Product Description
From the start of production in 1938 until the end of the war, the Type 97 Medium Tank [Chi-Ha] was the core tank of the Japanese tank forces.
It was equipped with a 57mm tank gun suitable for infantry support and had an air-cooled diesel engine that made it easy to operate even in cold climates.
More than an hour before the attack on Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, which marked the beginning of the war against the United States and Great Britain, the army landed in the northern part of the Malay Peninsula.
They traversed 1,100 km in just 55 days, engaging in battles with British forces defending various locations on the Malay Peninsula.
This [Chi-Ha] tank car was at the forefront of the rapid advance towards the strategically important city of Singapore.
The kit reproduces the most common type of the Chi-Ha tank, which is based on the early or standard chassis and equipped with a 57mm tank gun.
The tracks are made of plastic and require only a few parts for assembly.
Furthermore, the cargo loaded on the rear of the vehicle, often seen in wartime photographs, will be reproduced using newly molded parts.
