Type 95 Kurogane

For other uses of 'Type 95', go to Type 95 (Disambiguation). The Type 95 "Kurogane" (Japanese for Black Metal) is a small, fast reconnaissance vehicle designed and produced by Imperial Japan during World War 2. It was the only completely Japanese-designed recon car ever used by the Japanese Army.

Battlefield 1942
In Battlefield 1942, the Kurogane is Japan's standard light vehicle. It spawns regularly at certain IJN controlled flags. It is fast and small, but has very poor armour, being vulnerable to hand grenades and machine gun fire, and has little protection for its passengers. It can have 2 players on board: the driver and a passenger beside the driver.

Battlefield 1943
In Battlefield 1943, the Type 95 spawns regularly at certain IJN controlled flags. It's fast and small, but has very poor armour, being vulnerable to rifle grenades and even machine gun fire, and protection for its passengers. It can have 3 people aboard: a driver, a passenger beside the driver (that can use any of his/her infantry weapons) and a person above them manning the mounted M1919.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2
The Type 95 makes a brief appearance in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 during the opening mission, Operation Aurora. The player is ordered to use the mounted machine gun (a Browning .30 cal) to shoot enemy Type 95s that are chasing them and their squad during the escape to the sub pens. The car itself is invulnerable, but the player can still die.
