IJN U.S. Army August 1943  Justin Taylan 2008  Justin Taylan 2011 |
Tank History Delivered to the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) as Type 95 Ha Go Light Tank manufacture number unknown. Wartime History During 1943 or early 1943, transported to Kiska Island as part of the garrison. On July 23, 1943 abandoned when the Japanese withdrew. Wreckage During August 1943, one of three tanks captured by the U.S. Army on Kiska Island. Afterwards, transported to the United States for technical evaluation at Aberdeen Proving Ground. Display This tank was displayed outdoors at the U.S. Army Ordnance Museum (Aberdeen Proving Ground). In 2008, this tank was painted overall white and was not restored. The plaque in front of the tank incorrectly identified it as a "Type 94 captured on Attu" [sic, Type 95 captured on Kiska]. References Othere sources incorrectly state this tank was assigned to 11th Tank Regiment, this is incorrect as that unit was deployed on Shumshu Island in the Kuriles. Contribute
