At first I thought it was some sort of funky Russian T-27 tankette. However, the more I look at it, the more I realise I have absolutely no idea what it is. It is certainly some sort of tankette. The bogie wheels are similar to a Universal Carrier, as are the tracks, but the superstructure is entirely different.

I generally tend to be very well informed about tankettes. However, this one is totally over my head.

What is it?

Aha! So right you are!

Thank you for that. I had totally forgotten the Japanese "TK" Tankette was designed to haul a specific tracked trailer.

I saw the "Japanese Two Man Tank" Sign and immediately presumed that I had never seen such a two man tank, so it must be something I had not seen before.

Thanks again!

It's a chemical supply trailer. One TK with this trailer has been captured by Red Army, now preserved in Kubinka tank museum.
