Officially entering service in 2002, it provided modern reconnaissance, transport, and patrol support. The vehicle was used, among other operations, during UN peacekeeping missions in Iraq in 2004, and it is still actively used in Japan today—both for military purposes and during rescue and humanitarian missions.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eModel scale: 1\/72 – perfect for diorama and military model collections\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCountry of use: Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePeriod of use: modern era (since 2002)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Fujimi (well-known for quality and precision in details)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eComponents: detailed sprues, realistically reproduced armament, armor, and vehicle shape.
