The Isuzu Type 98 AA Machine Gun Carriers married a Type 98 20mm automatic cannon with the back of a Type 94 or (later) a Type 96 six-wheeled truck. The Type 98 20mm autocannon was the most common light anti-aircraft gun of the Imperial Japanese Army, with a range of 5,500 metres, and could fire up to 300 rounds a minute. These self-propelled anti-aircraft guns were not mass-produced, the few that saw service were deployed in the air defence units of Japanese tank divisions.
The Type 98 AA truck provides a Japanese force with its sole dedicated anti-aircraft option. It is armed with a platform-mounted light automatic cannon with the Flak special rule, but is equally deadly if turned upon ground-based infantry or lighter vehicles!
Box contains one resin & metal Type 98 AA Machine Gun Carrier, decal sheet, and vehicle damage markers.
