For those of you who don't know, the new Jap heavy line will be coming in the upcoming update for World of Tanks. In the update you can expect a new heavy line that starts at Tier II with the I-Go/Chi-Ro. Now, for those history buffs out there you will notice that this name is familiar, that is because this japanese tank (more like a box with aluminum foil around it) was used throughout most of WWII. The next tank in this line is the Type 91 and then the Type 95. These two tanks are roughly the same, just with a few improvements from the 91 to the 95. Things start to get interesting when you get to tier V with the 0-I Experimental tank. This tank weighs roughly 100 tonnes packs a heavy punch with either the 75mm or the 105mm gun. Imagine that... A 105mm gun at Tier V. The Tier VI 0-I is the big daddy. It weighs 150 tonnes and packs a 15cm gun. It rivals tanks in higher tiers. As you go along the line you will notice that the tanks' guns only get bigger. By the time you get to the Tier X Type 5 you weigh once again 150 Tonnes and you pack a massive 140mm gun. You also get a 1200 hp engine which allow you to be relatively maneuverable on the battlefield. I hope I have you all excited about the upcoming heavy tanks with update 9.10 from Wargaming, because Idk about you all, but I'm going to have a hell of a time with this update. 

Hope to see you all on the Battlefield!

New tank pictures look great, #NiNFTW   #NiNGamers   #NiNWOT   #NiNWOTers  #NiNWOTSeals

Heck yea... I'm looking forward to them, from what I hear they're pretty tough . I'm more of a heavy tank player as it is so can't wait.

I've been grinding the Japanese heavies and am almost finished with the O-I at tier 6.  I have been enjoying them, they make great brawlers.  The high turret has been a real plus as I can often go hull down by shooting over an IS series tank.

The O-I tank looks like a "mini-maus", hard to kill at times.

Oi tank front armor is funny to use if you angle it you can bounce t8 heavy shells e25 shells if you angle if correctly and it's funny watching people rage when a Io bounce a t8 shell

right now they are very good, nice gun, nice frontal and rear armour lots of hitpoints  the big weakness about the tank is the REAR

XD i sold my IS just to start this japanease heavy line currently at type 95

JUST GOT THE O-I, awsome mobility weights 100tonnes, has weak armour however top calss gun for tier 5
