Comparing: M3 Light vs. T-127 vs. Type 98 Ke-Ni

The most famous light tank of World War II, with a total of 13,859 vehicles manufactured from 1941 through September 1943. 1,576 tanks (mostly of the M3A1 version) were supplied to the U.S.S.R. under Lend-Lease, and many more to the British.

Developed together with the T-126 at Factory No. 174 during the summer of 1940. Vehicle development was suspended during the preliminary design phase and then discontinued due to problems with the V-3 diesel engine.

A further modification of the Ha-Go developed by Hino Jidosha Kogyo. Despite the improved dynamic characteristics, the tank did not replace the Ha-Go. About 100 tanks were manufactured by Mitsubishi and Hino.
