Скачать или смотреть Type 96 25 mm — Japan’s Carrier Anti Aircraft Workhorse WW2 Visual Archive

The Type 96 25 mm anti-aircraft gun was Imperial Japan’s primary light AA weapon during World War II — widely mounted on carriers, cruisers, destroyers, and land emplacements.
Simple, reliable, and compact, the Type 96 defended fleet decks from low-level air attack, including dive-bombers and torpedo planes that threatened Japan’s crucial carrier groups.

Introduced in 1936, the Type 96 saw service across the Pacific — from carrier decks to island batteries. While lighter than Allied counterparts, its high rate of fire and twin/triple mounts made it a common sight on Japanese ships and coastal defenses.
This cinematic short focuses on the Type 96’s mechanical detail and naval role, using an authentic reference image animated with subtle parallax and period audio to recreate its deck presence.
