Japanese 57mm Tank HE Round

Post by SteveM8 » Sat Jan 11, 2014 6:31 am

I have not found a photo of one of these anywhere on the web. I just added this one to my collection, so I thought that I would share it with you. It goes to the Type 97 Chi-Ha tank or Type 89 medium tank. I do not believe that our troops ran into too many of these - might be why this round does not show up very often. I am still trying to determine if this is the correct fuze - it is a Type 88 short delay. Should this have the standard Type 88 impact fuze that goes on the 70mm Howitzer round?
