Veloce e Furioso | Autoblinda AB40 feat.

The AB40 armored car was the most innovative reconnaissance vehicle of the Regio Esercito (Eng: Royal Italian Army) developed before the Second World War. FIAT and Ansaldo collaborated to respond to two requests for new armored cars: the first was to replace the old Lancia 1ZM, FIAT-Terni-Tripoli and FIAT 611 armored cars in service in the Royal Italian Army; whilst the second, was to replace the Lancia 1ZM in service in the Polizia dell’Africa Italiana or PAI (Eng: Italian Police in Africa).

what a beautiful vehicle it is, I love the autoblinda!

[@lorenzopollocaffe6277]

For sure, one thing we (italians) were good at was designing and building armoured cars, bombers, and boats

[@BufusTurbo92]

TEC's italian pronounciation: *exists*
Italian ears: *implode*

[@graemes813]

Very good thanks. Just to note that there is an AB 40, with 20mm gunned L/6 turret, at the South African Military History Museum in Johannesburg. If I remember correctly, it was captured in North Africa.

Hey Brother , in Our language the letter " c " Is not pronounced as the Spanish "s" but We pronounce It as yours "chee" ...So Esercito Is not "Esersito" but "Esercheeto" Just to help ...

[@captainfactoid3867]

TEC has a great voice for these kind of things

[@kimjanek646]

I hate that guy. I unsubbed because he just keeps talking forever instead of making a point. He’s voice also bores me to death. But hey as long as others enjoy him 🤷🏻‍♂️
I just wanted to check if I could handle the video but unfortunately I can’t 😂

[@artyomascaron3985]

wait a sec, the ab41/42 were used extensively in africa as well, not jsut the machinegun armed ab40.

[@TanksEncyclopediaYT]

The AB41 did see service in Africa, and you can see all of that in the AB41 video from earlier we made.
The AB42 was a prototype that never saw service.
The AB43, while built and seeing service, never saw service in Africa and mostly served under German colors.

[@artyomascaron3985]

@@TanksEncyclopediaYT ah my bad, when Tec mentioned the ab41 at the end of the video I thought this video was covering all the different versions... and I also confused the ab42 with the 41. thanks for pointing that out. I forgot there were ab40s with autocannons.

[@CreateCleverKids]

well put together

[@rudolphantler6309]

Would any sort of AB40 rare type be a best addition for a War Thunder 1.0 SPAA?
Preferrably with the extra top MG. Either only early (preseries) model, or an exceptional upgraded variant.

0:49 Why is there a diagonal chess board around the turret?

[@manuelmaggioli9077]

Interesting Video....

I also appreciate a good silhouette...

We need a video on Oswald please

[@TanksEncyclopediaYT]

Hello Tantrum,
We already have a very good article on the Oswald and it does not look likely that will be turning it into a video. Check out our website

Magic collaboration with European Canadian lol Warthunder moment

[@mathewkelly9968]

Jazz up the armour layout you could still get good service out of this vehicle today ........ and then not much jazz needed

Wenn Herr Raths eine Wette verloren hat, gäbe man ihm so einen Rezensionsauftrag. 😅
Danke für die Warnung vor dem Buch! Es wird definitiv nicht gekauft.
Und jetzt ab in die Ägäis. 🫠
