IMPROVED IMPERIAL JAPANESE WW2 AA GUNS

Description
Most AA Nipon Guns were considered ineffective below about 35° elevation, Suffer instability at low angle, inaccuracy of the Japanese directors, lack of fire control director-to-gun automation, lack of proximity fuse salvos and many other aspects, in this mod idea i will try to imagine the fictional but natural evolution that these weapons could have if the japanese army and navy could make love and be friends developing better guns, the pack include historic, prototype and personal imaginary japanese AAGuns for all tastes.

the AA range for the 40mm and 57mm may be too short

The fact that this has the Type A mount from the Fubukis makes me very happy

Hey, is it possible if you can make Japanese Type 93 Torpedoes as well? As I cant find any Quintruple Launchers to make a ship such as Shimakaze.
