Aculally the one on the right is a M1A1 Abrams. You see I live for tanks and I can tell what tanks are what. But I'm still studying on the older ones now that I now a bunch of the new ones. Wait there are two realy odd tanks under the Jap and the M1A1.
What are those. I must of mist a few during the resurch.

The tanks in the movie are called Type-90 MBT (Main Battle Tank) and is a Japanese equivalent of the US's M1A2 Abrams. It looks similar to the Leopard 2 tank of Germany and has the same 120mm gun as both the Abrams and Leopard 2.

Konmai put the 90 and the 74 on they're website! http://www.konami.co.jp/th/micro_ir/combat/lineup/index.html

The cost is 5980 Yen or $49.94 USD same as the other tanks, to bad toyeast is going to jack it up to a extra 20bux.
