The Type 89 I-Go/Chi-Ro is a Japanese tier 2 medium tank.
Developed in 1929. The first Japanese tank with a diesel engine, which served as the main tank in the early 1930s. By the beginning of World War II, the design of the vehicle was already obsolete; however, it was widely used until the end of the war. Vehicles of this type last saw action in 1944 in the Philippines.
The Type 89 I-Go/Chi-Ro marks the end of its Japanese medium line.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Rate of Fire, DpM, and Alpha Damage is beyond incredible for a tier II
- Retains well-known japanese gun depression; does VERY good on hills
- Slightly larger HP Pool compared to its peers
- HE Shells are about on par with the AP shells in terms of penetration
- Good trainer for the upcoming Type 91 and 95 heavies as they all play similarly
Cons:
- Sluggish speed and traverse; Hillclimbing is a slow and tedious nightmare
- Armor is severely lacking for a medium; wont bounce many shots
- Penetration is bad, even by tier II standards; almost completely useless in tier III
- Pretty large for a tier II; will draw fire, even from a distance
- High priority target due to its large calibre gun and soggy cardboard armor
