Something I have not understood. Why should Italy have prepared itself for a war? No country in the world was threatening Italy. It was only Mussolini who wanted to attack other countries in order to take their territory. Only aggression war! But if a country wants to unleash aggressive war must be armed to the teeth with the best modern weapons. If one is going to use force should have the force. Mussolini was only a laughable boaster who was a catastrophe for Italy.
ОтветитьI think its SHITTY.
ОтветитьUS has close calls with Russia, China, Iran etc
We see the obvious truth.
Karma is on your doorstep
One time in warthunder I was driving this, tracks got shot out and I was stuck at a weird angle. I then somehow bounced off over 20 shots while my team kept destroying enemies. Once I finally got my tracks repaired and moved i got sniped by some heavy tank 😂
ОтветитьI was looking for a hull and I found a hull, and hull nose I’m miserable now 🎶
ОтветитьI like the lines of the P40 and P43 designs.
ОтветитьI would not of like being expected to fight in the p26 40 the bolting togeather would of been a nightmare . It might of held up for a little while when the were fighting in Africa against the Somalis . that is until it broke down and spent it all it’s ammunition. Then the soldiers armed ewith clubs are spears simply had to wait until the crew surrendered.
ОтветитьInteresting that they had a such a small automotive industry, yet these days is a country know for their performance automotive industry!
Same with Germany in that it wasn’t hugely automotive then when compared to France and the US but is now.
When you take a Fiat 500 Topollino and give him tracks, then you call that "a tank" :p
Ответить"incapable of significant confrentations with enemy tanks" hmmmm I can think of a few country's near entire tank corp that quote could be referring to 😂😂😂😂
ОтветитьTo be fair to the Italians, their tanks were designed for national defense and not for expeditionary actions like everyone else's.
ОтветитьCan we call them junk like the Japanese tanks! Mini tanks…. Couldn’t battle other countries tanks!
ОтветитьAnyone who ever worked on a 1960's Fiat will tell you there is nothing over-designed, over-engineered or over-built in Italian vehicle design. I'm not saying it doesn't work, it's just that there's no need for welding or rivets if you already have bolts laying around.
While this keeps cars cheaper, military vehicles some times have to go beyond their specifications in a changing combat environment. I tend to believe that most of the issues with Italian cars were that they simply weren't meant for the kind of use they would receive in the US. Nor were Italian tanks designed to face Allied or German heavy tanks. As to breaking down all of the time... that's kind of what Italian machines do when you push their limits.
the p40, one of my fave low tier tanks. it looks like a small and weakly armored vehicle, but it has adequate armor and has a surprisingly heavy shell(an aphe shell that has about the same amount of explosive mass as that of the tiger's shell).
ОтветитьSomething else to consider regarding the small size of their tanks is the size of streets in Italian towns: they can be quite narrow.
ОтветитьThe word is chassis, it is French, they pronounce it as 'shassy', NOT chassy
ОтветитьEvery time I see this tank, I can't help but think of Anchovy from GuP.
ОтветитьItalian tanks are a joke.
ОтветитьLooks like poor man copy of T34 76
ОтветитьItalian tankettes were best they just didn’t deploy them in large enough numbers
ОтветитьTanks for the video.
ОтветитьThe Tiger was NOT a counter to the T34. That where the upgunned PIV and the PV
ОтветитьItaly's resoucres 1940 were ZERO that's why Italy shouldn't have declared war to nobody. Mussolini knew too well that his country was prepared for a war but he declared it anyhow because he thought that Hitler had already won and he wanted to take part to the dividing of the spoiler.
ОтветитьVery interessting view into Italian tankdesign. And what impact the geographical cirunstances have. The Veloce isnt a bad thing for his. purpose.
I guess i will inform myself why italys industry wasnt at a level like germany or other countries in europe. I mean italy can't remain untouched by the industrial revolution..at least imo^^'
Btw: in WT the P40 is fun2play on his tier :D
In appearance, it looks a little like the German Panther.
ОтветитьAh, the Fiasco Insaldo cartone armato P26/40. Has someone mentioned Anchovy already? 😉
ОтветитьI met several Italian prisoners of war in the UK who decided to make their lives here. Unlike Germany (and us) all we wanted was a quiet life. The Italians to grow their grapes and us - anything. Over the 2 or 3 years I met the farmworkers I grew more and more fond of them, so much, so I met their families and quite often an enormous 'spud' would be saved for me. They mostly did not want war, so sad that, like Germany, all it takes is just one man to destroy so many lives.
ОтветитьItaly and Romania would have served their war better by remaining neutral and supplying Germany with materials and oil that could not be attacked by the allies.
ОтветитьThey got War Thunder mobile now better than World Of Tanks Blitz no chat so you don't have to listen to the try hards cry after they charge off unsupported in the middle of an open field and subsequently die then blame the team even though they have 44% win rate did 100 damage and no kills
ОтветитьGermany was not a good ally
Germany coukd have provided italy with a hundred panzers in exchange for components to nake tanks.
Italy was never able to produce a reasonable number of medium tanks
Fascists Italy and heavy tanks don't rhyme
Ответитьso the P43 would basically have been a riveted Panther. sounds pretty solid actually for italy
Ответитьfuel by pizza, tortelini, and ravioli
ОтветитьNowadays it's hard to believe that "lack of a significant automotive industry" applied to Italy not that long ago.
ОтветитьHow many reverse gears did it have?
ОтветитьGlad I stumbled accross ur channel...good vids and a wealth of info for modifying tank model kits...given me some idea thanks
ОтветитьI understand why the Italian Army wanted a specific type of tank for the northern territories. However, the stupidity of their decision become apparent. With the fall of the Auto-Hungarina Empire, Italy no longer had a major enemy that required light tanks that could navigate mountainous terrain. Mussolini considered Yugoslavia to be Italy's primary enemy (and devoted a significant amount of planing to fish the Yugoslavs) so why tenth Italian Army persist in their quest for tankettes that were unsuitable for any other purpose?
Ответитьcan we get a link for people who are already playing war thunder i want the eagle of valor but cant get
ОтветитьIs this the Italian tank that had 5 reverse gears and 1 forward incase of attack from behind?
ОтветитьHey Cone. Could you Imagine making a Video about the Typ 5 Heavy( Typ2605)from WoT? Im really interrested in this Design so Maybach you think about this Idea 😅
ОтветитьP.44 Panthera: Am I a panther? No
ОтветитьBel filmato, analisi corretta e professionale. Grazie.
Ответитьlet's see what he's about?...... allright World wars allright, Tanks, Weeb..... WHAAAAT?!!, Animes WHAAAAT?!!, Girls WHAAAAAT?!!, (ConeOfArc lore's: Son of a Weebs)
Ответить"Looks good, but in action ehhh lol!"
ОтветитьI really enjoy your channel.
Especially the coverage of lesser known vehicles.
I figure you're just the person to direct this question to.
In the opening sequence of this particular video.
I spotted an often used clip of what looks like the idler wheel of a PzKpfw IV D running in reverse . Or is it just me?
I've seen this clip in many videos over the years, elsewhere and yet no one ever seems to mentioned its use.
Trivia trivia😂
