[Development] Type 74: The Height of Technology

The Type 74 is a Japanese main battle tank developed in 1973 to replace the outdated Type 61. Many advanced technical solutions of the time were used in this tank’s design, the most important of which will soon make a nice surprise for all tankers in War Thunder without exception. Meet the flagship Japanese Type 74 tank with active hydropneumatic suspension!

The new vehicle was intended to possess all the most modern solutions used in the designs of the best main battle tanks of the NATO countries of the era. For example, it borrowed the idea of active hydropneumatic suspension from the German/American MBT-70 project, allowing the tank’s clearance and lean angle to be changed automatically. The hull was meant to be the same as that of the German Leopard 1, and 105 mm L7 cannon widely used in NATO countries was purely British in origin. The new Japanese tank was also meant to be equipped with an advanced automated loading system for its main gun, along with a solid rotating command cupola. The final design of the new vehicle was confirmed in 1964, after which various test frames were built and tests performed in until 1967.

At the prototype development stage, it became clear that several novel solutions would have to be abandoned, since in practice they would be too expensive and unsuitable for mass production. After the construction in 1969 of the first two prototypes, designated STB-1, it became clear that the automated loading and remote control system for the anti-air 12.7 mm Browning machine gun would have to be sacrificed, so they were no longer present on the STB-3, built in 1971. The last prototype, the STB-6 built in 1973, became the final variant that received the definite designation Type 74 and was launched into series production in September 1975.
