Armored vehicle type 97
In JGSDF(Japan Ground Self-Defense Force) Cutting down their supply budget of
amored vehicle is the main term of the 4th LX-plan which is well-known.
And key of this plan is development of this type of armored vehicle which after called
Armored vehicle Type97.
Now JGSDF is making a use of 3type of armored vehicle,
Butt in this plan, JGSDF trys to adjust that
3type of armored vehicle to 1type of armored vehicle.
One-type of armored vehicle is multi-purpose armored vehicle.
The govermental finasial facilities ivest to a joint company which is
mixed Mitubishi and komatsu those companies.
This development project was going well and well, but the maiking multi-purpose
vehicle made the frame of vehicle getting bigger and bigger.
And the cutting the budget which is their first intention was far to
achieve.
So that why the 4th LX-plan was held over forever at all.
