An 8-wheel vehicle, the JGSDF classify it as a Manoeuvre Combat Vehicle (MCV), a highly mobile and well-armed vehicle intended to provide supporting fire and take on enemy armour as a part of rapid response units. Its domestically designed L\/52 105mm rifled gun is a low-recoil piece with perforated muzzle brake and a fire control system to enable accurate firing on the move. Rolled steel turret and hull employ modular and spaced armour estimated to be able to survive frontal hits from 20-30mm class guns and portable anti-tank weapons. Thanks to its 570hp engine, the 26-ton Type 16 has a top speed of around 100km\/h and significant range; it looks set to provide a major boost to JGSDF units as its rollout continues.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Model\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/48 scale plastic model assembly kit.
