One features the Chi-To's turret mated to a Chi-Nu chassis, testing reports at Irago Firing Grounds on March 19th, 1945 show chassis No. 83 was used and the tank was reported to preform well. This is commonly known as Chi-Nu Kai.
      As for what we know as the Chi-Nu II sources indicate a similar claim of a standard Chi-Nu fitted with the Type 5 75mm. But no further details exist on this type.

      That was essentially the problem with Japanese armored doctrine and design until the mid war, when Shermans and Lees started appearing regularly. They'd only ever faced enemies without any armor or anti armor weaponry, and so there had never been a reason to modernize

    The Japanese 47mm firing AP was quite capable at knocking out Shermans frontally even at 700m. The problem with the 47mm was there were never enough of them and the AP was even rarer. The APHE was much more common. The APHE round could not penetrate Sherman frontally but could penetrate the sides at up to 1000m.

    It's not that the tank was bad, it's just that, by the time this tank was brought forward, Japan had already lost the war. With all their ships being slaughtered everywhere on the front, the manufacture, logistics and field support for this tank was all just a fantasy. Even if they had magically produced them in hundreds, they would only have ended up being sent flying by all the bombers out there.

      If by M3 you mean the M3 Lee, agreed. I’ve always thought it was a misunderstood and under appreciated tank considering it was only meant as a stopgap before the M4 but actually ended up bringing a 75 mm gun, 75 mm HE, armor, and reliability all of which were appreciated upon its debut (and until replacement by the Sherman). Not every axis tank and AT gun at that point was an 88 or long 75.

    I really love your videos, especially about very special designs like the baby tank! But just a question/ suggestion: in your intro you're saying "all designed to kill" - well, what about great support tanks?! I had a look at your video list but didn't found any videos about them. Would it be interesting to make a video about them? Most armies depend on them (e. g. as normal recovery vehicles are not powerful enough to help tanks), and there are some interesting vehicles. Some examples from Germany: Dachs and Kodiak (engineer), Leguan (bridge layer), Keiler (mine sweeper), Büffel (recovery) and the ambulance variant of the small Wiesel tank. I know it doesn't quite fit into your normal repertoire, but it would be a nice addition, I think :)
