A question what was the armament of that tankette.?
CV 33 in Croatian service 1941
As for CV 33, Ansaldo (an arsenal and heavy industry company located in Genoa) started to build in 1933 the “Carro Veloce CV 33” (Fast Tank CV 33). This “tank” (it would be more appropriate to call it “tankette”, as it was an improved version of the Vickers-Carden-Loyd Mk VI tankette ) were developed in different variants : flame-thrower, bridge carrier tank, command tank.

Pretty weak guns, thanks for the info.
and pretty weak armor… they were cases when partisans opened fire on these tanks and the bullets of the mg42 could penetrate the armor and get into a vehicle and there buzz around pin peng pong :lol:
Not very moral boosting vehicle :twisted: …better a panzer II for recon duties.
