Type 95 Ha-Go Japanese Light Tank

Designed in 1935 and developed by Misubishi Heavy Industries, the Type 95 Ha-Go was a 7.4 tonne light tank with a crew of 3. Most Ha-Go were armed with a 37mm Type 98 gun which fired both armour piercing and high explosive. The Ha-Go proved effective against infantry and other light tanks such as the Vickers, Pz Kpfw I and CV33 used by the Chinese National Revolutionary Army but was inadequate against heavier tanks, such as the Matilda and the Sherman.
