Carro Armato 5 ton

Ces deux modèles de chars furent expérimentés en vue de remplacer éventuellement les chenillettes L3. A partir de ces tentatives, les Italiens donneront naissance au char léger L6/40. La première version, le Carro d'Assalto, était armé d'un canon de 37 mm L/26 et d'une mitrailleuse de 6.5 mm en tourelle; alors que le second modèle, le Carro Cannone, était armé du même canon mais en casemate, alors que la tourelle plus petite accueillait une mitrailleuse.

These two models of tanks were tested in order to replace possibly the L3 tankettes. From these attempts, the Italians will give rise to the light tank L6/40. The first version, Carro d' Assalto, was armed with a gun of 37 mm L/26 and a machine-gun of 6.5 mm in turret; whereas the second model, Carro Cannone, was armed with the same gun but in casemate, whereas the smaller turret accomodated a machine-gun.
