Italian MBTs / War Thunder 

- Ariete can be considered ''obsolete'' - gives 7k sl stock repair cost

0:44 Oh come on, no spoilers, I have only reached Operation Barbarossa

Lower italian repair costs in top tier they have bad armor and now everyone has a powerful dart

"Italy was on the losing side of the war" well yes and no...

"And thats why the Ariete is sometimes considered obsolete" Why, because gaijin got rid of its main selling point, the best round in the game, by giving DM 53 to the leo 2a6 because Germany suffers? In all seriousness, the Italian tech tree is very fun to plan but really needs some love at top tier, might I suggest Dardo IFVs or a further upgraded Ariete?

Finally a video talking about Italy, it was about time. Good job.

*DOLLAR PLAYS HAS JOINED THE CHAT*

We need an IFV gaijin, like the Freccia

WE WANT THE DARDO, THE IFV

the Italian tech tree is in general really nice, filled with a lot of decently capable and fun vehicles.

you will add the italian Dardo IFV and the Freccia based on the Centauro in the next major update

Please put the italian Dardo, Dardo with 60mm, Freccia, Centauro Draco, B2 centauro, centauro 155/39, M60 of LEONARDO and P43 bis

next up; climbing the ranks: Italian IFVs! oh wait.....

I really like playing the Italian IFV we have in the game

what about italian IFVs?

I am an Italian main in-game. I am in love with their anti-air and TD line and even their MBT line is perfect for my playstyle. Survivor ability is definitely an issue but firepower/mobility/spotting capabilities are still excellent. They are almost as good as Germans.

Little correction Bruce, the new Ariete being worked on won’t have ERA, but will have many new tweaks and improvements that will allow it to close the gap, such as APS, new Thermals and improved armour.

The Italian tanks had the P40s and Semoventes that were feared. The Italians has American tanks after WW2 that were modified. Then the OF-40s came along. Love those things.

I'm Italian, thanks for making this video, also do you plan to add the centauro 2?

Plz add the centauro 2, the centauro 76/62 draco, the centauro 155/39 porcospino, the palmaria, the freccia and at least the dardo 👉👈

"uaglió! Cariga u pennette!" * loads apfsds * "ma tu si tardo? I penne Barilla AOOOO"

Fun fact (if i'm not wrong): italy poland and Spain have made a team for build a new mbt.

The pizza CyberTruck is the greatest MBT

Italy is still missing a lot of vehicles for both ground forces, naval and the air force tech trees, or existing vehicles don't have full combat capabilities, like the SIDAM not having NVS, or the M42 Contrareo not being beltfed or the italian 47mms not having HEAT/HESH available. At least for ground forces things like the VBM Freccia or the Dardo IFV are missing, armored gun trucks could be added as well along more AA platforms (R3 needs to be moved) Also the Naval techtree is just filled with more of the same ships over and over, the Coastal Tree doesn't even have OTO-Melara autocannons except for the Sparviero, you'd expect italy to have plenty of 127mm Vulcano or 76mm Super Rapido, but no, the same patrol ship with 40mm bofors over and over, at least the top tier has Nettunos. And a Rate of Fire buff to the Breda-SAFATs would be welcome, the US M2HB already fires at an unrealistic fire rate of 1000rpm, irl it only went up to 600, might as well buff others.

Glad they're covering the most powercreeped vehicles in the game, still my favourite MBTs.

When the pizza bias is too powerful gaijin finally made a video for it

As someone that has played Italy for a good while (still haven't reached high ranks tho) i have to say the air and the tanks are amazing if you know how to play them. Most tanks are fast and teach you how to flank the enemy and also can count on a high firepower. Italy surely is hard to master, especially if you're new to the game but trust me when I say to you that they're way funnier to play than most mainstream nations

Italy top tier Nowdays has new nickname!: "Why even play italy when you can play germany"

Marco, load the breadstick! APFSDS? *Breadstick, I don’t remember stuttering*

Ehhh siamo potenti noi, non vedo l’ora di provare il nuovo aggiornamento 🇮🇹🇮🇹

when you're playing an italian MBT with no FPE researched and a hit lights you on fire: *il mare eterno nella mia anima starts playing*

Gib new Italian vehicles pls! I think everyone would love to see Freccia, Dardo, VBA ifvs; more OF-40 modifications: Thetis, mk.3, PRTL, Leone; C-13 variants; Centauro 105 serial variants and 2nd generation; WW2 guntrucks and other interesting vehicles)

The proposed upgrade is also involving combining both the PSO Tipo II and WAR add-on composite kits, and outfitting it with a more powerful engine to make it more than a 64-ton paperweight. This upgrade (from my knowledge) is planned to enter service in 2025.

