Looks a lot of an expensive tank chassis for a basic 40mm AAA arrangement! Maybe A Marder chassis I could understand, but a Leo1 chassis 😯
Thanks for the turret IDs Jeff and Greg Quote from: M.A.D on July 12, 2020, 04:29:33 PMLooks a lot of an expensive tank chassis for a basic 40mm AAA arrangement!

The Italians didn't really have a Marder analogue at the time .
Not a tank per se, though it does have a Leo 1 turret: The Radpanzer 90:
