Notes: The Kohkidohsha is a Japanese vehicle similar in concept and design to the US HMMWV. It is slightly larger, and can carry a pedestal-mounted Stinger SAM system, in addition to other armament.

Notes: This is a 1950s-vintage light truck based on the US T214 truck. It is rarely found in Japanese service anymore, but it still soldiers on in Vietnam, Indonesia, and among civilians in South Korea and Japan. The truck has a conventional layout with the engine in front, crew cab, and rear cargo area.

Notes: This vehicle was developed at about the same time as the Q4W73, and is about the same size. It is also a development of the T214. More of them still remain in service with Japanese forces, and they are also used by South Korea and US Forces stationed in Japan, Korea, and the Philippines.

Notes: These two vehicles are basically snow-cat types used primarily by the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force primarily in the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido, where much of the terrain is mountainous and at high altitude. They are of conventional construction for such vehicles, with a front-mounted engine compartment and a crew/passenger compartment behind stretching to the rear of the vehicle. The Type 60, the smaller of the pair has a crew/passenger compartment covered by a canvas tarpaulin over bows; the front windshield may be folded over the top of the hood, and the tarpaulin cover has four small plastic windows on the sides. A drop tailgate is located at the rear, and the rear is the only method of access to the vehicle if the tarpaulin is mounted. The suspension is tracked, using eight small roadwheels on each side. Transmission is manual. Maximum towed load is 1.5 tons. The Type 60 was developed from a civilian design, the KC-20 of 1952; the Type 60 dates from 1960.

The Type 61 is basically a larger version of the Type 60, with a longer engine compartment to accommodate the much more powerful turbocharged diesel engine. As the name would indicate, the Type 61 was introduced in 1961. While the Type 60 is used primarily to carry troops or cargo, the Type 61 is used mostly as an artillery tractor in addition to being a general cargo/troop carrier. Towing capacity is 3.2 tons.

The Type 60 is also known as the Medium Snow Mobile, while the Type 61 is also called the Large Snow Mobile.

Notes: This is a Japanese upgrade of the Jeep, with a greater cargo capacity and a diesel engine. The vehicle may mount a variety of weapons, including machineguns, grenade launchers, recoilless rifles, or light ATGM (normally the KAM-3D). Besides Japan, the Type 73 is used by Burma, Indonesia, and Thailand.

Notes: This light truck was slated to be replaced in Japan by the Kohkidohsha, but many were still around as 2004. It is a cabover layout aircraft, with the cab over the engine, and a rear cargo area. It is designed for cold weather, with an engine preheater and crew heater for the cab and cargo area. Variants include a cargo/troop carrier, an ambulance, and a mortar carrier.
