Carro Armato P26/40 a new axis tank

With the Italy vs. UK event approaching, and I think a portion of the community has already seen the leaks, especially the M41 skin, I personally don’t see this as disappointing, but rather as the beginning.

I suggest the “Carro Armato pesante 40” (this vehicle is in War Thunder, so it would only require porting it to Enlisted).

Taking into account its armor (which isn’t much, actually), a 50mm plate inclined at 45 degrees and 40mm of armor on the sides. And don’t forget the 75mm cannon, which would make this thing go up a BR…

Although it would be a perfect tank for BR II, considering Darkflow, they would add it to BR III, where it would still put up a good fight.

A brief history of the P40: the tank was intended to appear on the African front, initially to be called the P75, but due to production delays, it would not see combat until 1943, where, although somewhat outdated, it would give the Allies a bit of a fight in the campaign. When the armistice came in September 1943, the Germans continued production.

Now that Italy is getting a little more attention than last time, I feel it’s time to release tanks and squadrons. I also consider it a waste of potential, considering Italy has no recognition in squadrons, but it does have recognition in its equipment and little in its camouflage.
(I’m using the translator for all of this)

It’s not my decision, nor yours, but honestly, the Russians already have their maps, the Japanese have theirs too, the Italians don’t. The Italian theater is more important than Manchuria in my opinion.
