General information

The Type 94 is an anti-air truck fitting a Type 98 (20 mm) on a Type 94 truck. This was done as a measure to get the easiest solution of motorizing anti-air to provide air cover for tank and infantry units alike, without having to develop a whole new vehicle for it. Having the gun already deployed on the back of the truck increases the response time of the vehicle rather than having the gun towed behind it. The wheels of the gun mount are mounted on the back of the cab in case it has to be dismounted from the truck.

It was introduced in Update 1.65 "Way of the Samurai" along with the initial Japanese Ground Forces tree. As with any truck AA, this vehicle is fragile and should not be taken near the frontline, even though it is potent as a frontline automatic anti-tank gun. As a truck chassis, with only 3 crew members, this vehicle has no survivability. Overall, the Type 94 is a gun platform. With 20 bullets, 45 mm of max penetration, a good traverse speed, and reload rate, this gun will shred planes and light targets alike. Plus, the same gun is mounted on the two next Japanese SPAAs, offering a good introduction to this main weapon.
