The E-75 Heavy Mech Type G is a first-generation heavy combat mech, developed in 1943 as an experimental alternative to conventional armored vehicles. As one of the earliest mechanized war machines, it was designed to integrate traditional tank components with bipedal mobility, creating a new class of battlefield units. The Type G represents the final standardized iteration of the series, featuring improved turret protection and a more ballistic-resistant design.
The Type G was part of a broader heavy mech development program, initiated to create an assault unit capable of overcoming battlefield obstacles that traditional tanks could not. Since mech technology was still in its infancy, the design heavily relied on existing tank components, such as its engine, armor plating, and primary weapons. The bipedal hydraulic system was introduced to enhance mobility in urban warfare and rough terrain, though it required extensive mechanical upkeep.
The Type G featured a 128mm high-velocity cannon, an evolution of battle-proven tank destroyer guns, allowing it to engage heavy armor and fortified positions. For defensive firepower, it was equipped with dual 30mm autocannons, mounted on the torso to counter enemy infantry and light vehicles.
One of the key refinements of the Type G was its revised turret design, which incorporated a more ballistic-resistant shape, reducing weak points and improving crew survivability. This made it the most durable version of the E-75 series, balancing firepower, protection, and battlefield adaptability.
The E-75 Heavy Mech series saw its first combat deployment in 1943, achieving immediate battlefield success. In its debut engagement, a single unit recorded 10 confirmed kills, effectively neutralizing enemy tanks and defensive positions while withstanding significant counterfire.
The mech’s high-caliber weaponry and superior mobility over rough terrain allowed it to dominate traditional armored formations, proving the viability of bipedal combat vehicles. Following its battlefield success, the production of E-75 units increased rapidly, leading to the manufacture of over 2,000 units throughout the war.
The Type G emerged as the final and most refined variant, incorporating improved turret armor and a streamlined production process, making it the most widely deployed version of the series.
Designed for frontline assaults and defensive operations, the E-75 Heavy Mech Type G was often deployed as a breakthrough unit, capable of leading offensives and holding key strategic positions. Compared to traditional tanks, its bipedal design allowed it to:
Its heavy frontal armor enabled it to withstand anti-tank fire, while its modular turret configuration allowed for battlefield-specific weapon loadouts. However, its mechanical complexity required specialized crews and maintenance teams, making logistics a challenge despite its effectiveness in combat.
The Type G is powered by a 1,200-horsepower engine, adapted from existing tank powerplants. This allows it to reach a top speed of 45 km/h, making it relatively mobile for its weight class. Its bipedal hydraulic system, though mechanically complex, provides better adaptability in urban and rugged environments, where traditional tanks would struggle.
Unlike later mechanized designs, the E-75 Heavy Mech Type G required a five-person crew, similar to conventional heavy tanks. The crew members include:
The armor protection is among the strongest of its time, featuring a 180mm-thick frontal plate and additional reactive armor layers, allowing it to endure direct hits from enemy anti-tank weaponry. The Type G variant introduced a redesigned turret shape, improving its ballistic resistance and reducing vulnerability to anti-mech fire.
