Men of War: Assault Squad 2 - Imperial Japanese Army in GSM

[@101DeathJester]

Sherman, that circular design is a safety knob like on the mosin Nagant, and is decorated with the imperial chrysanthemum to show it belongs to the emperor of Japan. Also as far as Japanese guns not being good, that's really true of the pistols... Some of the nambu's are extremely dangerous to use. There are videos of the type14 done by the KZbinr "Forgotten weapons" where pressing on the side of the pistol will fire it with out pulling the trigger. But the rifles are generally very good quality.

[@zman1508]

Most Japanese automatic and semi automatic weapons had major flaws but their arisaka rifles had one of the strongest actions of any ww2 bolt action rifle

[@zman1508]

Also the F22 is basically unbeatable no other nation on earth has anything that comes close yet

[@theShermanator]

zman1508 the PAK 50 from the Russians is a Russian copy also - there are less than 200 Raptors I believe + what is the kill ratio for F22s vs what enemies

[@zman1508]

Is the pak 50 in service in any way? The F22 is also a 1990's aircraft and still no other nation has a stealth aircraft in any sort of service. And the PAK 50 might be equal to the F35's in terms of stealth but it is highly unlikely it will be the equal of the F 22. The F22 is the only aircraft in the US inventory that has been blocked from export to any other nation even US allies. Also while the combat records of the F 22 are rather small and the amount of them is also small this is a direct result of its original purpose which was a conventional WW3 scenario against a enemy with sophisticated fighter aircraft and AA assets. Its the same reason why vehicles such as the marder 2 or the Comanche were canceled. They were simply not worth the cost in a post cold war era. Also russia's newest planes have even less combat testing than those of the USA. While I agree that those discovery channel documentaries are generally bullshit (The stupidest one i saw stated that the BAR was the best LMG of WW2) the F22 simple has no modern equal the Pak 50 is set to enter service in 2017 and the predictions for its avalible export by russia itself are 2025. So russia will have its first stealth fighter 25 years minimum after the US accepted the Yf-22 and 11 years after the F22 entered mass service. But both in my opinion are a waste of money. The modern battlefield is fought not against nations but against insurgents and against these threats semi competent SEAD and multirole combat aircraft are all that is needed. Also about the japanese guns many of their machine guns needed an oiler device to oil the cases to allow for easy extraction while these guns worked without these they did not work reliably. Oil however attracts particulate matter such as sand. On some of the volcanic islands the japanese and americans fought on the volcanic sand was so fine that even 1903 springfield rifles or type 99 rifles would jam.

[@zman1508]

nhatduy inouele The first versions wont even have their own engines they will use Su27 engines how will it supposedly be more stealthy without having engines designed for it? Also the Pak 50 is the first stealth aircraft to come out of a country other than the USA the USA even has combat experience with F117 nighthawks. However in my opinion all stealth aircraft are a waste of money. They are designed to fight a third world war against a sophisticated enemy not bomb insurgents day in day out again and again and again. Twin engined multiroles like the Su27 the Euro-fighter and the F18 are a much better fit in my opinion. Also the Pak may be better than the F35 in terms of stealth but it will in no way compare to the F22.

[@inouelenhatduy]

zman1508 + sealth are shity anyway you can find them by heat seak su27/30 and pak got them and can find the target from 50km or 60km away sealth are good to fight agian 3world country or fight agian low tech army + pak are on the same lv of the f22 that for sure + f35 suck even the f16 can fuck that bitch up :)) in a dog fight even the guy that design the f16 are saying that f35 are crap and wasted of money plane :)) + yhea su30 su35 , f18 or rafael or sab giffen are way better to used in war because they are cheap +easy maintain ( way more easyer than a f35 or sealth plane ) they can carry more weapon than f35 PS: eurofighter aint that good they have many problem with the plane

[@RichardVarnegan]

7:40 the type 4 is a rare un licensed copy of the grand with 2 differences. 1. It takes the 7.7 mm round of the type 99, and 2. It has a 10 round clip that does not ‘ping’.

[@darklight436]

The Japanese type 99, Arisaka was mass produced for European use. The Finnish bought shit loads of these for their military. GSM is missing so much things for the Japanese, I'd want the "Yatsu Igo" (Goliath) tracked bomb, Giretsu commandos, Knee mortars, Na-to tank destroyer, Type Ge AT gun, or the mortar launched rocket artillery.

