The Type 25 RCV, short for Reconnaissance Combat Vehicle, is the next generation reconnaissance vehicle of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force. It shares its chassis with the Type 16 MCV and with the Type 24 AWCV and Type 24 MM, all members of the Common Tactical Wheeled Vehicle family, and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries manufactures and maintains it. Its formal name was announced in 2025 at the Fuji Firepower Review, when it was introduced into deployment. Its procurement started in 2025 with 9.1 billion yen for the first six vehicles, and 116 to 120 are planned in all. A semi-spherical dome over the antenna and a rear mast housing electro-optics identify it.
