Thanks, here's another that required a bit of digging.

1. Isuzu Hucks Starter, beside a Ki-27 of the Hiko Dai 77 Sentai. The white stripes and blue cranes identify the aircraft as belonging to the 1st Chutai (1941-1942). With the addition of the red band around the fuselage it becomes the commander's aircraft (stationed in Burma 1942).
2. Type 95 on Rabual.

I do have a another question;
How many Type 95 trucks were made (approx.)

No, it is Nissan 80. Type 97 is this.

There's another view of this, trying to get a decently sized copy of it at the moment.
