General information

Description
The Type 87 is a Self Propelled Anti Aircraft vehicle — the Japanese SPAAG built on a modified Type 74 chassis and entering JGSDF service in 1987, armed with twin 35 mm Oerlikon guns and a fire control system for engaging low-level aircraft and helicopters. In-game it is a tracked vehicle weighing 38 tonnes with a crew of three — driver, gunner, and commander — and features full active suspension (ride height, lateral roll, and pitch). The MHI 10ZF 22WT diesel produces 750 horsepower for 19.7 hp/t and a top speed of 53 km/h forward and 7.4 km/h backward, with neutral steering.
The turret mounts a 35mm Oerlikon KDA with a large magazine; the gunner has a laser rangefinder, fire control system with lead and tracking, and 1.5x–6x zoom. A laser warning system, stabilizer, and smoke grenades are fitted; the vehicle has no thermals in the main sight. This vehicle features a single addon: Improved Ammunition. The Improved Ammunition addon costs 1,500 points and replaces the stock DM13 round with the DM23 APDS; this upgrade almost doubles the maximum penetration, increasing it from 68 mm to 127 mm, and effectively transforms this anti-aircraft platform into a formidable anti-tank threat.
