Semovente 75/18: 765 built. could also appear at El-Alamein and in Tunisia. the only italian SPG at the time that had a chance fighting of allied heavier tanks. we need this thing.
If we ever get an italy map i think these tanks would be cool, however the number of the vehciles constructed is very low, and they werent always used by the italians:
"The Semovente 105/25 was an Italian tank destroyer in use during World War II. It was constructed by mounting a 105 mm gun that was 25 calibers long (hence the name) in a widened chassis from a M15/42 tank. 30 were built by Fiat-Ansaldo and delivered in 1943 before the Italian surrender in September that year. After the surrender the German forces took them over and used them under the designation Sturmgeschütz M43 mit 105/25 853(i) and they also built 60 more Semovente 105/25s. This vehicle is considered the best AFV Italy produced during the war."
P40: "Despite its shortcomings, the P40 was the only Italian tank design that was comparable to Allied and German medium tanks as they appeared in the middle of the war. With a weight of around 25-30 tonnes, the P40 was designated as a 'heavy' tank in Italy, but by contemporary international standards, it was a medium tank (situation quite similar to the Panzer IV)." However only aobut 100 were built and then use by the germans at anzio for example. nothing for north afrika.
