[Machine Translation] (The Type 95 Light Tank [H] was the most produced of all Japanese tanks and played a central role in the Japanese Army's tank units. It was developed as a "mobile tank" that emphasized mobility in the early Showa period when the Army was mechanizing its units. It was equipped with a tank gun and powered by a 120 hp air-cooled diesel engine. It was highly reliable and durable, and was used in all theaters of war from 1935 to the end of the war. (What is the Hokuman type?) The Hokuman type, one of the modified types of the Type 95 light tank [H], was equipped with small auxiliary wheels between the lower wheels to prevent the wheels from getting stuck in the ridges of the field when driving across kaoliang fields in Manchuria (* generally in northeastern China), and was mainly used by units deployed in Manchuria. It was also deployed in the Nomonhan Incident and exchanged fire with Soviet troops. ( Kit Contents ) Caterpillar is a belt type which can be painted.
