Hey man,
No losses yet?
France? Oops losses in yemen?
American? oops Losses in yemen and Iraq too *not them but the iraqi gov*
Germany? Oops losses in Syria and Ukraine
Britain? Oops losses in Ukraine
ITALY NUMBER ONE
>Pretend to be shit to avoid combat >If in combat surrender the moment it stops going your way to avoid dying >If war stops going your way switch sides until you win
Just them using their classical doctrine.
Absolutely nothing. Buy it's old. Compared to other more modern tanks it is quite mediocre. Needs a good overhaul. Italy is now going through a long process of modernization, of and when the funds come, and the first step would be buying leopard 2s as temporary buffer, while they develop the ariete 2
Can't lose if you never fight. All tanks die just the same if they get hit by artillery, mines or wound up getting shot in the side. It pointless to argue which modern MBT is the best when they all suffer the same fate if struck anywhere outside the frontal arc.
Just a few weeks ago italy was the middleman in a transaction between germany and switzerland regarding 100 leopard 1s currently stocked in italian soil. Switzerland cucked germany by taking the dough and not shipping the tanks, because of the neutrality laws.
>zero (0) combat losses despite several months in Ukraine >survived a direct 155mm hit on camera
There you go folks, the M55s is the future of armored warfare and that is an undisputable fact.
I've only seen footage of one being claimed as destroyed by a 155mm krasnopol (others claimed it was a double lancet strike) however it later turned out that the tank quite literally returned on its own power and was still combat capable to a degree (the optics were fucked tho).
Checking Oryx it claims 1 damaged and 1 destroyed but I'm unsure as to how true that is.
because I actually know quite a few things about Italian military vehicles due to being an unofficial historical consultant for a major military videogame
bob semple reigns supreme
if it works
>design shittiest tank in existence so it'll never see combat
>will never have a combat loss
1000 IQ move from italy

It's just a smaller chally turret on a leo hull
>*laughs in no combat record
Undefeated
they were actually deployed in Iraq (or was it Afghanistan?)
I do because it’s the sexiest tank in service
oh boy
where do I begin
>laughter stops
>anyone, even the italians, caring about the shitiete
Sorry we didn't lose shit in Ukraine
And our threads don't get deleted
chally and ariete are in the wrong position
A message to the Germans, the Americans and the British that keep having their machines destroyed in Ukraine
SE VOI VI SI INSEGNA!
I think OP is referencing the destroyed challenger 2
I leave PrepHole for one day and this is what I come back to. Atleast they’re being used I guess
It's recoverable.
it wasn't destroyed the turret is still connected to the hull, chud
Another angle when?
now
Know nothing about it, I thought Italy was going with Leopard.
What's wrong with this one?

Yyp
There's been 3-4 lost by my count. Of footage I've seen on tg. I'm sure there's more unreported, like always. But who gives a shit about T-55's?

Did you even click the link?
No because fucking catbox doesn't buffer properly, lags and is consequently unwatchable for me. No idea why people rely on it.
If only we had a video format which we could use. Oh well.
Why are tanks so cool.
Because death musheen gud, friend.
Another Roman bvll victory
I asked chat gpt to make a Song about the ariete in the style of Sabaton...any of you can make It happen?
Part 2
Part 3
Is it actually that bad? How do you guys know if it has never seen combat
because I actually know quite a few things about Italian military vehicles due to being an unofficial historical consultant for a major military videogame
>tank never sees real combat
>never gets destroyed
It's like Russians blustering about the specs of their hangar queens
Except those still get destroyed.
reminder that italians aren't white
