Enjoy!Īfter the culmination of many tested core components, the STB-1 was completed in 1969.

Skins and camouflages for the STB-1 from everyone, today we have another article from Soukoudragon, (revised by Daigensui) this time about (sort of confirmed) Japanese tier 10 tank.

And, production started the following year in 1975 for the Type 74. The final judgement for the STT program was held in November 1973 which lead the line to be completed in 1974. In a bid to reduce costs STB-3, STB-4, STB-5 and STB-6 were produced between April 1970 to December 1971. Due to issues with cost effectiveness these two prototypes were not considered for the replacement of the Type 61. Created in September 1969 along with STB-2 in the STT program.

Engine can be vulnerable to some aircraft with powerful guns.

Other areas are lightly armoured, vulnerable to high penetrating SPAA.

Reload and top speed slower than Leopard.

Utilization of hydropneumatic suspension allows for various offensive and defensive options.

More armour than the German Leopard (around 100 mm hull and turret).

Highly mobile, comparable to the German Leopard I.

Two-plane stabilizer that allows it to fire on the move.

105 mm L7 cannon found on other NATO tanks.

But due to the low velocity of the HESH round it has to be fired at a stationary target at long range to effectively hit. With only 2 shells to choose from being APDS & HESH, APDS can be used for long-distance engagements and HESH can deal with light to medium armoured vehicles with overpressure damage, this can be done at a long range once the laser rangefinder has been unlocked as well. With the addition of a 12.7 mm machine gun, the STB-1 can make short work of ZSU's or light tanks alike if the heat of the battle doesn't allow for the main gun or in-case of more important targets requiring the main gun's firepower.

Do keep this fully in mind especially when taking more shells with the vehicle, as the fuel tank next to the driver will be filled with extra shells, which can blow up the whole tank if a shell does eventually penetrate. The STB-1 possesses a pretty nice angled upper front plate, but do keep in mind that the STB-1 wasn't designed to take a punch, only to deal a punch, so even with the good angle you shouldn't rely too heavily on it, as shells can penetrate it and won't always bounce off.

Together with the power of the engine outfitted on the STB-1, allows it to speedily move to a nice sniper spot or hull-down position and fire at targets before they realize a tank could be there. The STB-1 allows for both a more held down playstyle or aggressive playstyle versus the Leopard I due to its hydropneumatic suspension and two-plane stabilizer. The STB-1 can be compared to the Leopard I or even a stock Leopard A1A1, but has its own capabilities in its own right. The tank is quite fast and is further aided by the Hydropneumatic suspension, which allows this tank to manoeuvre the battlefield much like a Leopard, however the abundance of larger, more open maps at higher ranks means that getting from point A to B - and not getting shot - is not a simple as it sounds. It has thick frontal hull armour that can bounce shots effectively, but should not be relied on.

The STB-1 is unique in being one of the only Japanese tanks that can take a hit, like the Type 4 Chi-To Late and Ho-Ri Production. Do note that the L7 on this tank reloads significantly longer than other L7-equipped tanks. Using the tank's hydropneumatic suspension correctly can help with the tank's depression, and in some cases, aid in survivability. Instead, a cautious hit-and-run tactic like the Leopards should always be employed. Despite having considerable more armour than its comparable counterparts the Leopard 1 and AMX-30, as well as comparable mobility, it is not recommended as a front-line tank. The STB-1 is the second researchable tank in Japan's Ground Forces Rank V. The prototype of the Type 74, the STB-1 presents many features that would be in the final design.

It was introduced in Update 1.65 "Way of the Samurai" along with the initial Japanese Ground Forces tree. With a battle rating of 7.7 (AB) and 8.0 (RB/SB). The STB-1 is a rank V Japanese medium tank
