The Type 95 Ha-Go was a Japanese WWII light tank. The first prototypes were built in 1933, and serial production continued in 1935-1943. In total, about 2,370 copies of this tank of all versions were built. The Type 95 was powered by an engine Mitsubishi NVD6 120 with 120 HP. The vehicle was armed with a single Type 94 or Type 97 37mm tank gun, 1 Type 91 6.5mm machine gun and 1 Type 97 7.7mm machine gun.

Tank The Type 95 Ha-Go was the result of lessons learned by the Japanese Army Command from operations in Manchuria and Outer Mongolia during 1931-1933, which clearly showed that tracked vehicles, especially light tanks, performed very well in the field hilly and upland - much better than cavalry or wheeled vehicles. This led to the development of a new Japanese light tank, the Type 95 Ha-Go. The new vehicle was characterized by high maneuverability, good armament for a car of this class, but also thin armor not exceeding 12 mm in thickness. Tanks of this type fought in China (1937-1945), in Chałchyn-Gol with the Red Army (1939) and during the Pacific War of 1941-1945, especially in the first - offensive phase of the conflict - in 1941-1942.
