| Source measurement | — | Although engaging in direct combat is not a function of the Type 82 Command and Communication Vehicle, it has two machine guns for self-defence. A 12.7 mm M2 Browning machine gun is mounted with a gun shield on the roof of the rear section of the vehicle. A 7.62 mm Type 62 machine gun can be attached to the gun mount in front of the passenger's hatch on the front-left section of the roof of the vehicle.[source]Type 82 Command and Communication Vehicle · Characteristics; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage |
