In China, they have mortar that loops grenades over into the Trench or Hill sides, or castle defend, so is their Artillery can bust down most defend the local have. Japanese tanks were in abundances and suits for policing tasks and lock down regional highway and other transportation route. Japanese Small arms collected were design to be easily replaces, and they taken considering into the cost of productions, and simplification of parts into consideration. The Type 26 and Nambu Type 14 are both domestic product, while they aren't as strong as 9mm Lugers pistol, both 8mm Nambu and 9mm Japanese do enough, but the main point is to have them, at the ready in abundance quantity, and most officers carry their own purchase pistol anyway. Arisaka rifles is bases on a numbers of rifles, but they re-engineer the Swedish 6.5mm Mausers whiles following Italian design principal, result in something that look as fancy as other Mausers rifle, but is very simplify, the round 6.5mm in general are less expensive to produces, have lower recoils which make it's easy to aims, and training troops. LMG on the other hands, fit into a SWAT automatic weapons, more than traditional role MG42 and the like fit into. The Type 92, 94 Tankette with it's machine guns variant and 37mm cannon variants works as very cheap IFV, more or less an armored compact Technical that works as a pill box and drawn opposition fires, as well as cover for infantry, but the best thing about this tanks is, for every 10 soldiers, you will be expected to see one. Type 97 The Ke is a cheap upgrade to the Type 94. The I-Go tanks, the Japanese first battle tanks, were outdated and they just thrown them at everything so they can replace them, still it is a good IFV light tanks (despite having the speed of a turtle, must be why they want to replace them, that and it's being too tall) that works as a bunker busters, can block small arms well enough. The Type 95 Ha-Go arms with the 37mm cannon and Type 97 Chi-Ha with the 57mm cannon tanks are Japanese MBT of this period, The Type 95 Ha-Go is a typical colonial polices tanks, it is fast, fairly easy to repairs and not that expensive to produces. Against nothing short of anti-tank weapons, it's would be destroys asides from those, which China troops had access to little and not all regions have then. The Type 97 Chi-Ha concept is of an upgraded Type 95 Ha-Go and did much of the same, except it's was up in armors and everything else. The Japanese also deploys tons of armored Cars, truck troops carriers, faster motor bikes and typical cars. If they wasn't fighting forces with superior technology and forces with superior access to resources, if the wars is only on the colonial front, any battles of the local population fighting against Japanese colonialism, after Japanese colonialism had replaces European colonialism, would have turns into a Guerilla wars on all front. In that sense, all of Japan small arms and mechanize armors combat were well suited for exactly those roles.

They might have won more battles if they weren’t full of themselves and obsessed with front line charges. Also: Flamethrowers were extremely effective.

I heard that was the first thing servicemen ditched. 😂😂

When I was a kid, I convinced my mom to buy an Arisaka rifle as a decoration at an antique show she dragged me to, which cost $25. It had been sporterized at some point and had the magazine spring removed, but still had the chrysanthemum crest, and the firing mechanism still worked. I have no idea if it was converted to an American caliber by whoever sporterized it, or what happened to it after I grew up and left the house, but it was a cool little piece of history!

I have a Nambu Type 94 and two swords my grandfather brought back from The Philippines. I have no idea how he got two swords home.

They were Shin Gunto not Kyu Gunto like what was said in this video. Kyu were modelled after european sabers during the meiji restoration and the shin gunto were modelled after samurai tachis but were massed produced after the 1930s.

Some of those pictures of the Type 100 submachine gun looked like either the British Lancaster submachine gun or the German models either the 1918 or the 1928 submachine guns. Granted both used a side loading magazine, but the barrel shrouds look different.

First black and white photo in 2:39 has a Steyr-Solothurn S1-100, known also as MP34, which Japan bought from Austria in mid 1930's. Second photo in 2:44 has SIG Bergmann M/20, which is an improved copy of the MP18 manufactured originally in Switzerland, where Japan bought those. Bergmanns were also manufactured in China, where Japanese also captured those. Third photo in 2:57 also has a SIG Bergmann, with a bayonet mount. Also unlike the video claims, Type 100 had a rate of fire around 700-900 rounds per minute, depending on the model.

@@Mahtimeisseli Thanks, I heard that the Japanese officers sometimes bothered to get Western pistols since a lot of their handguns weren't as good. It might make sense they would adopt some European submachine guns.

@@schizoidboy the probable reason why Japanese bought European SMGs instead manufacturing their own in early WW2 was that the SMG wasn't shown it's power yet and the battle doctrine didn't really include those. Same can be seen from some other nations during the start of WW2; Brits didn't have any SMGs before late 1940, The USSR got only about 5000 PPD-34 SMGs, French manufactured only about 2000 MAS-38 SMGs before the German invasion etc. Japan probably got the first experience of the power of the SMG during the battles in China in late 1930's, after which the development of the domestic SMG got a bit more priority. Still as the original Type 100/40 got approved into production in 1940, only about 500 were manufactured by June 1942.

Intressing Weapons.

Thanks for a fantastically informative video ❤

As nobody else has mentioned it I will. The type 94 pistol had a projecting sear that meant it could fire without touching the trigger. It might just be a myth but it is said that some Japanese soldiers who had to hand over their type 94 pistols when they surrendered used this sear to fire at their captors.

talks about type 100 smg, proceeds to only show troops with the mp28

Thanks for the video

Nambu- Ripoff Luger

Kyu gunto means :First military sword. its successor was the Shin Gunto , : New military sword.

My sister and I are so remidned of Call of Duty World at War PS3, Medal of Honor Rising Sun PS2 and Pacific Assault PC!

Always love Japan history

From a history nut☝☝loved it

Interesting ❤❤❤❤❤

Ah, the Woodpecker... Type 92...

The high velocity artillery shells? The bang arrived a few seconds after the blast. Quite strange.

they type 94 nambu pistol was a total piece of garbage

What about the type 38 light mg with the grasshopper feeding mechanism?

Can you make a video WW1 japanese?

The standard type 38 was a long rifle like any other Shorter rifle = lighter recoil....??? The nambu 14 has no influence from the p08 7.7mm is a pretty normal mg cartridge not much bigger then 3006 or 8mm The kyo gunto is not a shin gunto The type 30 bajonett was definitely not converted into a trench knife other then by us soldiers

THE JAPANESE COULDNT MAKE SMALL ARMS. JUST LOOK AT THEM! THEY MADE A HAND HELD MORTAR BUT FAILED TO TEACH THE SOLDIERS HOW TO USE THEM SO THEY PUT THEM ON THEIR THIGHS WHEN FIRING THEM. WHAT HAPPENED? THEY BROKE THEIR THIGH BONES AFTER FIRST SHOT. ITS TRUE!
