When people talk about WW2 Japanese tank, especially this Type95 Light tank, they tend to forget American M2, Polish 7TP, French R35, German　Panzer1

Production of his light tank started 1935. Why do people try to compare this tank with other Mid-size tank like M4 Sherman???????

Shouldn't he be saying "Banzai!!!"

@yuzotasaki

the same reaspn people compare the M4 sherman with king tigers...

[TalonMercenary]

Now this is a very rare spectacle, really good job here

[Azyashi]

Wow, never expected to see a video of one of these moving by itself!

jap tanks were good in the 30s but during the 40s they were obsolete

I'm surprised any survived outside museum pieces.

@redreaper2020 It is just a user name i chose in 2008, people tend to take it more seriously then me.

[redreaper2020]

@WorstCommenter2008 well, considering how derisive you've been about the veterans, and that your name is "worstcommenter"...yeah.

[WorstCommenter2008]

@redreaper2020 Maybe because those still living men never even saw any action, or maybe they were so crap they didn't just give them a better tank.

Not going to give a good tank to someone who thinks the Lee is a beast. Oh and i don't care WHEN it was designed or how good it was at that time, Obviously it will beat some Light tanks like the pzI/II, considering the PzI was more like a training tank.

All in all, you got your opinion and I got mine. I cannot convince you otherwise, nor vice versa

[redreaper2020]

@WorstCommenter2008 No. You know nothing about it.

When the Lee was designed and primarily built, the Panzer I/II, BT-2, etc., were the norm. The same frontal armor as a T-34, an effective antitank and an effective anti-infantry weapon (both able to kill its armored competitors), a fantastically reliable suspension and tracks, etc. No, it won't take an 88 broadside and keep going, but in 1941, it was a beast.

I know men still living who did fight and live in those tanks, and they loved them.

[WorstCommenter2008]

@redreaper2020 My opinion on the Lee has nothing to do with World of Tanks thank you very much.

The tank is shit, unless you have actually been in one and destroyed something with that piece of American garbage, don't try to make it look good.

And for the lend lease part, i was not serious about that. But they sure as hell did not want the abomination they had created.
