The Ha-Go Bulldozer has finished restoration! Revealed on August 17th, it’s first formal appearance was a supporter-only event in Gotemba City on August 24th.
The following photos come from its first public appearance alongside the standard Ha-Go at an expo in Shizuoka that happened just yesterday. The contrast between the grass and the yellow-blue paint combo is pretty cool.
It’s not just a work vehicle, but a vivid reminder of the reconstruction efforts in postwar Japan.

Speaking of pre-JGSDF tank usage in postwar Japan, I happen to have this photo, probably pretty rare considering what’s in it.
The caption, likely written by an American occupier, claims this to be a “reconverted tank”. In reality, this is a Type 98 Ro-Ke prime mover, quite the odd sight as late as April of 1947. It seems to be getting a tow from the truck here, but I wonder if it was the Japanese or Americans operating it?

Do Thai army use M901 ITV?

They still have it, but just not sure if they still using it
M901A3, TOW 2 and a more powerful engine
Nothing, is just a new chasis to replace the current type 89 chasis, the turret and weapon system will remain the same
This is what the source links to on Wikipedia.
It’s certainly… interesting…
*replied to wrong person, meant to reply to @SkyMusashi
Pretty sure I read in one of these threads that the JGSDF has basically ran out of Jyu-MATs
Assuming that’s true, wouldn’t it make more sense to use the newer Chu-MATs instead?
Here’s with the Type 89 turret:
If i remember correctly the photos are from 2019 but as of today is canceled

Isn’t there a publicly available video on it’s testing showing it can tank 400mm of kinetic ammo? It was tested against 3bm46. Though the in-game 200mm could be a measure of one plate. I was expecting it to perform better smh.
