The Carro Armato P26 / 40 was an Italian heavy tank from the Second World War. The first prototypes were built in 1942, and serial production continued in the period 1942-1943. In total, about 100 examples of this vehicle were built. The Carro Armato P26 / 40 was powered by a FIAT V12 Spa 342 engine with 330 HP. The vehicle is armed with a single 75mm Ansaldo L / 34 tank gun and 2 Breda mod. 38 cal. 8 mm.
Design work on Carro Armato P26 / 40 started as early as 1940, but due to problems with the engine and suspension, the first prototypes were not built until 1942. What's more, despite the proud title of a "heavy tank", the Carro Armato P26 / 40 was not equal to the armor or the effectiveness of the main armament of the German or Soviet tanks bearing such a name. In fact, it was a medium tank with average armor by the standards of 1942-1943 and such main armament. The Carro Armato P26 / 40 was also never used in combat by Italian units and served only as a capture tank in some German units stationed on the Apennine in the period 1943-1945.
Pretty average kit. It was fun to build, however some of the front glacis plates and turret plates had gaps that need to be filled. Could have just been my end, but some of my pegs? (The things you put the leaf springs and return rollers on) were snapped and render the connection weaker. The antennae also is a weak connection and is easily broken. I’m not sure how this kit differs from italeri’s P40. I think it might be the exact same kit besides the extra world of tanks promotional stuff. Would recommended for builders with some experience. Not the hardest or easiest kit, just a few skills required like filling and sanding.
