This work would not have been as complete as it is, without the great help of Trevor Larkum, and his document “Preserved Japanese Tanks”, which was released
online for several years. Thanks to him for his researches.
This document is a synthesis of photos and information published on the web. I would like to thank the people who took these photos and put them on their websites, or sent them to me, and also those who helped me doing these lists (particularly people of
the AFV News Discussion Board). For any question, you can email me at [email protected]
