Japanese Type 95. Arguably one of the worst tanks involved in WW2. The Type 95 performed brilliantly against the Chinese, who had no tanks of their own and very inferior weapons, but once it came up against western forces they were annihilated. Any force with an anti-armour capability of any kind was able to defeat them, and there are even stories of U.S Marines completely destroying them with concentrated machine gun fire.
