The Empire has swifter infantry than the Soviets and more mobile vehicles than the allies. The Empires air force do not need to reload at an airfield and to form air units transform the Mecha Tengu, Chopper VX and the Sea Wing to use aircraft.
 
The Empire is matchless at the Sea with their Battleships and their Naginata Cruisers.
 
The Empires units have weakness to however because most of their aircraft had to be built in large numbers to swarm their enemies because their aircraft has light armor and inferior firepower.

The Empire of the Rising Sun's infantry are about average - more powerful but less versatile compared to their mechanized units. For example: '''Tankbusters''' - they can bust tanks, but they cannot bust aircraft, as the name implies.

The main scout unit for the Empire, which can hover over the battlefield and detect disguised and hidden enemies. The Burst Drone can attach itself on enemy vehicles, slowing their movement. Their special ability is to activate a self-destruct timer that deals minor damage in a small radius.


These nasty drones are useful slowing down enemy aircraft and are good detectors. They are air units, and so are more effective at scouting than War Bears and Attack Dogs; however, they lack any useful attack.

Standard, fanatical, rifle-wielding Imperial infantry that are effective against other infantry units. Their special ability is to switch to melee using special katanas that can kill enemy infantry in one-slash, while granting increased movement. They can run into enemy garrisons, knocking infantry out.


These infantry are stronger but more expensive than Conscripts, and weaker but cheaper than Peacekeepers. Their Beam Katanas cannot break tanks and a Commando like Tanya will make mince meat out of these fanatical Samurai like Warriors.

Tankbuster lasers are effective against structures and enemy vehicles. Although they are unable to hit air unlike their Allied and Soviet counterparts, they make up for it with increased range and damage. Their special ability is to burrow in the ground, dramatically increasing their defense even against anti-infantry fire.

Tankbusters live up their name - they bust tanks. Unlike Javelins and Flak Troopers these troopers cannot attack aircraft and are not effective against infantry so support them with anti-infantry units. Their special ability is hard to use.
They are good for rushing, but Soviet sentry guns are strong against them. If you face sentries, get a Yuriko Omega or an air support co-commander.

The Empire Engineer can capture neutral or enemy structures, as well as repair your own. Their special ability is to sprint, granting them increased movement speed for 10 seconds, although they are exhausted and are unable to move for 5 seconds thereafter.  However, if they reach a neutral building before the speed is lost, they will forgo the 5 second wait time and immediately capture the building as normal.


These units are unarmed and defenseless against most kinds of threats, especially anti-infantry fire.

Shinobi are like defended Spies without disguising and bribing ability.  Although relatively short-ranged, they make their first shot quickly and can form lethal anti-infantry squads that can take down large numbers of foes, given at a large expense.  Due to their inability to use any form of stealth, they are not as effective at sabotage as the Spy, and must rely on more brute-force methods to enter the enemy base.

They are the only flying infantry in RA3 besides the Burst Drone.


These women warriors fill the weakness of Tankbusters: anti-air firing. Rocket Angels Rockets do not fair well against infantry, although are quite powerful against all other targets.  Like all aircraft, these woman warriors are vulnerable to anti-air units.

Yuriko Omega is the Empire of the Rising Sun's commando unit, able to destroy almost everything with her mind. She can crush enemy vehicles while spinning them in the air, or pull down enemy aircraft from the sky. Her attacks do not deal solid damage, she takes the same time destroying a Construction Yard as with a Flak Cannon. Her special ability is a Psychic Scream that kills all infantry units, Terror Drones and Dolphins in a large radius around her.

Her Psychic Scream does not harm metal things like tanks and she is not effective fighting against 5 Riptide ACVs. She is vulnerable to Tesla coils and she does not kill things in one hit unlike Natasha. If she falls in battle the Advisor will not warn about her death so take good care of your Psionic Commando.

The Mecha Tengu is an amphibious anti-infantry unit. They can transform into the Jet Tengu, which is a fast anti-air aircraft.


'''Weaknesses'''
The advantage of Jet Tengus over MiGs and Apollos is that Jet Tengus don't require an Airbase to restock their autocannon ammo, though Jet Tengu does less damage than MiGs or Apollos. Mecha/Jet Tengu has poor armor so it's easily annihilated by tanks or anti-air ground units.
{{-}}


It is not effective fighting the Guardian Tanks nor Assault Destroyers and it cannot hit aircraft in Mecha Mode and in Jet mode it is weaker than MiGs and Apollo Fighters. In Jet Mode it cannot attack Tanks and its transforming features must recharge after use.
Jet Tengus are powerful in numbers, despite having weak armor and can be supported with the Point Defense Drones protocol. They're cheaper than Apollo and MiG fighters. They only cost about 800 yen.

