Mitsubishi Type 73 Light Truck Shīn .began production in 1996 as Mitsubishi Motors began to slowly phase out the Type 73 Light Truck Kyūs from production and from selective service in the JSDF, using the frame of the Mitsubishi Pajero as a basis. The Type 73 Light Truck Shīn can be mounted with various heavy machine guns and anti-tank missile launchers. But like its predecessor, the Shīn Light Trucks can mount the Sumitomo M2 machine guns and, for the first time, the Sumitomo M249 Light Machine Gun.
