While the Italian Army tank crews of World War II were undoubtedly brave in combat, they lacked decent, modern day equipment and were hampered by extremely poor leadership.

How many people do you know that can run 22 mph??!
Ennemy soldier : slap the Italien tanks
The tank : burst into flammes
Enginner who made the tank : Well,aleast we try….
i love roleplaying as kid with CV33 in war thunder lol, just following Heavy tank around, and giving fire support that usually just disable enemy track and cannon, or as decoy so the heavy tank can easily shoot enemy back turret
LOL…the Italian military had the worst gear, the worst leaders, and the worst soldiers! But….Italian food and Italian women were both scrumptious 😀
At least we tried
war thunder better
Italian tanks had not to fight the enemy,their main purpose was to amuse them.
As a person with Sicilian heritage, I simply must put in the good old joke of saying how many gears an Italian tank has. The way my grandfather was told it, was that it had 1 forward and 6 reverse. But I guess it's still funny saying 4.
But there toughest tank is Carro armato p40
ugh wot console got fked i miss the old days
I couldn't stop laughing at the thumbnail cuz that Lily did happen to me at War than I was the Sherman thing and there's a little tiny Italian tank he didn't survive
WHAT WAS THAT THUMBNAIL.
America tanks: can survive another tank shot and is normal sized.
Italian tank: Litrally 10 cm high and 90 cm wide with a man standing on it
0:54 Cuz they only knows one weapon: The pizza
italy: haha tank go brrr
rest of europe and usa: haha your tank go boom
Weird editing at 1:34? Can't really tell what you said.
The imperial system is far too inferior compared to the Superior metric system
Best Redemption Story: Italian Tank Design from WW2 to post WW2
they run on pasta?
Why is rain wet?
You know what FIAT stands for don’t you, Spencer? FIX IT AGAIN T O N Y!
Ariete M-1 : laughs in superiority
Cus they put most of theyre points into charisma so the could switch sides instead of intelligence
They were made of pasta
Wow team leader Germany having worlds best tanks while others like Japan and Italy always ready to make new joke .
Perfect representation of T O N K
This is why you vid makers always pin your comments so people will believe you and people can access your links
You gotta have a big mustache to command one of those tanks.
Us army:
-Hey you are going to face panzers, take anti tank, bazooka, granades, moltov and additional explosives.
– Hey you are going to face Italian tanks pick some stones from backyard and go….. Hurrey you got some eay job buddies
At least they had some great machine guns oh wait….
The allies: We try to make peace.
Also the allies: Invades Italy,
Imagine being sent to war and they say “aight hop in the Fiat”
