story in the lips of Japanese politicians.

                Despite the fact that knowledge of the fundamentals of military affairs, in addition to everything else, involves knowledge of the theater of operations. Of course, you can reassure yourself that Japanese tanks are needed for defensive operations on the territory of Japan itself, but it looks quite unconvincing.

                    I would also add to your opponent that, oddly enough, the maximum number of wars and conflicts Russia had not even with Turkey, but with the Swedes!

                    As for Type 10, it is specifically designed for the Japanese transport network and the load of about 80% of Japanese bridges. It was made precisely by weight for primarily Japanese communications by weight.

                    I had a similar conversation with one dude, who also booted something on the "ten".

            I see the regiment of defenders of Japan has arrived. If, in your classification of "semi-mountainous" tanks, this product is intended to protect the Japanese mountainous spaces, then with the same success they can be used in the vast expanses of Southeast Asia, which is a mountainous area. And since, despite the prohibition following the WWII results, Japan has a rather impressive navy, it will not be difficult for it to transfer its tanks to the mainland theater of operations, despite the fact that there will be where to deploy, unlike the territory of Japan itself.
            Yes, by the way, for all the defenders of Japan, I want to remind you that many American military bases are located on its territory. Question - If a new product is defensive, then who is this daredevil who will climb to the Japanese islands to capture them along with American military bases? The question is not idle. Who needs such hemorrhoids.

              Only recently quoted. There is no such lock, and unfortunately
              The Japanese had a self-ban on any war in the context, but they understand it very flexibly.
              Prior to this, their self-defense of their territory is not a war, but now, they flexibly rethought and realized that if they help the Allies defend themselves, even abroad, this is not a war either.
              So the tanks fit into their new vision.

              There was no ban on the army, following the results of the Second World War. The Japanese themselves wrote down on the defensive doctrine in the constitution, and they call the army self-defense forces. Suppose the Yapis did not have marines and airborne assault forces. But now the military is insistently asking for a little amendment to the constitution.

        The loading mechanism is 100% at height, like everything else made in Japan. In World War II, there were excellent Japanese planes on the theater of operations, but all this did not help the Kwantung Army to provide any resistance whatsoever to either the Amers or the Soviet Army.

            I will say the seditious thing that the tank crew should not engage in heavy repair work, such as replacing the rollers or pulling the track.
            You do not require the pilots to repair their planes?
            A modern tank is full of electronics and screens. And it is important that the tankers are familiar with this technique.
            So that you can work for hours in virtual space without protruding from the tank
            Then they will be able to effectively shoot and maneuver.
            And the tank should be repaired by technicians on special tracked armored personnel carriers - "technical". With special equipment, not crowbars.

On the battlefield, troubleshooting is quick; sometimes it’s the end of the battle you drag technicals in a raid? you are apparently disturbed by the fact that you are calculating everything based on your theater of operations. on ours, such tricks will end in just a massive loss of technology.

        Moreover, soldiers often serve very long periods and you can easily see age-related (over 30, or even under 40) privates. I once saw a Japanese storyline movie, just about the only Japanese tank division, so marveled at this.

          Well, Armata should not be criticized for having displays. but for the size and power of the engine. And also KAZ on Armata will protect from Toe, but not from Javelin and ammunition from UAVs.

            But it was just for the displays))) And the dimensions, taking into account the very small tower itself, are not so outstanding there, Western tanks are not far behind, the engine is not such a problem, it eats too much fuel and it is difficult to repair, yes - flaws, but over time a new dviglo will appear, do you say KAZ does not protect against javelins? So this is not his task - he protects from BOPS, this is the main thing, he protects from Javs, as they wrote in the comment below - the "umbrella" system is a softkill, but effective))) The difference is that the javelin is shot down or flew away into the hemp distance, because the goal lost?

              I would not be so sure if the javelin lost the target on the ascending line of the trajectory. then that would be true, I don’t know in which section of the trajectory the radar detects launch, if it approaches it hardly it will fail .. Even western tanks look smaller than Armata. And the tower at Armata is not at all small.

                The infrared head, when it loses its target (lights up, etc.), is inclined to lead the missile along completely unpredictable trajectories. moreover, a machine spraying an aerosol cloud above itself can quickly change its location.

                Yah? and where? You estimate - how it looks in the field - when you see from a few kilometers not the whole tank, but only its part - namely the tower ... The body of the T-14 is 20 centimeters higher than that of other cars, and the tower is not inhabited , and very small, its defeat does not strongly guarantee the death or complete failure of the machine. Western cars will have a huge shed sticking out - break it and the tank is guaranteed to be dead.

          No. No, you can argue a lot with me for a long time. But the Germans and the Japanese, I understand very well. There is a German basis. With the traditional Japanese component.

      An interesting car made. In appearance, the authors were inspired by the idea of ​​Leopard and Abrams. But in fact the tank is more similar to Soviet / Russian vehicles. AZ, machine gun weapons, mass, mobility. I wonder how failed hydropneumatic suspension? In the video, the piece of iron does not stick anywhere. And the shooting was conducted at all on a polygon smooth as a billiard table. It’s clear that for beginners to study, that’s it. But there will be no such training ground in the war.
      It is very likely that the Japanese designers took into account the experience of both the Kwantung Army and Khalkhin Gola.

Excellent technology, and heavy engines and grip and driver comfort, and works in Yakutia at -40. In addition, there is no better SUV in this world than TOYOTA, it works in Yakutia and the Sahara equally and in the Himalayas.
      Most importantly 44t and 1200hp. What’s the matter with the reservation? What gun and charge? But they say that it is possible to add KAZ 4 tons and then there will be 48 tons. at 1200ls. The main problem is that Japanese technicians are expensive, but they doubt that it is worth not worth it!

The fact that tankers with glasses pa is normal for them, the yellow race of the ice creatures is weak genetically it’s hard to get good pilots.
