Carro Armato M15/42

World War II

The Carro Armato M15/42 was the last Italian medium tank produced during World War II. Based on the earlier M13/40 and M14/41 tanks, it incorporated lessons from the North African Campaign. It was intended as a stopgap until the heavier P26/40 could be produced in sufficient numbers. Although designed for North Africa, it instead served in Italy and Yugoslavia with the German Wehrmacht.

Vehicle type: Medium tank
Based on: M13/40 and M14/41 medium tanks
