Request for a simple, quick Pz38t Japanese Tank Skin for Pacific / Papua New Guinea 42/43

[kraut1]

Hi All,

I would like to optimize the "Japanese Tanks" in my EMG Papua New Guinea Mod.

https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/83844-papua-new-guinea-4244-for-easy-mission-generator-update-21042024/

-I know, in reality there were only 1 or 2 tanks near Milne Bay, but but at least in theory there could have been some more between Buna / Wairopi and Oivi for defence / counter attacks (in my P39 campaign the Australian counter attack will start soon).

-Currently, because of the color, I have the light russian tanks T70 and BT-7 there. But there shape does not look very "japanese".

-From my point of view the Pz38t is of all IL2: GB tanks most similar to the japanese ones.

-the armament is similar to japanese tanks.

-and in ai tank - ai tank combat vs Sherman M4 in a mission it would be inferior (realistic).

-the P39 pilot of my campaign could fly 1 or 2 interesting anti tank missions with the 37mm ap loadout.

(not more of course, because there was in first line infantry vs infantry action with limited artillery support)

I found the pictures below in the net.

I don`t want to create too much work for you!

So the skin has not to be exactly as shown in the pictures.

Just a colorful light brown / brown / green skin with maybe some small japanese insignias.

Many Thanks in Advance!

My first selfmade preliminary solution:

From @MajorMagee 's great "Additional AI Vehicle Possibilties" the Pz38t Hinterhalt-Tarnung skin by @DetCord12B, and some japanese flags by me.

Will appear in 1 or 2 of my campaign missions.