[@inouelenhatduy]

darklight436 knee mortars is the name of the allied tks to that name many us soldier broken they leg lol :))

[@ThrushRebellion]

The Shermanator The reason you've never heard of the type 4 is because it was one of those "oh, fuck we're gonna lose this war so lets make a weapon that would only make a difference if we introduced it earlier like we fucking should have" weapons. and it was pretty much an M1 copy.

[@theShermanator]

Joseph Kurtz haha alright thanks!

[@chaosXP3RT]

The Arisaka was a very good rifle and very reliable; however the later in the war you go, the less reliable they were.

[@docsinclair4097]

Gundesign: take a Close look at the Mosin, it's also got that "button". It's used to cock the firing pin once again in case of a misfire.

[@konz7185]

I think the little circle at the back of each gun has the Imperial seal on it.

[@theShermanator]

[@tankerjoe]

those documentaries I actually saw one that said the t-34 was better than the Sherman

[@fluffyjosh5869]

Double you'll see this Sherman but the circle on the back is the safety mechanism if you push it in and turn clockwise it keeps bolt from moving

[@theShermanator]

+josh bryan I can confirm I saw this :P thanks!

[@davidmeier4010]

Many japanese guns did suck, but there is also the type 99 and the type 100, those were good, also the japanese hotchkiss mg was reliable

[@wontonthekillerpanda]

Late to the party, but the "circular" design on the back of the rifles is actually the safety. You use the palm of your hand to press it in and twist to activate/deactivate. At least that's what it's for on my Type 99.

[@hammergon587]

The GSM developers should have put in the Mi-To/O-I.

[@harrymontgomery8115]

i could be wrong about this Sherman but the circle bit on the end of there rifles was the safety at lest for the arisaka so yea

[@hitsunakousaka9497]

some of those "circular" things on the guns are actually the bolt on the rifle since most japanese rifles are bolt-action with the exception of a few

[@SadCheetah]

The famous Japanese water gourd (Doubles as an AT grenade)

[@SadCheetah]

The circular thing at the back? Are you talking about the Imperial Japanese seal? Probably why no other nation uses it.

[@theShermanator]

Schütze Königstiger hahaha supposedly

[@asadpuppy1259]

There was one top ten on discovery on the subject of tanks. number one was the t 34

[@benharder7816]

My Great Uncle fought in the Pacific during WWII and he was able to bring home a Nambu pistol. Other cool facts about him was that he fought in New Guinea and the Philippines. One of his friends died, so he inherited his pet monkey which stayed in his pocket during combat. And he was in a landing ship that surrounded the Missouri during the signing of the Japanese Surrender in the instance that they tried to pull something and they would have to hit the beach.

[@theShermanator]

Ben Harder Thanks for your comment Ben, interesting to see that my subscribers and viewers have such an interesting background

[@DucePartybot]

The Shermanator My grandfather was in a Dutch machinegun squad fighting in the Netherlands, don't know much about it because he never wanted to talk about it. But I though it was pretty cool

[@gregorylumban-gaol3889]

Not WW2 related (kind of) my grandfather was a Major fighting for Indonesian rebels against the Dutch and British. Still have his uniform in great condition. His sword, pistol, and rifle I have no idea where they are. Not even my grandmother knows what he did with them. He passed away so he took that secret to his grave.

[@Normacly]

Chairman Meow Hmm, the Japanese did trained the Indonesian after capturing the islands. The Indonesian pretended to support the Japanese in return for equipments, military training, and administration training. The Dutch return to Indonesia after the war with the help of the British and French. Oddly enough, the US refused to support the Dutch and eventually pressure them to abandon their attempt to recolonize Indonesia. It was one of the few moments that the US supported independence movements against their European allies. One of the reasons why Indonesia is usually on good terms with the US.

[@gregorylumban-gaol3889]

***** Well Indonesia is in good terms with everyone right now....except for Australia. Joko Widodo, not the president Indonesia needs right now, but at least he was better than Prabowo. Tony Abbott, loves to piss off Indonesia. Also, not the Prime Minister Australia needs right now. As for my grandfather, he was trained by both the Dutch and the Japanese. Fortunately the Japanese did not know that and many of the Indonesians they trained were already trained by the Dutch. As a result, the Indonesians were familiar with both Dutch and Japanese tactics.

[@morum67]

in the last years of the war Japanese weapons declined in quality becuase they were rushing manufacturing and losing resources and the Japanese would often sabotage their weapons when they thought they would be captured which led largely to the impression that their weapons were unreliable

[@idiesol5609]

The sad part of the japanese tank forces in real life is that they didnt deployed later designs such as chi nu and chi to in the battlefield and sticked to tanks such as ha go,chi ha and chi he which were inferior to most allied tanks.

