* The fortified armour of the Japanese army's tanks.
* The military's high commanders
(Remodeling beyond recognition is no-no!)
Are you cowards so afraid to die?
(We must keep Chi-Ha-tan's chastity.)
Are you doubting the state-of-the-art weaponry the Emperor has granted us?!
(Scanty clothing is awesome!)
You will never be allowed to cripple the authority of our military's weaponry with such revisions!
(Weak Chi-Ha-tan is MOE~!)
Fools! You want to armor-plate the tanks?
Easy removal at inspection time (for being undetected by the military's high commanders)
Removable additional armor!
25mm front armor + 25mm additional armor
Remodeled Type 97
It is said these sort of modifications were not officially sanctioned by the military's high commanders, so the armour was designed to be attached with bolts rather than welding. Later on, three remodeled Type 97s were produced, using more appropriate armour based on that of a captured M3.
The leader of the 14th Tank Regiment, Lieutenant Colonel Ueda, who had great enthusiasm for upgrading his equipment, drafted the production of various raw materials and machine components in preparation for the invasion of Imphal, such as, (1) double-plated armour (2) tank trailers for transporting fuel and ammunition (3) equipment for navigating difficult terrain considered the most important of these was the double-plated armour.
Though no army wages combat without tanks with strengthened defenses, such as fortified armour or caterpillar tracks or sandbags, only the Japanese tanks, which employed no gimmicks and had a simple appearance, were spoken of with such resolve by the military higher-ups.
