The Type 2A is the continued evolution of the Type2 MBT. It addresses some issues I had with the original Type 2 while adding an improved main gun, armor, defensive counter measures, and cosmetic issues.
Gameplay has been enhanced by the addition of 4 ready to fire MSTAM missiles for destroying convoys etc...

AG1,2,3,4,: (Fire MSTAM ATGM) AG5: (Illuminate laser) AG7: (Lights)

    Nice! I must point out that the ERA we supplied is called Aegis G3. Archangel VII is the composite armor system (unless I forgot I supplied that) other than that it's very well done and thoroughly written!
