Self-propelled M42 da75/18
In the years preceding the Second World War, the Royal Army demonstrated the need for mechanized artillery units capable of supporting infantry and armored units. The 75/18 self-propelled gun was developed on the chassis of the “M” medium tank and proved to be the Italian armored vehicle most feared by the Allies during the conflict. In fact, thanks to its 75mm howitzer installed in the casemate, it proved to be an effective anti-tank weapon capable of destroying even the most powerful and heavily armored English and American tanks. In addition to its good firepower, much superior to that of the M-13 and M-14 tanks, the “Semovente” was appreciated for its low profile which made it more difficult to spot and its overall good driving performance. It was used by the Royal Army in Africa and on Italian territory and subsequently, confirming its good characteristics, by some departments of the Wehrmacht after 8 September 1943.
