The 47mm top gun features average damage for its tier, excellent penetration (giving you a chance against some tier 5s) and average RoF. Unfortunately the Tank is not suited for solo scouting due the poor acceleration and bad turning handling, and should be used as support whenever facing tier 5 matches, while on lower tier matches it can handle itself pretty well for aggressive roles. | |

The Type 2597 Chi-Ha is a Chinese tier 3 light tank.
Developed by Mitsubishi from 1935 through 1937. The vehicle was mass-produced from 1938 through 1942, alongside an upgraded Shinhoto Chi-Ha for the last two years, with a total of 1,220 vehicles of both types manufactured. The Chi-Ha and Shinhoto Chi-Ha tanks were widely used by Japanese forces in China, and after Japan capitulation, these vehicles were used by both the PLA and Kuomintang forces in the Civil War of 1946.
The Type-97 Chi-Ha is a Chinese tier 3 light tank that was imported from Japan, making it, in a way, the first Japanese tank in the game. The 47mm top gun features average damage for its tier, excellent penetration (giving you a chance against some tier 5s) and average RoF. Unfortunately the Tank is not suited for solo scouting due the poor acceleration and bad turning handling, and should be used as support whenever facing tier 5 matches, while on lower tier matches it can handle itself pretty well for aggressive roles.
The Type 2597 Chi-Ha leads to the SU-76G FT, and the M5A1 Stuart.
