Product Description
In 1939, Japan’s primary anti-tank weapon was the 37mm Type 94 quick-firing gun which served as both an anti-tank gun and an infantry support gun. The 37mm calibre anti-tank gun was common in Western armies at the outbreak of hostilities when most tanks were relatively thinly armoured. However, while the development of more capable armoured vehicles proceeded at a rapid pace in the European theatre, the Japanese were somewhat slow to recognise how far their tanks and anti-tank guns were falling behind.
The Japanese believed the newer 47mm gun (a similar calibre of gun used by the Soviets at Nomonhan) would be effective against any tanks supplied to the Chinese and the expected light tanks which would be fielded by the Allies in any Pacific War.
