Hull & survivability

The front-to-side armor ratio is 2.0:1. This pronounced angling makes the Ji-Ro significantly stronger when keeping its front facing the enemy.

Mobility

Forward-to-reverse speed ratio is 2.7:1. Reverse speed is limited, so pre-aim and exposure timing matter more on this vehicle.

About this vehicle

In 1940, Japan started developing designs for a new tank destroyer. For this vehicle, they used a modified chassis of the Type 95 Ro-Go, which never went into production. Due to its large size, high-caliber guns could be placed on the vehicle, and a choice was made in favor of the 105 mm Type 92 field gun, which was already being used in the army. Its engine compartment was placed in the front of the hull, and the closed fighting compartment was located in the rear. However, work on the vehicle was discontinued around the beginning of 1943 due to heightened requirements for mobility and armor.
