Following the defeat at the Battle of Vittorio Veneto, Austria-Hungary capitulated in the First World War. Under the terms of the armistice that came into effect on November 4th 1918, Italy received a number of territories, completing its unification. This is why November 4th is celebrated both as National Unity Day and Armed Forces Day in memory of the victory that completed the reunification of Italian lands, which started in the mid-19th century.

The P40 “G.C. Leoncello” (rank II) was developed in 1940 for the North African front, but only saw its first combat in 1943 in Italy itself, fighting on the side of the Axis powers (the “Leoncelli” group fought for the Italian Social Republic). The P40 is a well-balanced tank in terms of its characteristics, with good APHE and HEAT shells, effective armor and solid mobility.
The M43 “G.C.Leoncello” (rank III) is a compact but hard-hitting tank, featuring a 105 mm cannon and a unique camouflage pattern from the “Leonchello” group. Its HEAT round with 120 mm of penetration is capable of punching through any opponent at its rank!

This can HIGHLY depend on the monitor you’re using. I have one older 1080p monitor without HDR and one newer 1440p monitor with HDR capabilities and the color looks different on the monitors.
I took a photo of the flag with my phone that i hope shows the difference at least to some degree (because again, it can depend on what colors your monitor can show), i have put the flag so that half of the red part is on my HDR monitor and half is on my older monitor, i have not changed the image in any way and only dragged the browser window so that it’s halfway between the monitors.
Joke take: maybe because the Irish are successors of Rome. just as Italy does. :P
Serious take: Ohh, thanks for letting me know it may be a problem with monitors.
It is really bizarre to see that red can be orange when it meets monitor differences.
