Vehicle History

The AutoBlindo 41 the successor of the AutoBlindo 40 (AB-40) was an armored car build and used by the Regio Esercito, the armored car was praised for his reliability, speed, and manovrability. But like most armored cars the armor was just enough to stop small calliber bullets, the AutoBlindo 41 had two drivers seats allowing it to be driven both foward and backwards. About 650 examples we're build most of which saw service in balkans, the North African campaign and in Italy.
