Don't think you are small enough to slide beneath its guns, as it's hull-mounted 75 mm cannon has a whopping -20° depression, and the 47 mm in the turret has -18°, meaning that even if you are squeezing right between its tracks, it can still hit your fragile roof armour and eliminate a crew member with shrapnel. But if unfortunately, you have to confront it, you must avoid its guns. Do anything to avoid fighting this tank, leave it to your teammates by pinning its position on the map. The B1 is covered by thick armour of at least 50 mm in all directions, even the turret ring and the cupola are 40 mm which all exceed the maximum penetration of the 元 (38 mm). In addition, the armour is so weak that it cannot even protect against. Due to the cramped layout of internal modules and crew of 2, any penetrating shell is enough to destroy the vehicle. When playing the 元/33, incoming fire should be avoided at all costs. This works only in RB/SB since the nametag gives your position away in arcade. You can also hide in plain sight and turn off your engine, though this is much riskier. Simply get to a capture point, hide somewhere within the point, and prevent enemy tanks from capturing it. This is particularly useful when capturing points, as enemy tanks cannot capture a zone when an ally is inside of it. You can also get into a lot of small hiding spots due to the tanks small size and low profile. It is also useful as a flanker due to its small size (hard to spot) and high mobility. The 元/33 CC is best used in ambushes, as this tactic allows it to strike from a close distance a hill can provide a nice spot for this, as the 元 has 15 degrees of gun depression and can get to cover by simply reversing if it is spotted in time. Certain heavy targets ( B1 bis) should be avoided altogether.Īmmo racks of the 元/33 CC Usage in battles The only thing holding this quick-firing gun back is a lack of effective penetration to deal with all tanks at its battle rating, requiring the commander of this vehicle to be up close and personal and/or flank in order to deal with well-armoured targets ( M3 Stuart, Pz.38(t) F, T-70). Wielding an anti-tank rifle with a 10 round magazine capable of launching a small APHE shell every second, the 元/33, in the hands of a competent commander, is able to deal with multiple lightly-armoured vehicles in quick succession. Main article: Fucile Controcarri S Mod.39 (20 mm) The mobility is very good, is is able to quickly manoeuvre across the battlefield, scouting for pockets to position the vehicle in for tactical advantages against the slower and heavier enemy vehicles it may face. You can easily hide this vehicle within vegetation, or you can also just as easily cover the vehicle with bushes. Introduced in Update 1.85 "Supersonic", the 元/33 CC can be effective around its battle rating, its small stature allowing it to be the perfect ambush vehicle. This vehicle survived the end of the war and remained in service in limited numbers in the Italian post-war police force. However, once heavier foes began to be deployed, the gun began to be used less for anti-tank duties and more for general fire support against the remaining light tanks, infantry and other support vehicles that may be spotted. The CC variant would primarily be armed with a 20 mm Fucile Controcarri S Mod.39 anti-tank gun, these were surprisingly effective during the pre-war and early war periods as heavily armoured threats weren't as prevalent. Several variants were produced, including a flamethrower variant (the 元/33 LF, standing for "LanciaFiamme"), and even a bridge carrier variant. However, due to how easy it was to produce that drawback was not too important, it swiftly saw combat in many war theatres Italy was present in, such as in Yugoslavia, Albania, and Greece. Its main drawback was the lack of armour, even heavier calibre machine guns could pose a serious threat to the crew inside. It was a compact, light design with decent mobility. It swiftly became one of the most utilized platforms due to its unique features that made it a very useful vehicle for the Italian terrain. The Carro Veloce, also known as the 元/33, was designed and produced by Ansaldo for the Regio Esercito beginning in 1933.
