I added a performance section and beefed up the production section, but this article is still a little skimpy. Any WWII buffs out there wanna make this thing fly?-- 5th Angel 23:33, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
As per @ Kierzek request here, I'm gonna discuss it here. I'm yet to found the RS for this particular tank, but in the meantime I will explain my reasoning. As you can see, the Type 97 tank MG looks like this (without the barrel jacket/armor) when mounted on tank. For example the Te-Ke with tank MG looks like this. As you might discern, the shape of the barrel is different than the one found on the tank at Soest, which more akin to the Type 89 fixed aircraft MG which looks like this. Note that the similar type 97 fixed aircraft MG have different patterns of holes in it's barrel shroud. That's just my 2 cents, regards. Jauhsekali ( talk) 21:43, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
