Command and Communications (or "C2") vehicles provide critical situational awareness for ground commanders and accompanying forces so most modern armies of the world field some form of the type. This is why, in the 1970s, Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force (JGSDF) authorities commissioned for such a vehicle. While both 4x4 and 6x6 vehicles were trialed, the 6x6 form was the preferred model. Further work resulted in the "Type 82" Command and Communications Vehicle which still serves the JGSDF today (2017).
