This page is about the premium Japanese medium tank Chi-Ha Short Gun. For other uses, see Chi-Ha (Family). |
Description
The Type 97 Chi-Ha Short Gun is a premium rank II Japanese medium tank with a battle rating of 2.0 (AB) and 1.7 (RB/SB). It was introduced in Update 1.65 "Way of the Samurai" with the initial Japanese tank tree.
The Chi-Ha Short Gun is a Naval refit of the Chi-Ha Kai with a Navy short gun (120 mm), it keeps the decent mobility from the Chi-Ha (Family) chassis but loses the turret rotation speed due the added weight of the gun.
General info
The Type 97 Chi-Ha is an upgraded version of the earlier Type 89 I-Go Ko. The engine has been upgraded, from the Mitsubishi A6120VD air-cooled straight-six diesel with 120 hp to a Mitshubishi SA12200VD air-cooled V12 diesel with 170 hp. As such, the top speed has increased from 27 km/h on the I-Go Ko to 40 km/h on the Chi-Ha.
The Chi-Ha Short Gun is a later iteration of the Chi-Ha with a modified turret coming from the Chi-Ha Kai. For firepower the Chi-Ha Short Gun has a Navy short gun (120 mm) that launches 13 kg HE shells.
Survivability and armour
Light, but effective against weaker guns (i.e. early French), weaker shells (low-caliber HE), and in long range engagements.

Pros and cons
Pros:
- Familiar Chi-Ha (Family) chassis
- Typically, if the round penetrates, it kills
- Ten-second reload (Expert Crew) with a 120 mm cannon
- Five crew members
- 30 mm of penetration at any range and angle
Cons:
- Only fires high explosive rounds
- Poor turret traverse, just 5.1°/s
- Large shell drop (shells only travel 290 m/s)
- No roof-mounted anti-aircraft/infantry machine gun
History
Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the vehicle in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main
template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>
, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />
. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===
, also if applicable).
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
