A Century of Italian Armored Cars / Una secolo di autoblindate in Italia

Encyclopedic work dedicated to Italian armored cars, divided into three parts. The first part is dedicated to the doctrinal classification of the subject and to the operational use of wheeled combat vehicles. In the second part all the vehicles built both adopted and tested by the Italian Army from 1912 to the present day are described chronologically, i.e. armored cars, protected trucks, vans and crawlers, half-tracks and trucks.

Each model is illustrated with several black and white and color photos (mostly unpublished), technical drawings on a constant scale and a summary of the features and services available. Text, captions and tabs are bilingual.

Italian Armoured & Reconnaissance Cars 1911-1945 (Osprey)

The first Italian armoured cars were used in the war in Libya in 1911-12 against the Ottoman Empire. With few tanks being developed, the Italians relied instead on the development of more mobile armoured cars like the Ansaldo Lancia 1 Z, during World War I, but post-war the army, focusing on the Alpine battlegrounds of Italy's northern borders, did not consider armoured cars suitable for reconnaissance duties.

The experience of the Spanish Civil War would provide the much needed last push for the Italians to develop modern armoured cars.
The result were the famous AB 41-43 models, which fought against the British in North Africa and Marshall Tito's forces in Yugoslavia, along with other vehicles such as the AS 36 light armoured car.

Using detailed colour plates and contemporary photographs, this book examines the development of the Italian armoured car in the two world wars and the inter-war years, from the deserts of North Africa to the slopes of the Alps.
