since you are a former jmsdf personnel, i am asking you. you know japan has an aging population, so in a hypothetical situation, says in ww3, japan will need massive troops supply which the japanese population would not be able to guarantee.

is there any contingency plan ? will japan recruit foreigners as troopers in such case? thats a good idea, you see, you have money, there are so many sorry men who are starving living in some third world $hitholes, you can use them, a few bucks would buy their loyalty. you can learn from the us.

You are right. At least Japan is doing a good job pretending to respect Vietnam, Philippines and India.

I think Type 10 is a good MBT, it can also do hit and run backward with same speed.

I saw Type10's hit-and-run and backward shoot, i ask shooting accuracy? Even t90 displayed jump-and-hit, but it's just a tank show didn't care whether shell hit the target. If each hit-and-run, get targets it would be a good MBT.

The Type 10 MBT can hit target(s) with dead on accuracy while on full speed.

Maybe, if pics it's better.

Just like 2014 Russia Tank Game China ZTZ96A MBT hit-and-run video, full speed 3x shot and 3x targets and ZTZ96 is the inferior MBT in PLA.
