Editing Imperial Japanese Equipment (section)

=== Tank Destroyers/Assault Guns ===
Similarly to the whole tank thing, Japanese Tank Destroyers and Assault guns suffered from the Navy and Army thing. When they did finally start producing them, they were rushed, too late to make a difference, relatively poor in quality, and facing off against an incredibly pissed off enemy that had goddamn howitzers mounted in tank turrets.

*'''Type 4 Ho-Ro:''' Based off the Type 97 chassis and studies of the German [[Grille]]. Mounted a respectable 105mm cannon in an open topped casemate design. Few (12) were produced, with the ones that were facing off against the [[M7 Priest]], [[US 155mm|M1]], and [[US 105mm Artillery|M101]]. So yeah, they were having a fun day every time they were deployed.

*'''Type 97 Chi-Ha, 120mm cannon:''' Based again off the Type 97 chassis. The Short Barrel variant has the "most" documentation, being just a Chi-Ha with a 120mm goddamn anti-submarine cannon mounted to it. Fitted to fire HE shells, it was able to fire AP shells as well. Primarily used in the infantry support role. A variant appears in War Thunder called the Type 97 Long Barreled, fitted with a long barreled 120mm cannon that left the crew exposed to fire, though documentation is even rarer and thus it is unknown how prolific the latter of these truly were.
