The E-75 was the natural choice to be the standard heavy tank and to be used as a replacement of the Tiger II and Jagdtiger, due to its firing power and its well armoured body.

The Ho-Ri II was a Japanese adaptation of the E-50 chassis, modified into a fast and mobile tank destroyer for the Imperial Japanese Army (I.J.A.). Unlike its heavier counterpart based on the E-75 chassis, this version prioritized speed and maneuverability while still retaining high firepower. Equipped with the same 12cm naval-derived gun as the Ho-Ri II (E-75 variant), it provided formidable anti-armor capabilities, albeit with slightly reduced protection.

A total of 380 units were produced, and the Ho-Ri II saw combat during Operation Coronet in March 1947, particularly in the Shonan Coast battles against advancing U.S. Army forces.
