More informationThe P40, with its 75/34 cannon installed on rotating turret and 26 tons, is the most powerful tank in force with the Italian Army during World War II. For the Italian tank of that time, it featured innovative characteristics such as front and sides main body angled plates that were still bolted together instead of welded. It had a reasonable speed, about 40 km/h (25 mph). Designs began in 1940 but development was long and with difficulties. In 1943, the first definitive version was ready for production. With the armistice and Northern Italy German occupation, all P40s were operative with the German Army. About three dozens were ground buried along the Gothic line as small fortress without engines due to supplies difficulties from the struggling war industry. Three P40 divisions were in force with the German Army on the Yugoslavian front and some others in Austria against the Soviet Army.

Fernando P. 2023-05-31 | P40 Típica maqueta de Italeri en la que auna lo mejor con lo obsoleto de su tecnología de moldes, esta maqueta en los ´80´ hubiera sido revolucionaria. Hoy en día se le notan los años aunque aguanta bien el tipo. Pros: Cañón de aluminio muy bueno, fotograbados básicos para la sujeción de los bidones, detalle general bastante bueno, orugas por tramos y eslabones sueltos, sujeto muy raro de ver y única maqueta en plástico de este carro. La otra es de Cry-el y es de... resina y CARÍSIMA (si la encuentras) Contras: Le falta finura en algunos detalles, las orugas aunque correctas aconsejo sustituirlas por la ATL-100 de Friulmodel, el tren de rodaje necesita un par de kilos de lija y masilla, necesitaría un interior de la torreta al menos para dejar la escotilla abierta, idem para el motor... la rejilla trasera deja ver MUCHO espacio vacío. Resumiendo, si te van los italianos este carro es lo que hay, con un poco de amor y trabajo te puede quedar bastante aparente. 6/10 |
