About this vehicle

A parade modification of the Progetto M35 mod. 46. The exterior contains references to the glorious past of the Roman Empire, with its myths and legends. A reminder of the honored past of the modern Italian tankers' ancestors is great motivation for self-improvement. Evidence of the greatness of the empire, reconstructions of which adorn this tank, fit nicely with the general style of the vehicle, which can both spearhead an attack like a cataphract and slowly lead a convoy of vehicles during big celebrations.
