I don't totally agree. Although it might be possible to convert the Daihatsu when you need it during event, it would require you stock quite some rare weapons beforehand. In particular, 12cm 30-tube Rocket Launcher is unbuildable. The easiest way to obtain it would be having a lot of Chitose or Chiyoda kai-4 and kai-5 (i.e. Carrier Kai and Kai-Ni). Also, it is not easy to build 25mm Single Autocannon Mount and 12.7mm Single Machine Gun Mount too.

So if you plan to have an amphibious tank, please prepare the required number of weapons ASAP even though you are not going to upgrade soon. You will need 6 pieces of 25mm Single Autocannon Mounts, 8 pieces of 12cm 30-tube Rocket Launchers, a few 12.7mm Single Machine Gun Mounts, transport drum canisters and some 7.7mm Machine Guns. (The only easy equipments on the list are drums and 7.7mm Machine Gun, the gun can be obtainable from a lot of ships right away, and drums are not difficult to obtain...)

Also, when the 12cm 30-tube Rocket Launchers are going to be consumed during improvement, use guaranteed success.

I have to retreat my comment. The amphibious tank is available as quest award now...
