Sniper teams, anti-tank teams, and flamethrower teams are among the most common weapon types, presenting the enemy with numerous challenges that must be overcome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe lack of anti-tank guns capable of engaging heavier tanks like the Sherman forced the Japanese infantry to develop desperate anti-tank weapons. These often required soldiers to take extreme risks or even sacrifice their lives. The most famous of these weapons was the Longe mine, a shaped charge mounted on a bamboo pole. In other cases, soldiers waited in camouflaged pits with an artillery shell, which they rammed into the underside of a passing tank, or they strapped on several magnetic mines or backpack charges and threw themselves at the enemy vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Engineer units formed part of every IJA division. They carried explosives for demolition work and attacks on enemy fortifications and were also equipped for mine clearance. Some carried the Type 100 flamethrower, which saw use in Indonesia and the Philippines during the early years of World War II.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe jungles of South Asia offered snipers ample opportunity to distinguish themselves, and the Japanese snipers were well-equipped with the Type 97 telescopic sight rifle. The rifle was particularly suitable for covert sniping, as the small-caliber bullet and long barrel produced little muzzle flash or smoke, making the shooter virtually invisible to the enemy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The box contains:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Six Warlord Resin™ Figures\u003cbr\u003e Plastic bases\u003cbr\u003e Three Order Cubes\u003cbr\u003e These figures are cast in our new and improved Warlord Resin Plus™.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Warlord Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48023258038442,"sku":"125043","price":10.29,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/3432\/6698\/files\/125043-japanese-army-weapons-teams-402216005-1.webp?v=1783203321","url":"https:\/\/tabletop-depot.de\/en\/products\/japanese-army-weapons-teams","provider":"Tabletop Depot","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
