Introduction

日本海軍が開発した水陸両用戦闘車両「特四式内火艇」、その改良型です。
問題の空冷ディーゼルエンジンを換装、無限軌道及び水上航行機動性も向上、主兵装の魚雷の他に対艦対空用に噴進砲及び装填用次弾などを搭載。
艦そして部隊間の通信機能も強化した特四式改、カツ改で幻の「竜巻作戦」を！
暁の敵環礁泊地に、第六艦隊の凱歌を！

This is an improved version of the "Special Type 4 Amphibious Tank" amphibious combat vehicle, developed by the Japanese Navy.
The problematic air-cooled diesel engine has been replaced, tracks and water navigation mobility have been improved, and in addition to the main armament, torpedoes, it is equipped with rockets for anti-ship and anti-aircraft use, as well as ammunitions for reloading.
Enhanced with improved communication capabilities between ships and units, the Special Type 4 Kai will carry out the surprise attack "Operation Tasumaki"!
Let the Sixth Fleet's victory song echo in the enemy's atoll anchorage at dawn!

Mechanics

Special Type 4 Amphibious Tank Kai is an Amphibious Vehicle Amphibious Vehicle:

  • It deals adequate damage against installations, being a good component for "nukes" (see Anti-Installation).
  • It also allows Submarines to participate in the shelling phase against Installations, by launching the tank in battle.
  • It has an extra bonus against PT boats.
Ka-Tsu Animation

Uniquely on "Atoll Nodes", it is possible to deploy the Amphibious Vehicle Ka-Tsu tanksSpecial Type 4 Amphibious Tank
Special Type 4 Amphibious Tank Kai to trigger a special Opening Torpedo Salvo.

  • On those nodes, regular oTorp will not work,
  • This can only be deployed by SS, SSV, and the AV Mikuma Kai Ni Toku, Nisshin A, and Mizuho Kai fast,
    • They must carry at least one Ka-Tsu tank,
  • On the "atoll node", ships meeting those requirements will carry out a special opening torpedo attack,
  • In night battle, those ships will additionally trigger the same attack as a cutin,
    • This attack overrides regular Night Cut-ins attacks (e.g. if a ship is setuped for a TCI, it will still trigger the Ka-Tsu attack).
  • Using several Ka-Tsu tanks on a same ship will make it carry out several of those attacks in a row (day and night),
    • It capped at 2 attacks per ship at night.
    • This attack utilizes a new special animation, with the tank climbing the atoll's soil.

Can be equipped in the RE of I-36, I-41, I-47 Kai, and I-58 Kai.

Notes
