Evening Worsham. Excuse my delay in answering your post.
I had not heard of either tank. I voted for the Japanese one, as they could have been used to defend Japan against an amphibious attack (if it had happened).
For Italy, the P26 came too late. It did not have the technology to get it into production early enough to tilt things in its favour. It was relying on the Semovente and big guns mounted on lorries. The Germans were Italy’s armoured force.
Thanks again.
Italian Weapons in WW2
-
How would these upgrades in weapons helped the Italians in the war?
-
Britain would have gotten PWNED… The Italian Manpower would have conquered the middleeast, activated muslim support, and likely opened a new front on the Russians… Turkey also could have felt compelled, or pressured, to allow the Italians into the Black Sea…
All the Allied Campaigns coming up from the south would have been stunted… thus allowing Axis forces to redeploy, You would have see fighting from Liberia to Morocco instead, and Allies out of the mediterranean.
ALL GOOD THINGS for Axis Powers…
+1 to victory.

nope, problem lied especially in individual morale of the average infantry

Not according to Rommel. He had his complaints about their leadership in some areas, but certainly not their troops.

I remember he was speaking about Aquila and Ariete division?
the elite-italians were good (panzers, black shirts etc), but the average italian?
rommel used a ‘corset’ at the battle of alamein; so placing german troops between italians, so they can look at the ‘good example’ instead or running. -
I think if the italians had modern weapons they would of stayed and fought more.
