Why this kit matters

The Type 97 Chi-Ha was a medium tank used by the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II. As one of the IJA's main tanks, it saw action in various campaigns throughout the Pacific. The Chi-Ha's design reflected Japan's early tank development and tactical doctrines.

This model kit allows you to recreate a significant piece of WWII Japanese armour. The Type 97 Chi-Ha's design and deployment provide insight into the challenges and strategies of the IJA during the war. Building this kit offers a hands-on understanding of the technological and tactical aspects of Japanese armoured warfare.

How to use it

This is a plastic model kit that requires assembly. Paint and glue are required for a detailed finish. Use modelling tools to carefully remove parts from the sprues and follow the instructions for assembly. Consider researching historical photos to accurately depict the weathering and markings on your model. Once assembled, display your Type 97 Chi-Ha as a tribute to Japanese engineering and military history.

This is a plastic model kit. Assembly, paint, and glue are required. It is not a toy.
