Historical Notes
Most Manchukuo uniforms did not differ from IJA type 5 uniforms aside from hats, headwear emblems, and certain badges worn by higher ranks. Photographs show peaked caps were more common in the 1930s, while Type 92 helmets became more common later. Earlier blue uniforms and rifles not in 6.5mm Arisaka were phased out by 1939 but would have still been in use by second line troops. By 1942, rifles and machine guns in 7.7mm Arisaka were in use. The Asano Brigade was an elite sabotage unit made up of White Russian exiles and seems to have been equipped somewhat differently to the rest of the MIA, and can be more commonly seen wearing Japanese-style caps (albeit still with the Manchukuo star) in photos. Compared to other Japanese puppet governments, Manchukuo was relatively industrialised and well-supplied, and the MIA had access to Japanese light tanks, armored cars, planes, and indigenously produced rifles, machine guns, SMGs, and C-96 machine pistols. The main inaccuracy in this mod is the lack of the unique Japanese Type 44 carbine used by cavalrymen.
