Notes: This Japanese vehicle is a command and communications vehicle on the Type 87 reconnaissance vehicle chassis. In this hull, the vehicle has no turret; instead, the Type 82 has a raised superstructure. The command post version has at least 4 radios, and the communications vehicle can literally have as may radios as can fit in the vehicle, often carrying 8 or more. Command vehicles are typically fitted with an inertial land navigations system and battle management computers, as well as map boards and other electronics, while communications have many antennas and rolls of wire and other relay devices. The driver sits to the right front, and one of the radio operators to the left front, and there are two hatches in the roof of the troop compartment, one with a heavy machinegun mount, and one with a light/medium machinegun mount. There is also a door in the rear of the hull, and two small windows in the each side of the hull.
