Japanese - Ho Ni

The Japanese Type 1 Ho-Ni was a self-propelled gun developed by the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II, designed to provide mobile artillery support. Built on the chassis of the Type 97 Chi-Ha medium tank, the Ho-Ni was equipped with a 75mm Type 90 field gun mounted in an open-topped superstructure. This setup allowed it to deliver powerful direct and indirect fire against both enemy armor and fortified positions, though the open-top design left the crew vulnerable to small arms and artillery fire. The Ho-Ni was primarily used for supporting infantry in defensive roles and in engagements where mobility and firepower were crucial. It saw limited production and was deployed mainly in Japan's home defense and in areas where Japanese forces needed additional fire support against advancing Allied troops.
