C5: Upgraded Type 16
Since the first units were acquired in 2016, the Japan Ground Self Defense Force (JGSDF)'s Type 16 has seen deployment across the Japanese archipelago. This eight-wheeled vehicle is capable of an impressive 100km/h and sports a rifled 105mm gun offering superior accuracy, and is intended to serve in the JGSDF's rapid deployment units. Feedback from units operating the Type 16 has been incorporated in its continuous evolution, in the case of C5 vehicles (those purchased in the 2020 fiscal year budget) resulting in a turret-rear air conditioning unit (carried over from the C4 design). Some C5 Type 16s were even given winches to aid in recovery of knocked-out vehicles on the field.
