Type 100 "Kagami"
Basically a Ho-Ro c:

History
The Type 100 "Kagami" Self Propelled Howitzer is a Japanese pre-war multirole vehicle. It has served as both an indirect artillery piece due to its exceptional gun elevation and as a tank destroyer.
With a top speed of 36 kph it is able to change positions relatively quickly, though it lacks acceleration. The "Kagami" offers incredible brakes, which enable it to perform almost 90 degree turns at an instant while sacrificing all speed, this is quite useful for both general driving and for escaping enemy fire.

"Kagami", meaning "Mirror" received its nickname from crews because of its intimating armament, a Type 38 150mm Howitzer.
A captured enemy soldier who had fought the vehicle stated that: "It's like staring at death itself, before it fires its like your entire life flashes before your eyes, because that gun.. Theres no surviving a hit from it." The soldier who provided this statement was executed for looking at a commander strangely and their name has been lost to time.

Using its High Explosive ammunition, it could cause immense damage to enemy vehicles and fortifications, but the weight of its ammo caused crews to struggle when reloading, leading to it having a slow reload for the year it was used.
The "Kagami" had a decent production run, with just under 900 being built, this was possible due to it sharing a hull with several other tanks.
Armor was not the main priority of this vehicle, leading to it having basically no armor protection other than the steel and rivots that hold it together.
A combination of easily penetrated armor and high rates of crew abandonment during combat, around 120 "Kagami" tanks were lost due to this, often being completely destroyed or captured.





Stats and Features

Startup Procedure [VERY IMPORTANT]

  4. Once Engine Runs Disable the starter switch




Further Notes
- Clutch is needed to shift into gear ( Press and hold 1, while holding shift gear, then release clutch )
- Has very sensitive turning. To turn slowly, let go of A/D before letting go of the throttle. ( W/S )
- In order to get the drivers seat to fit, i had to move it into place using a slider and a pivot, this makes it a little unstable at low physics, but it rarely causes any issues.
- Slow reload speed ( ~14 sec )
- This little guy is basically just a Ho-Ro


About the Project
The Pacific Front is a Alternate History Project about the time from 1940s through to the 70s in a time of turmoil, war and desperation. It focuses on the countries around the pacific ocean, like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Russia, China and a lot more. All the the project vehicles are fictional in nature and have their own story, lore and design. The Projects creations have a tendency for high fidelity, decoration and multi crew operation.
