japanese type 95 light tank
 

Is anyone able to assist in some engineers drawings or some 3 profile views of a type 95?? We have a spare LP2 hull here & as the same amount of work would be required to reproduce the upper armour, and we have a carrier, we are considering reproducing a jap tank instead. As the type 95 was based on a Carden Lloyd design, the dimentions are similar. (70cm longer & 50cm wider). We feel it would be a not too difficult construction using carrier components & give our carrier something to come up against in displays down the track. As there is no operational Jap tanks that I know of around, apart from dome other replicas based here in Australia it would be "something different" & close to original looking when finished.

Need upper hull measurments, turret outline, and angles of the sloping armour between tracks to turret.

Ron W perhaps you would be interested in this as a "new build" machine....

There are some pretty detailed photos of a Type 95 being restored on the G503.com forum. Do a search for Japanese in the tracked forum and you'll find the rest of them.G503 type 95
