The Type 5 medium tank Chi-Ri (五式中戦車 チリ Go-shiki chusensha Chi-ri) was the penultimate medium tank developed by the Imperial Japanese Army in World War II. Intended to be a heavier more powerful version of Japan’s sophisticated Type 4 Chi-To medium tank in performance it was designed to surpass the US M4 Sherman medium tanks being fielded by the Allied forces. The single prototype was still being built when the war ended.
