| Notes | The Ka-Chi was a larger vehicle then the lighter Ka-Mi. It was based on a modified chassis of the Chi-He medium tank and utilised the same pontoon principle used on the Ka-Mi. It was armed with a 47mm gun and a two machine guns. It was only built in limited number and they were mainly stationed on the Japanese home islands but some reports say that some were used during the battle of Kwajalein. |
