However, in the Second World War, the Type 97 Chi-Ha did not performed well against its contemporary foes during tank to tank combat, largely due to its thin armor and relatively light main armament. Some 2,123 Type 97 Chi-Ha tanks were produced by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi Industries, among others between 1938 and 1943.
