Notes | The So-Ki was a light tankette which could function either on tracks or rail. It carried an internal device which allowed it to be raised and lowered from track to ground in minutes. They served as security vehicles and were used to protect vulnerable stretches of lines between garrisons. They were used in China, Manchuria and Burma. |
