Autoblinda AB41
armoured car
A fast, well-armed 4x4 armoured car with steerable axles at both ends so it could reverse at full speed without turning, the AB41 was widely regarded as one of the better Italian armoured vehicles of the war. It served in the desert reconnaissance role and, after 1943, in German hands and even briefly with the postwar Italian and Egyptian armies.
