The main gun was replaced by a wooden dummy of a Tye 97 5,7 cm Tank Gun. Instead of a commanders cupiola a rotating periscope in an armored cap, a Type 98 0,75 m Rangefinder and an odopraph to evaluate the range from the battery baseline were placed in the turret. Additional wireless communication equipment for direct contact with the company command post was added, too. At least one prototype was planned in 1944 but further infos are not available.
