Imagine in WW2 the Germans ordering some tanks from their Italian allies. And they receive the first shipment of CV 33. "Oh so cool, they shipped us a scale model before delivering the finished products!"
@Mario Even with the anti tank rifles the little cv33 could not even compete with the T26, so even if sometimes it was used in a antitank role it was not effective by any mean
@@regidelthegeneralthatzappe4469 wrong, the 20 mm of a L3 CC was able to penetrate a max of 30 mm. The max armor of a T26 was made by 25 mm. So a L3 CC was able to send to the hell a T26 withouth big problems.
@@regioammiraglio7500 And just how many L3/33 CCs were produced and when? "A Small number of L3/33s had their machine guns replaced by a 20mm AT-gun...." "Only saw limited action in Tunisia in Late 1942" and the Italian army adopted it in 1940, by which time T-26 and BT Tanks were nearing the ends of their production and life cycles. Even if they had been produced earlier in larger numbers and fought the Soviets, as far as I remember, the Italians already had similar tanks which were orders of magnitudes better than the L3/33 CC for an anti-armour role. Not to mention that they kind of had their plates full fighting in North Africa and the Mediterranean against the British, some French, and later the Americans.
раз, два. солнце, свет. старания добродетеля. правда, долг. так точно мой господин! мы немецкие инженеры! наша работа лучше всех! Мы строим, создаём, ломаем, производим. И все идет во благо Европейскому союзу. Ради мира!
Smart money's on replica. No museum in the world with an actual CV would allow someone to paint up one of their nearly 100 year old tanks like this. Besides it looks too new to be a real CV.
With that paint job it looks like it was made out of cardboard boxes. Being Italian it probably was. Just arm your anti tank guys with tin openers and save on ammo.
