The Type 91 Heavy is a Japanese tier 3 heavy tank.
Development of the Type 91, the three-turret 18-ton Japanese tank, started in 1927 and was completed in 1932. The vehicle never entered mass production. Only one prototype was built.
The Type 91 Heavy is the lowest tier Heavy tank in the game and also the earliest heavy tank in Japanese Heavy line. But, Do not let its "Heavy" class trick you - its "Heavy Armor" is extremely thin (Even some tier 1 tanks have better armor thickness than this tank!). It's also large and slow, which makes it very vulnerable to enemy fire. However, this tank offers derp gun that is powerful enough to one or two shot any tank in the same tier and a top gun which has monstrous penetration and DPM for its tier.
The Type 91 Heavy marks the end of its Japanese heavy line.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Stock gun's HE rounds offer more penetration than AP rounds, yet they deal enough damage to two-shot any tank in the same tier.
- Very powerful top gun, combining good damage, penetration and rate of fire
- Fairly small turret with good gun depression
- Tied with British Medium MK.III for second highest HP pools in Tier 3 (280)
- Very fast grinding; It doesn't need new treads to equip heavier equipment and only has one avaliable turret. You can just spam HE on enemy and get past this tank in no time.
Cons:
- Despite being classified as Heavy Tank, its armor is weaker than some of tier 1 LT. Even HE rounds from your own stock derp gun would penetrate for full damage.
- Hull surfaces are mostly flat so don't expect to bounce anything.
- Very slow and fairly large size
- Front machine gun turrets limit forward gun depression
- Top gun had fairly expensive research cost, and it does not mitigate to next tier. However, it was shared with another low-tier Japanese tanks and can be unlocked by them.
- Very weak ammo rack gets blown up often
Performance
The Type 91 should be thought of as a medium tank with a high hitpool and lower speed. The second gun is very good at taking out same and lower tier targets and in higher tier battles can even scratch tier 5's.
