Vehicle description
Wargaming Tankopedia
In 1943, a delegation of Imperial Japanese Army representatives attended a demonstration of the German Pz.Kpfw. Tiger Ausf. E heavy tank in Kummersdorf near Berlin. The Tiger seriously impressed the military, and so they decided to create a similar vehicle for the Japanese Army. The design called for using many technological solutions from the German school of tank-building, and the vehicle could have turned out to be quite successful. However, by 1945, the situation in the country had become extremely difficult and building the tank was problematic. For that reason, the fate of the last Japanese heavy tank during wartime was sealed.
