Developed from the successful and well-understood Chi-Ha, the Chi-Nu possessed considerably thicker armour, and crucially a 75mm Type 3 main gun. This was one of the most potent Japanese anti-tank gun designs, and when paired with the improved armour allowed the Chi-Nu to fight on roughly equal terms with the M4 Sherman. Although capable, it would never see combat as the entire production run of a little over 150 was retained for the defence of the Japanese Home Islands, waiting for an invasion which never came. However, it makes for a fascinating historical what-if!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the Bolt Action tabletop, the Chi-Nu allows otherwise extremely lightweight Japanese Armoured Platoons to field a Medium Tank of their own. A 9+ Damage Value combined with a Medium Anti-Tank gun makes the Chi-Nu a thoroughly respectable addition to any Japanese force, and a genuine threat to all armoured vehicles on the tabletop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eStudio miniature painted by Darek Wyrozebski.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Warlord Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53733404508454,"sku":"402016004","price":53.6,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0731\/5020\/2150\/files\/402016004_Chi-NuMediumTank01.webp?v=1787190811","url":"https:\/\/thecombatcompany.com\/products\/chi-nu-medium-tank-pre-order","provider":"The Combat Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
