About
Developed by Mitsubishi from 1935 through 1937. The tank was mass-produced from 1938 through 1942, the last two years alongside an upgraded Shinhoto Chi-Ha, with a total of 2,880 vehicles of both types manufactured. The Chi-Ha and Shinhoto Chi-Ha tanks were widely used by Japanese forces in China, and after Japan's capitulation, these tanks were used by both the PLA and Kuomintang forces in the Civil War of 1946.
