The Japanese are setting their sights on destroying Allied vehicles with the new Type 3 Ho-Ni Tank Destroyer.
The Ho-Ni was based on the chassis of the Chi-Ha and mounted a 75mm gun. Although the superstructure was armoured to the front and sides, the fighting compartment was open at the top and rear – making the crew vulnerable to attack.
The Ho-Ni III was an improvement on the original Ho-Ni with a completely enclosed superstructure. Most of these improved tank destroyers were retained in the Japanese home islands to oppose the anticipated Allied invasion.
