    The Japanese Ka-Chi is a somewhat rare event tank in War Thunder. It's special in that it has pontoons that turn it into a quasi boat. The pontoons give it a ton of extra survivability, and the cannon is quite potent.

    Speaking about the Japanese 47mm, for the longest time I've been saying how strong the Chi-Ha Kai is at 2.3. Insane gun, great reload, stabilized, 12 degrees of gun depression, meh armor, but good mobility.

      Or the BMP 2M getting equipment that it doesn't have after being moved from top tier.
      Modern Russian tanks getting far more than they should and being treated far better than most other tanks.
      Meanwhile the American tanks/vehicles being treated as inferior in general as they strip a lot of features from them.
      There's also the Swedish jets where they got rid of the tracers since the Swedish use a tracking radar to fire. Though guess what Gajim didn't give them that other nations have.

    The Ka-Chi's survivability comes down to the pontoons acting as spaced armour, as well as there is a pressurized tube inside the hull which houses the crew, which also acts as spaced armour. Then there's the sheer number of crew which can make this thing a menace to kill sometimes.

Then I remembered what shells low tier Sweden gets and realized I probably just accidentally 1-shotted these without knowing what they were.

    I think they should make the pontunes destructible, maybe not from AP or APHE, but give it a good couple of hits from HE or HEAT, especially the larger ones, and those things will only save you like once or twice before they vaporize

      I mean, It's 2.0, still has 50mm of frontal armor, a crew of 7, a fairly decent gun with a good reload and shoulder stabilizer. I think it would be fair if a couple AP or APHE rounds eventually blew the pontoons off with HE/HEAT taking fewer. Plus it's an event vehicle so it's probably going to be in the hands of decent players.