3:28 actually it was United Arab Emirates that used it not the saudi arabia

Freccia, dardo, leone, spaa cheetah prtl, ariete hitfact mk2, OF-49 mk3/mk2a1... I could go on but I plead you look into these please and thank you, keep up the great work so far Warthunder☺️

What about italian navy crew voice lines?

Nice video 👍🏽

Ha-go:"I have the most under rated armor". L3 33/c:"Behold... ...my soft armor like paper.

I would absolutely LOVE if they added italian IFVs like the dardo/ freccia. Sure spike missiles are very strong, but just make direct fire without the fancy fire and forget

I'm loving these new visuals.

Ok how about you add italian original vehichles.

Man the Background music is so good

Italy made a concept of the c2 ariete, never gone to production, it would be cool to have a new 10.7 italian MBT for the next major update, you can also add the AIF freccia equipped with 2 atgms to counter small millimeter light tanks, and as wargaming did the heavy italian tech tree

ariete : i have low armor, but high penetration. leo2a6 : poor tank...

What if the game didn't crash everytime you time you die on console

I wish the P43 and the P43bis tanks to be added into the game if possible. Italy needs heavy tanks.

"Do you like using Italy Top Tier?" Haha, L3 go zooooooom.

FIX SERVERS, FREEZE AND FPS DROPS

I wish that tanks had something of this firing control system, something like the planes has with the ballistic computer...the most sophisticated tank in the world and we can only use its NVD and laser rangefinder

If you kind folks at Gaijin would, please add the VCC 80 Dardo IFV to Italy. It'd be an excellent addition to their roster, in keeping with their fast and punchy play style, while providing them further options at top-tier as well.

I played 10 matches today, and 7 of them crashed mid game

I'm still researching the Centauro ROMOR for my 9.0 lineup, but after that it's on to the Preserie, so I'll finally have my first top-tier MBT. I really love Italian vehicles, and I've done a ton of research on them since deciding to "main" Italy in War Thunder. Speaking of the M47, the one in the Italian tech tree is actually the Spanish M47E2 using an Italian gun, not the actual M47 tanks produced by Italy. You can tell by the track armor, only the Spanish had the ones with sharp angles, whereas the Italians kept the curved ones like on the original M47 and M60. Not like I ever expect Gaijin to correct that mistake, as Italy has been put on the back burner for a long time, just thought I'd point it out once again.

Germany: Just throw on some tracks! Russia: Put angled armour komrad, that always works USA: Put armour EVERYWERE Italy: TO HELL WITH ARMOUR

Yes, you shoul'd think about adding IFVs DARDO and FRECCIA in the next update, and we are Also about to star production of a new generation centauro, so Keep that in mind... just saying ;) Anyways, yes guys you should think about improving a bit the italian top tier, because nowadays we are so obsolete and badly equipped even if you confront us with america, or germany, or england... we are making some serious spaghetti things now. But keep on going gaijin, you are doing a nice job

I like using Italian MBTs from a distance, because the armor is subpar. Thought its hard to do that on most maps... because they aren't big enough.

So OF-40 is basically a leopard, but it has higher br, because statistics.

Hey guys love the video is there anyway you can make it to where all the Jaguars if they have a bomb load they can get Interceptor spawn because it's really hard to get off the Runway with a full payload

Overall the Italian Tech Tree is pretty fun to play although they are lacking some in Vehicles and their ridiculous repair costs makes it somewhat ignored, especially their Rank IV Italian Fighters.Can Italy get some love?Lower the Repair Costs and that's just the thing I need for Italy.

my favourite ariete is the preserie variant because of the dm33 and with decent armour

I mean the P43s would be a nice addition to the game to help flush out the 3rd rank with some actual italian desigs

Can u guys add a button where we can switch the sound fx of the new machine gun sound fax in Air Battles coz that would be epic

My favorite version of the italian mtb is the r3

Dardo would be nice B2 as well Maybe a C2 if they get their hands on it, and add 11.0 Not the Draco SPAAG, that'd be broken

What a wonderfull game where you can also play Italian tanks! I hope they add the Dardo soon!

