| Notes | The type 11 was based on a Puteaux design that was used by the French army during World War One. The Japanese acquired a license to build these guns and added their own modifications, which made then lighter and easily carried by its crew. It was carried in the same way as the heavy machine guns and anti-tank rifles, by metal poles. It quickly proved itself as a useful infantry support weapon and saw action in China. It was usually issued at regimental level but mid-war it was considered obsolete relegated to reserve units. |
