The STB-1 is a Japanese tier 10 medium tank.

In the early 1960s, Mitsubishi started development of a new tank that complied with government requirements for armament and defense. The first two prototypes of the STB-1 were manufactured in September 1969 for trials. In 1970 the prototypes were shown to journalists and participated in a military parade.

The STB-1 is a prototype of well-known Japanese Type 74 main battle tank. It marks the end of the Japanese Medium Tank line, it is a fast semi-accurate medium tank with low but well sloped armor, very high DPM and high penetration, making it excel as a support tank.

In patch 1.5.1, the STB-1 received a much-requested special feature; the hydropneumatic suspension system, which was previously exclusive to the Swedish high tier mediums. This allows the STB-1 to use nearly any hull-down position in the game.

The STB-1 marks the end of its Japanese medium line.