Gonna play the M47 105/55 and R3 with 2 recoilless rifles and then get to the OF40. Good timing

Why all vehicles look like from gta3 in spectate mode and sometimes while playing them, but.... This update solved a lot crashes and increased my FPS! And now I can finally play at Low settings, thanks so much dev team!

gaijin moment

I will we ever see the maus tank come back to the game along with the e100

Can’t wait to get the T55E1

Yes

Add: Dardo, Freccia, b2 centauro, ariete with the new next update, m60, Oto C 13, first prototype of the p40, semovente 149/90

Could there possibly be a video on the Leopards?

This year the first prototype of Ariete AMV will be presented to the army. The mid life upgrade should make the Ariete enough capable for the next 10 years then we will throw it away.

Video idea: roket tank destroyers triathlon, or early whealed cars triathlon

Gaijin Entertainment more like Gaijin

as a italian, i would like to drive the new born Centauro 2, the tiny dardo tank and the upcoming Ariete 2, now in development

That pizza goKart is truly the best MBT of all

Pizza=Delicious That means Italy Machine=Delicious

Ah yes the armored fiats. Truly pieces of masterfull engineering

hey gaijin any plans on warthunder for reaching 100k online players in one sitting i mean it is a milestone for the game ( soon tho cus ive seen that there sometimes 80k players online so i was just wondering)

Secondo me non sarebbe male aggiungere finalmente il pezzo da 90" e il Freccia

About to finish the whole Italian tech tree both air and ground due to how little the amount of vehicles there are and am SL broke due to how expensive they are.

Question, will there ever be a trailer with Highway To the Dangerzone?

The highest B.R italian vehicle I have at all, is the 2 Fiat armored cars, 6614 and Aubl, and well they are good, but I am just trying to on and off progress further

Everyone: wE W@nT DaRd0!1! Gaijin: I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that

will you add the dardo and the freccia for italian army?

I play on xbox and every time I try to get into a plane in ground rb the game crashes. This needs to be patched

This looks cool

t90/t80: my armor is impenetrable ariete: haha

tbh my favorite used one has to be the normal C1 Ariete

Ariete is honestly way underrated, it's probably the MBT I perform best in and the turret traverse really helps you getting out of trouble or sending a shot downrange just a tad quicker than your opponent

Ariete (P) would be fun..... If I didn’t have to use stock heat in constant uptiers to 10.7

As someone who grinded italy as their first TT back when the best tanks were the 2A5 and long before Russian tank smap i was expecting a tank that had the least ammount of armor but the most powerfull shell in the game but once i got into top tier a year has passed and something like the 2A6 started to exist with DM53 making the only reason to grind italy get thrown into the garbage. It would be nice for italy to get something else than another ariete they are by far the worst tanks in the game right now after most other nations mbt's got thier high pen ammo added. There is no point of playing a glass cannon now when other nations glass cannons have accual protection and good optics

Enhance the penetration of the Italian 75mm APs that makes it worth seeing level 3.3 tanks penetrate only 79 mm of armor, when the minimum thickness of armor and 80 mm lateral or front of any wagon. Above all note that M4 has 91 mm of penetration with a speed of 500 m/s and instead the Italian urination is 79 mm of penetration with 630 m/s of speed. the Chi-Nu has 103 drilling with its 75mm gun (which is the same in length as the Italian one) with a speed of 668 m/s!!!! So at least the Italian 75mm must have 90mm of drilling. and don't say it has HEAT that pierces 100 mm that hurt like ammunition.

I am currently playing out the Italian tree, been quite fun so far but i am only at 6.0.

Will there be more addition to the tank destroyer line for italy in the coming future

nice video

Ariete da un sacco di tempo ma ancora funziona, e anche bene

i love italian top tier lineup
