List of Italian Gun Trucks Part 2 (unofficial for now)

[ImportantSimone5]

Hello guys!

In this topic I will group together all the main Italian cannons that have not yet been suggested/implemented in the game, the so-called Autocannons.

A cannon truck is an artillery piece that is moved thanks to a truck, on whose chassis it is fixed. It is a vehicle that found its maximum expression during the two world wars, when they were used above all by the Italians and above all on the various African fronts.

Now the vehicles! (Of course, you are free to help by bringing vehicles you know.)

Im not shure about all, but some of the ones with german guns you mentioned are german crewed, captured vehicles after italy changed sides in 1943.

Yeah they are.
(Not side-changed, but surrended)

The other truck is a Fiat 634N

[ImportantSimone5]

True. I forgot.

[LukTroy]

There’s a chance they mounted the 25 mm Hotchkiss autocannone on the Bianchi Mediolanum, in Libia.
“in Libia fu utilizzato come piattaforma per un autocannone basato su una mitragliera contraerea francese da 25 mm”.
Bianchi Mediolanum - Wikipedia

Yeah I know. Sadly, there is no damn pic of it from what I know. We need to find.
(Also maybe some gun truck with 25 mm and 13.2 mm in AOI).

[LukTroy]

I don’t even care about the 13.2, as the italian TT doesn’t need it. On the other hand, the 25 mm would be quite handy at patching the gap between the CM 52 and AS 42.

True.
I also hope we can find something about the 65/17 on the Fiat 634N.

[LukTroy]

It might have been mounted like this.
It’s a GMC truck with the same 25 mm cannon.

[ImportantSimone5]

Now we just need a pic of it. Or a blueprints or a drawning.

Autocannone da 12.7 su CMP (to check the name).

Autocannone da 12.7 su CMP Ford 15A, the italian GAZ-AAA (DShK).

poll Autocannone da 12.7 su CMP Ford 15A. [image] History. When the Royal Army entered the Second World War in 1940, its ranks lacked anti-aircraft defense vehicles. During the North African Campaign this problem became very evident and in the Libyan workshops some anti-aircraft vehicles were built in a very spartan manner to defend Italian troops from air attacks. The 20 mm Breda gun, known for its excellent performance and its availability in large quantities, was mounted on various truck…

Done.
