Japanese tank

[congofal]

2 years ago i was at a ceremony to bring out a very special tank that the Oregon Military Museum is slowly restoring.
The tank is a Japanese Type 95 Ha-Go light tank that was recovered from the Yakima Training Center , it was allmost untouched , but all those years out in the open did a lot of damage to the inside and the metal , but the museum is slowly bringing it back to life , i think once summer is here i will go back to the museum and take pics of how it looks now.
Here's pics from 2 years ago

Yakima Firing Center? Wow, I did a lot of training there. Where was this thing kept?

Wade, this Japanese tank would be fun to run around your property with, wouldn't it?

Gads, look how thin that front armor is!

The Museum staff told me that it had been at the range for a long time , before it was recovered , but i don't see any damage to it.
