Due to the fact that the Chinese light tanks have proven to be insufficient, the army leadership had been studied, which of the existing tanks
could be improved.
In this investigation it was found that the CI-32L only may serve as a training vehicle, because he has no development potential. The TM38L proved
as too slow and unreliable. Thus only remained the TM38M, and fortunately he also has a corresponding potential for development.

The Tung Meng Company get the contract to develop a revised design. The result of this redesign is the LT-15. This light tank is available in
different versions. Firstly as infantry support tank (Version G with a 75mm cannon), as an armored full chain reconnaissance vehicle (Version H
with the turret of the Liebao-II) and as "pure" light tank (Version F).