This expensive tanks special ability will not stop Tier 3 units from crushing it and it is ineffective against naval units like Akula Subs. Support this with the Striker VX and Jet Tengu to fend off Vindicators.
Tsunamis are weaker than Guardians or Hammers, but faster and amphibious. Nanodeflectors also increase speed a bit and prevent Terror Drones to get inside the tank. Tsunamis are destroyed by anti-tank or aircraft units

On the ground, Striker VX are anti-air mobile walkers. They can transform into the Chopper VX, which is an anti-armor aircraft unit.


It has light armor and it is ineffective fighting flak troopers and its anti air rockets are weak.
Advanced Rocket Launchers upgrade powers up this unit. Striker VX isn't as good as Jet Tengu but does his job. Chopper VXs are good in defense but bit too slow in attacks. Choppers do poor damage to infantry, so a bunch of Flak Troopers is end of the Chopper VX. It must be supported by the Skywing to kill infantry using the Empire air units against the ground forces, while Jet Tengus in great numbers can prevent all Apollos or MiG fighters from destroying all your air units.

Long range bombardment units that can destroy enemy bases from afar. Their main form of attack is to charge up their Wave Force Cannons, which then shoot in a line, severely damaging anything caught in its line. Their special ability is to prematurely discharge their Cannons, dealing less damage although still lethal to infantry and light vehicles.

'''Weaknesses'''
At 1600 credits, the wave-force mobile artillery units beats the Soviet V4 and the Allied Athena long range competitors in terms of accuracy, but the size and speed drawbacks that comes with makes it a perfect target for air attacks or fast attack units. Be sure they are heavily guarded at all times.
 
These artillery are perhaps the best and most accurate artillery in Red Alert 3 but at what cost? It costs 1600 dollars, it is slow and it has a long rate of fire so it is not suited for aircraft nor faster vehicles.

'''Weaknesses'''
;Weaknesses
 
The Apocalypse Tank (of equal cost) can paralyze the King Oni with its magnetic harpoon, meaning that King Oni are only adequate, at best, in a late-game armor battle against the Soviets. Additionally, the King Oni is largely ineffective against infantry, unless using the bull rush.
Their weakness is they cost 2000 like Apocalypse Tanks and they don't have defense weapons against aircraft. Also their lasers suck against infantry like Tanya herself and their special ability takes a while to recharge.

A tri-boddied walker wielding 3 giant beam katanas that can destroy any units with one hit or crush. The walker's special ability is to plunge all 3 of its katanas into the ground that makes destructive shockwaves that kill all in one hit. In addition, the unit feeds off of Tesla energy; thus, attacks by Tesla Coils, Tesla Troopers and Stingrays do nothing but regenerate the Executioner's health.
 
This unit is an Empire of the Rising Sun campaign exclusive unit so you won't see this walker in Skirmish, the Allied and Soviet Campaigns or Multiplayer.


The walkers special ability is to plunge all 3 of its katanas into the ground that makes destructive shockwaves that kill all in one hit.
;Weaknesses
The Shogun Executioner cannot attack aircraft except ramming into them. It also causes friendly fire when ramming into enemy units. its special ability takes way to long to recharge. And finally, the player loses the mission if the unit is destroyed.

The Imperial Navy is fast, versatile, balanced, powerful but expensive. There's a defensive hole in Imperial Navy - aircraft. Sea-Wing is Empire's only anti-air naval unit and it's easy to blow up, but watch out for Jet Tengus they may be weak in armor. But they are very cheap compared to allies and soviets counterpart and powerful in numbers of group and never runs out of ammo.

{{Quote|We're taking you with us!|Yari Minisub}}


These subs are not effective against tanks and fast Terror Drones and must surface to fire and are vulnerable to torpedos and assault destroyers once submerged. Aircraft are probably your best solution against these subs because these things will not Kamikaze into flying targets.
Yari Mini-Subs are fast moving submersibles that are able to deal heavy damage in masses. Their special ability is to kamikaze into a naval target and severely damage it. They are strong in numbers, but watch out for Stingray's special ability of releasing an electrical shock wave that is dangerous to the mini sub's weak armor.


;Weaknesses
Yaris are the naval scouts of the Imperial Navy and should only stick to that role. The notable kamikaze attack can also be nullified by torpedoes, or any form of naval weapons.
