Best wheeled tanks
During World War I, tanks were used as breakthrough vehicles that tore through enemy defences and could negotiate obstacles like wide trenches. With time, though, their role on the battlefield shifted considerably. And when engineers gained the ability to mount powerful weapons on a fast and cheap wheeled chassis, a new type of combat vehicle was born… the wheeled tank.

The story of how Mitsubishi started making planes is pretty typical for a Japanese company of the time. This esteemed manufacturer made a foray into this specific industry after WW1, as did many others… but it took the company roughly two decades to find its footing there. Not all of their original designs were a success, so, for quite a while, Mitsubishi engineers had to make do by assembling aircraft and engines under license.
