Moreover, you can specialize the Type 11, to get more control and accuracy than with the type 97.
If I had to choose between the type 11 and the type 97, I’d choose the type 11 because I feel it’s more stable when firing. It would serve throughout WW2 and even appear in the Vietnam war by Vietnamese forces. These problems would be addressed by the type 96 machine gun.Īlso, the type 11 machine gun (named after the 11th year of the reign of Emperor Taisho or in 1922) was the first light machine gun to be mass-produced by a modernized Japan.

Moreover, reloading would be a problem during mass infantry charges because of how you needed to place 6 clips into the hopper to get the full effect of a machine gun. Unfortunately, this design would backfire when the hopper allowed dirt and grim into the weapon which would lead to jams and malfunctions.
It’s kinda cool because the Japanese wouldn’t have to manufacture new magazines, instead, they need more regular ammo clips from their standard rifle at the time, the type 38. Noticeably, the magazine was not a simple detachable magazine but a hopper for clips of the normal 6.5×50mmSR Arisaka ammo. So, they based their new machine gun off of the french Hotchkiss M1909 Benét–Mercié machine gun with some differences. I’m sure there are better pistols to use in game however, use this weapon if you wanna be historically accurate.Īfter witnessing the power of machine guns during WW1 through Japanese military attaches, the Japanese realized how powerful machine guns were in squad tactics. While playing BF5, I rarely pull out my pistol. The design was inferior to the Type 14 pistol but the weapon would still be issued to the military personnel. However, it was favored by tank crews and paratroopers who like how lightweight and small the pistol was. Criticized for its awkward and complex disassembly and misfires due to a design flaw that allowed the gun to go off unintentionally, the Type 14 was not known for its reliability. Since the Nambu 8-mm pistol (type 14) is not present in BF5, the second-best historically accurate pistol is the type 94.ĭesigned by Kijiro Nambu, the pistol would enter Japanese military service in 1934 and service until 1945. Overall, I highly recommend using it while playing conquest or breakout. I was very surprised by the control of this weapon, especially when you get the stability bonus from your bipod. The type 100 is a 720 RPM SMG (same RMP as the Thompson) which felt good in-game. After the war, this SMG would be used in small numbers by surrounding Asian countries. Germany also produced similar “last-ditch” weapons such as the Volssturgewehr (The Peoples Rifle). These last batches before the end of WW2 were are called “last-ditch” weapons. However, due to a lack of materials, the newly made type 100 SMGs were of very poor quality. From 1942-44, small batches of 1,000 were ordered until the weapon went into mass production in 1944. Designed in 1938 and adopted by the Japanese military in 1940, the Type 100 SMG was the most produced Japanese SMG during WW2.