[@SirSmiffles]

You should have 300mm rocketed all of the vehicles at the end of the video :D

[@StrategyMasterPL]

this circular thing is a dust cover for rifle bolt

[@richyhu2042]

The Shermanator You should get the Ratte mod and see if the Japanese 300mm rocket do anything against it. I've seen other videos of people doing the same thing with tanks and other artillery doing jackshit against it and the only way to for them to kill it is either Nuke or Kamikaze plane. Would be an interesting video don't you think? :3

[@theShermanator]

Richy Hu ooor get another Ratte ;)

[@1975admin]

the m4 of the japanese is a model of the m1 garand because the japanese like their gun and the gun is actualy good so thei work in the gun

[@charlescook3195]

Sherman rear turret mg is only justified in big Russian heavies seeing how they have poor turret rotation and protects the rear so the turret doesn't have to do a 180 to kill flanking infantry

[@joshuakline6875]

The type 14 is one of general hide ki to Jo grands he was the prime minister at the time

[@kecikpreman2483]

Sherman,may i ask for your help please? i have GSM mod XII for Men of War: Assault Squad 2but the faction of japan always get error when i set the years to 1944 and 1945. the reason is because the heavy tank named O-I lost his def file or maybe the def file is error "heavy tank/O-i/O-i.def"

[@preythegod9166]

[@danielxiong8592]

[@suruaku6653]

Japanese guns aren't the only ones with those "circular things". Also the Finnish Suomi KP M/31 and in PPD-40 had those. And in GSM no factions have smg's on the worst units. (Conscripts) But the volkssturm in 1944 nor 1945 have Panzerfausts and *_may_* have PPSh's if i remember correctly. (I could be totally wrong)

[@theShermanator]

fdkiller I guess you are right

[@MrTerriblecole]

I suspect the guns on the tanks behind the turret etc were for fending off enemy troops trying to anti tank it. Also maybe incase the enemy would climb on the tank they need a way to defend from behind so spray and pray. haha

[@JTelli786]

Hey Sherman the Type 4 rifle was pretty much inspired by the M1 Garand. but it had a capacity of 10 rounds instead of 8 and if im not mistaken it was a slightly smaller cartage. It was produced very late in the war and only around 200-300 were made and none were issued to the front before the war ended. Here is a photo, there are many small details that differ from the Garand but its not hard to see that it was the Garand that inspired it: vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/battlefield/images/7/7b/Type_5_Rifle_IRL_Photo.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20141229033213

[@RichardVarnegan]

Exactly!!! I am surprised other people heard about the Type 4 Japanese rifle. Also, Japanese guns have very low recoil, thus increasing accuracy, so their guns are not bad at all.

[@JTelli786]

Matthew Arthur They used less powerful cartridges though.

[@oneidacastle1165]

they used those rear machine guns for it any infantry was behind it

[@gavinweber9091]

The rear turret mg is so infantry Have a hard time getting behind it

[@iexcaliber2]

Sherman, the F-22 Raptor IS the best fighter in the world

[@MrJohanBD]

I think the documentary about Japanese weapons must have been talking about the later years of the wars. The Standard rifle Type 38 & Type 99 are known as some of the most sturdy and reliable Bolt action rifles of the war. However as Japans home industry got bombed out of existences. the Quality of weapons produced declined dramatically Since they were know literally being built by school children as well as in everyday civilians back yards

[@ryansharpe3564]

All lot of those documentaries on History, discovery, and other channels that air them are British. At least the ones I have seen. And it is not "propaganda" when we in fact have the best planes, rifles, and tanks

[@RichardVarnegan]

The Type 4 was a copy of the grand, but had 10 instead of 8 rounds and did'nt have the M1's Characteristic 'ping' noise. Only 100 or so were made, and most are in meuseums. Also THey take the 7.7mm round, not the 30-06!!!

[@theShermanator]

The ping noice is a design flaw though imho

Actually Japanese guns weren't that bad... They pretty much failed with submachine guns but the Type 99 rifle was a very successful one. But it was little use to have a good quality bolt-action rifle when the enemy is mainly armed with semi-automatic rifles.

[@LimSubini]

Quod Perierat I can't really find reliable source, but most of unreliable sources I read said that Japanese rifles before the World War 2 were made by few selected artisans. However, as the battle in Asia raged, Japan needed more rifles, so they put unskilled laborers to make a rifle. Many rifles differed in their performances depending on the skill of the laborer.
