That's the Japanese Type 94 TK tankette. Here is another shot of the vehicle captured at Battle of Okinawa.

Bomb aimers briefing 27 January 1944 - Berlin. Indicates two bomb loads for operation. Gives weights, preselection and false height settings, Window as well as tactics. On the reverse states spoof attack by Mosquito and mixed Paramatta and Wananui marking, route marking and target marking. Goes on with bombing instructions.

Target indicator - Wikipedia

Marking of targets was carried out using the following methods:
  • "Newhaven" – target marking blind using H2S, then with visual backup marking
  • "Parramatta" – target marking by blind-dropped ground markers, prefixed with "Musical" when the bombers were guided by Oboe
  • "Wanganui" – target marking by blind-dropped sky markers when ground concealed by cloud, prefixed with "Musical" when Oboe-guided

The three code words were initially chosen by asking three Bomber Command personnel in the operations room where they came from. One was from Newhaven, England, one from Parramatta, Australia, and one from Wanganui, New Zealand.

Oboe was usually carried by Pathfinder de Havilland Mosquitoes.
