Historical Reference

A heavy Japanese tank, leveraging the advantages of German military engineering. At the developement stage, it was intended for the defense of Japanese islands. It had well-sloped armor and a combat weight comparable to that of a Tiger. Existed only as a blueprint, a prototype was never built.
