The Type 95 "Kurogane" (Japanese: 九十五式黒金 Kyujugo-shiki kurogane; English: Type 95 Black Metal) was a Japanese reconnaissance vehicle designed during the mid-late 1930s and used during World War II. It was the only completely Japanese-designed recon car ever used by the Japanese Army.

Edit
In Battlefield 1942, the Kurogane is Japan's standard light vehicle, having been added in a patch to replace the earlier Kubelwagen issued to the IJN. It spawns regularly at certain IJN controlled flags. It is fast and small, but has very poor armor, being vulnerable to hand grenades and small-arms fire, and has little protection for its passengers. It can have 2 players on board: the driver and a passenger beside the driver.

It can have 3 people aboard: one driver, one passenger (capable of using all of their infantry weapons) and one gunner (manning an M1919 Browning).
