The Chi Ri Kai is what would begrabbing historically existing features and components and bringing themtogether. The most important part is the gun. I see no choice but for the 105to be used.

　　Chi Ri Kai是將歷史上存在的部件組合起來的產(chǎn)物。最重要的部分是火炮。除開105mm炮外，作者還沒有找到其它合適的備選。

　　Ho Ri 105 long cannon

　　Ho Ri 105mm長管加農(nóng)炮

　　According to the Japanese wiki article that has this gun picture, this 105 hasthe single tray loader attach to it. By looking carefully, it can be seen. Ifthis single tray loader was removed, it seems like the cannon can be mountedinto the Chi Ri plan 2 big turret. That would give the Chi Ri Kai a big alphaand a high pen but with a slow reload. The 105 would be the top gun and the75mm belt fed would be stock with the 88 available in the modules. This 105would also be used, likely as the top gun, for the Tier 8 Ho Ri TD, but withthe single tray reload attached. The pen, alpha, and accuracy, would stilllargely be of tier 8 or tier 9 TD gun quality on this tier 8 medium tank.

　　這張圖片出自日文維基，仔細(xì)看不難發(fā)現(xiàn)出該炮裝備的托彈機。如果這個托彈機被移除，該炮就可以裝進ChiRi 計劃2的大炮塔中。這門炮將賦予Chi Ri Kai較高的單發(fā)與穿深，但是相對較慢的裝填速度。105炮可以作為頂級炮，而75彈鏈供彈式彈夾炮作為白版配置，88炮作為過渡裝備。105炮也可以作為8級Ho Ri坦克殲擊車的頂級炮(帶托彈機)。在這輛坦克上，105炮的穿深、單發(fā)和精度應(yīng)該保持在8或9級TD炮的水平上。

　　The hull would bebased on the Ho Ri sloped TD.

　　車體將會基于Ho Ri傾斜裝甲坦克殲擊車

　　Technically speaking,this sloped hull was based off the Chi Ri hull anyway. It*s just a matter oftaking this design and giving it back to the Chi Ri for the Chi Ri Kai. If youlook closely, the picture identifies where the transmission, engine,ammunition, and the fuel tank would be located. Just like how these componentswere switched around in the Ho Ri 2 (e.g. the engine is in the rear in the HoRi 2), these components can be switched around to fit the large Chi Ri turretin the middle. As of now, I don*t know what the armor would be of the frontslope. But even by maintaining the 75 thickness, this very sharp slope ofperhaps as much as 70 degrees would make for strong frontal armor.

　　從技術(shù)層面上說，帶傾斜裝甲的車體是基于ChiRi的，上面提到的TD項目這僅僅是從Chi Ri那借鑒了車體而現(xiàn)在又“歸還”給ChiRi Kai方案。如果仔細(xì)看圖的話，不難法線傳動系統(tǒng)，引擎，彈藥以及油箱的位置。正如在HoRi 2方案中上述艙室可以交換位置一樣(HoRi 2的引擎位于車體后部)，它們在ChiRi Kai方案中也可以改變位置以適應(yīng)置于車體中部的ChiRi大型炮塔，目前還不知道傾斜的前甲厚度如何，但是即使是75mm，法線70度傾斜的大傾角也能為該坦克提供可靠的正面防護。

　　For suspension, one ofthe various suspensions examined for the Chi Ri can be used. The MitsubishiHeavy Industries Torsion bar plan gives the most modern feel.

　　至于懸掛，可以選用Chi Ri計劃中設(shè)想的多種懸掛系統(tǒng)之一。三菱重工的扭桿懸掛設(shè)計最具現(xiàn)代感。

　　So these 6 road-wheelswith Torsion bars instead of the springs portrayed in this picture.

　　上圖可見用帶扭桿的6對負(fù)重輪取代了傳統(tǒng)的彈簧懸掛系統(tǒng)

　　The Chidori suspension system is also a nice option.

　　千鳥(Chidori)懸掛也是一個不錯的候選

　　The resulting tankcould look something like this example: The Sloped Chi Ri hull, a 105mm cannon,and the MHI torsion bars suspension.

　　最終的坦克的外觀可能如下圖所示：傾斜的Chi Ri車體，105mm炮，三菱重工(MHI)的扭桿懸掛系統(tǒng)

　　And finally, all of theadvance features from the Type 5 Chi Ri will carry over, such as the widetreads, the turret basket, gyro-stabilizer, long range observation, theelectric motor that rotates the turret, and so on.

　　最終，該坦克將會繼承5式Chi Ri一切先進的特征。比如說寬型輪轂，炮塔吊籃，陀螺穩(wěn)定器，遠距觀瞄設(shè)備，驅(qū)動炮塔轉(zhuǎn)動的電機，等等。

　　The engine would still be based on thesame Chi Ri engine, the H9II. After loading on the 105, the Chi Ri Kai*s weightmay go up to 38 or 39 tons. The series in HP can go like 550, 675, 720, 800.However the 800 may not be needed, perhaps for the tier 9 TD. The Chi Ri Kai at39 tons will get 18.4 hp/ton with the 720.

　　引擎可能仍然采用和Chi Ri上一樣的型號：H9II。在裝上105炮后，Chi Ri Kai的重量可能增加到38或39噸。這個系列的引擎功率從550，675，720，800馬力不等。但是可能用不上800馬力引擎，它可以被用于9級TD。安裝720馬力引擎時ChiRi Kai(39噸)推重比可以達到18.4。

　　With that said, the Plan 2 Chi Riturret would be quite under armored for tier 8. So then maybe an improvedarmored plan 2 turret could be used as the upgrade turret. Put on an additional25mm from those add on plates to make 100 front or go with 125 to match thefront thickness in the Ho Ri, whichever seems most appealing I suppose. Add onanother ton in weight and make that 720 engine a 725 engine instead.

　　不過話說回來，Chi Ri計劃2的炮塔對于8級而言防護力嚴(yán)重不足。所以可能將裝甲升級型的計劃2炮塔作為頂級炮塔---在原版100mm的炮塔上加裝25mm厚的裝甲板，使其正面厚度(125mm)能夠與Ho Ri的相比，這看起來是最合理的。由此增加的1噸重量造成機動上的損失可以將720馬力引擎換成725馬力的解決。

　　Aside from the optional upgrade plan 2turret, everything here are real components creating a realistically feasibletank for tier 8.

　　除開虛構(gòu)的升級型計劃2炮塔，其它一切部件都是真實存在的，可以創(chuàng)造出一部切實可行的8級MT。
