Good afternoon! Well, we are beginning once again!

Two well liked and very reliable italian vehicles of WWII era, both of SPA (a Fiat's subsidary): TM40 and TL37.

These artillery trucks were the prime movers of the obice da 149 (the former), and obice da 100 (the later).
And also a good truck, Breda 51 Coloniale:

All depicted as they were during the fierce battles of 1942 in the Western Desert.
Thanks to Mike for the excellent source drawings! Cheers.

Thanks for your feedback, guys!
The excellent field performance of the TL37 paved de way for two variants: The light truck AS37 and the armoured car Autoprotetto S37:

AS37 had an outstanding cross country capability and a very long range, its only drawback, a marginal one, is its height. In 1941 S37 was created bolting light armoured plates to the basic chassis. Due to the light nature of the protection, S37 was mainly used in internal protection missions, mainly in Dalmatia and other parts of the occupied Yugoslavia. Cheers.

Good afternoon! Now, the most modern heavy artillery tractor of the Italian army, Breda 40. Sucesor of the old fashionated Breda 32, it had an enclosed cabin, and was a reliable vehicle.

In the second drawing is towing the barrel of the heavy howitzer Obice da 210/22. Cheers.
