Dati di Perforazione dei Munizioni Anticarro Greek della Seconda Guerra Mondiale

Shell Types ed Armour Penetration Capabilities

Captured carri armati medi italiani Fiat M13/40 were briefly used by Australian forces after the fall of Tobruk in gennaio of 1941. They were then shipped to Greece, in time for the German invasion of the Balkans in aprile of 1941.

The table lists armour penetration values for Greek guns da 0 al 100 metri range e 0 degrees inclination of armour. Dates indicate the year when a particular shell type entered production, not necessarily the year of availability to combat units. New shell types would take several months to reach the troops at the front, some favoured units receiving the new shells more quickly than others. Andrew Mark Reid is the author of Panzergranate, a set of regolamenti di wargame using prudentamente researched gunnery data to simulate armour penetration results.

Weapon	Shell Type	Penetration
47 mm L.32 Fiat 47/32 M37 Tank Gun	A.P. (M.1935)	58 mm
Main armament of carro armato medio Fiat M13/40 captured at Tobruk. The 47/32 was a self-loading weapon, con a circular magazine tray attached to the torretta ring. This gave the Fiat M13/40 the same high rate of fire as that of a vehicle con una crew di torretta a tre soldati.
65 mm L.17.7 Schneider M.06 Mountain Gun	A.P.	37 mm
75 mm L.36.6 Ansaldo Field Gun da 75/32	A.P.	86 mm
The gun is either a copy of the cannone da campagna da 75 mm L.36.6 Schneider M.1914 francese o it may be a Schneider export in Italian inventory. It entered il servizio Greek following capture at Tobruk.

The Greek army received much equipaggiamento italiano captured by le forze armate inglese e del Commonwealth britannico at Tobruk in gennaio of 1941. However, i cannoni e veicoli italiani proved inadequate against Wehrmacht armour encountered during the invasion of the Balkans.
