Development of the system began in 1976, missile trials were conducted in 1982, and a complete prototype system delivered in 1985. The first units entered service with the JGSDF in 1989. The system consists of a launcher, and a laser designator mounted on a heavy tripod. The Ministry of Defense Technical Research and Developmental Institute has conducted testing on a new Anti-tank missile platform that will eventually replace the Type 87 in front-line service. The project's code name is known in the JSDF as the Shin Chu-MAT.
