It is Renault Armored Car in 1920s. It is utterly different car.

They are Marmon-Herrington armored cars. They were captured from the Dutch on Java.

Re: Type 95 Truck and Other Odd Vehicles
I can't say it does, the Sd.Kfz 221 had much more sloped armour and was more angular than this machine.

1. Sumida/Isuzu Type 93 car on the right.
2. Here is a Isuzu Type 94 with a trailer, which seems to be a makeshift platform for a AA gun.
From eBay seller Bannjyou

Daihatsu "FRA" ?? Had a two-cylinder V-type air-cooled 1200cc engine, front-wheel drive system. (?)
Okamoto??? 1200cc V-type two-cylinder engine, only three prototypes.

Re: Type 95 Truck and Other Odd Vehicles
These cars are for the competition of the successor to Type 95 passanger car. Some motorcar companies like Daihatsu, Okamoto, Kurogane developed new cars. But, none of them was adopted and they ended only with trials.

Re: Type 95 Truck and Other Odd Vehicles
Kurogane developed a successor to the type 95? Can you tell me more about that one.

Re: Type 95 Truck and Other Odd Vehicles
Kurogane developed an improved model of Type 95. But, it could not fulfill the requirements of the Army that it must be cheaper and lighter than Type 95.
P.S.
To be exact, it is not a competition of the successor, but the cheaper and lighter model than Type 95. It was called Light 4WD.
