The Italian assault guns with the strongest AT ability is this one: Semovente 75/46 M43. It has a 75/46 gun modified from AA gun, not the German Pak 40. The history is, all the dozens of 75/46 M43 were quipped to German units fought in Italy in 1944.

New tank from the US Army. M3A3 light tank. It is the intermedium version between M3A1 and M5, with the hull similar to M5. I prepared the US, British, and Free French units.

M4 Sherman composite type, or the so called "hybrid" type. They have a cast front armor and welded on other part of the hull. It's a cheaper option than the whole welded hulls. I prepared the US army and Australian army of this tank.

Hi all. As a fan of Italian weapons during WW2, I did some research of the back bone of the Italian tank troops. The M13/40 medium tank. Actually it includes three production series with some differences on their external layout. So I prepared all these three icons for them.
The 1st series have the full length fenders, and foot steps on both side of the vehicle. 150 built.
The second series have half fenders, only on the anterior part. The foot step only on the left side under the door hatch. 150 built.
The third series have a rectangular "bump" on top of the turret. No foot step on these vheicles. 410 built.

I know I just posted this tank several days before. But since I remade the M13/M14 series, I remade this M14/41 with 47/40 gun as well. Both mainland Italy and North Africa versions.

Here is a rare light tank. Skoda T-11. It is the LT-35 tank equipped with a new 37mm gun (the same gun in LT-38). Bulgarian Army has about a dozen of them.

Awesome work! It's great that you give a little background info on the units you create.

This is one "what if" unit for the Free French army. The M4A4 tank with an enlarged turret and a 75mm SA-50 long gun. Although this prototype appeared in late 1940s, since every technic here is not beyond WWII level, I prepared this one and we can use as a "bonus" unit.

Another French post war Sherman variant. M4A1 hull with a FL-11 turret, which is the same turret in AMX-13 and Panhard EBR. The gun is still the SA-50. France built about serval dozen of them and later sold to Egypt. In Egyptian army they saw war in 1956.

A Russian tank destroyer project: Su-57B. It uses the Su-76M hull, a 57mm zis-2 gun, and a new diesel engine. The armor is very thin, about 20mm. The project got cancelled because of the delay of the engine.
