Flames of War: Italian AS42 Sahariana (MG/AT/47/20)

The Sahariana was an open bodied version of the Autoblindo armoured car, adapted as a long range desert patrol vehicle. Camionetta is an Italian term used for soft vehicles modified to mount weapons, and often translated to Jeep, hence the Sahariana is often referred to as the Italian Desert Jeep.

The Sahariana was characterised by its large wheels, rear-mounted motor, sloped and rounded off snout on which the spare wheel was mounted, flank racks upholstered in petrol cans (ten on each side), and water containers (two each for front guards). Mounted on the rear guards were two ramps for un-bogging.

The driver was positioned centrally in front of the fighting compartment; the remaining space was used for weapon crew, weapons, and provisions. During operations the front windscreen was covered by canvas to avoid reflecting sunlight.

It had a maximum speed of 80kph and a range of 800 kilometres. Approximately 300 AS-42 Saharianas were made. The vehicle was much liked by its crew and some examples survived to be used into the 1950s.

This pack contains one AS37 Sahariana with MG, AT Rifle, 47mm AT Gun, and 20mm AA Gun options.
