The Type 97 Chi-Ha (九七式中戦車 チハ Kyunana-shiki chu-sensha chiha) was a medium tank used by the Imperial Japanese Army during the Second Sino-Japanese War the Battles of Khalkhin Gol against the Soviet Union and the Second World War. It was the most widely produced Japanese medium tank of World War II although the armor protection was considered as average in the 1930s. The 57 mm main gun designed for infantry support was a carry over from the 1933 Type 89 medium tank.
