Reggimento Anticarro Britannico, 1944

Table of Organisation & Equipaggiamento

At the beginning of the war, the anti-tank reggimento was equipped con cannone anticarro 2 pdr, which were gradually replaced by the more powerful cannoni anticarro 6 pdr as they became available. In maggio 1942, the first 100 cannoni anticarro Ordonance QF 17/25 pdr were rushed to Tunisia, to defeat the carri armati tedeschi Tiger which were encountered there. The 17 pdr went into full-scale production in 1943, ed it would eventually equip due of the tre anti-tank troops of the anti-tank battery. In 1944, new A.P.D.S. shells became available for 6 pdr e 17 pdr guns, which significantly improved armour penetration capabilities. Il reggimento anticarro della Divisione Corazzata della Guardia had due self-propelled batteries in 1944, using the 17 pdr Achilles Tank Destroyer.
