IBG – 72089 – Type 95 “Ha-Go” “Manchu” suspension

Description:

Type 95 “Ha-Go”
“Manchu” Suspension

Unassembled plastic model kit in 1/72 scale of a Japanese WWII light tank Type 95, updated with the “Manchu” suspension, also called Hokuman, and upgrade performed after experience in Manchukuo, where the sorghum grass caused problems on the earlier models. In this model the wheels and suspension were inverted with the addition of small wheels to allow the tanks freely through the grass. This model saw action during Khalkhin Gol battles against Soviet Union in 1939.
