It's a significant piece of military history, showcasing Italy's approach to armoured warfare during the conflict.Developed in 1941, the Semovente L40 was built on the L6/40 light tank chassis. This base provided a sturdy and reliable platform for the vehicle.Its primary armament was a 47mm 47/32 gun, effective against enemy infantry and light armoured vehicles.The Semovente L40's primary role was to provide infantry support and anti-tank capabilities. Despite its smaller size compared to other self-propelled guns of the era, it was appreciated for its mobility and ease of production.The armour protection of the Semovente L40 was modest, reflecting its role as a support vehicle rather than a front-line combat unit. With a crew of two or three, the vehicle required effective coordination between the driver, gunner, and, if present, a commander/loader.The Semovente L40 saw action primarily on the Eastern Front and in North Africa, where its performance was generally well-regarded, especially in its role supporting infantry units.As a piece of military history, the Semovente L40 da 47/32 is a notable example of Italian armoured vehicle design and is interesting to historical researchers and military enthusiasts.Model Kit Dimensions: -Completed Model Length: 10.9cmModel Scale: 1:35What's Included?Unassembled Model KitPhoto Etched and Acetate PartsLink-and-Length TracksSet of Decals (for 4 Versions)Instructions SheetOriginal Retail Box with Dimensions: Length: 34.5cm, Height: 24cm, Width: 4.5cm.What's Not Included?Paints, Adhesive and Paintbrushes are NOT Included.
