now what you get with a hargo tank it's designed by what sounds like an irish comedian his name's tomio ahara he's actually the japanese tank designer he comes up with a requirement is issued by the japanese military they've already got tanks in service they've bought some tanks from britain they bought what looked like the vicar's medium tank it had an engine fire some of the crew were burnt so they decide in japan they're going to go for diesel so this has actually got a mitsubishi diesel engine in the back it's got a NUMBER_TOKEN millimeter gun it's not that high velocity it's got a new suspension system developed by tamio ahara it's called a bell crank suspension system and they put it into production it sees action from the late NUMBER_TOKENs onwards and it's it's very successful from the point of view the japanese because basically it's not fighting much other armor the japanese then concentrate their resources on building ships because again as a maritime nation island hopping tanks take second place in their design process
