The M13/40 (II) is nearly identical to its other in-game variants. An average gun for its BR, it can penetrate the front of some of the tanks it will face. It has decent armour, strong enough to bounce some shells at certain angles. The worst aspect of the M13/40 (II) is its speed. Poor acceleration makes it hard to achieve its top speed of 32 km/h.

Description

The Fiat-Ansaldo M13/40 II Serie (shortened as M13/40 (II)) is a gift Rank I Italian medium tank with a battle rating of 2.0 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced along with the rest of the Italian ground tree in Update 1.85 "Supersonic". It has a 47 mm gun with a coaxial 8 mm machine gun and one pintle mounted 8 mm machine gun.

The M13/40 (II) is nearly identical to its other in-game variants. An average gun for its BR, it can penetrate the front of some of the tanks it will face. It has decent armour, strong enough to bounce some shells at certain angles. The worst aspect of the M13/40 (II) is its speed. Poor acceleration makes it hard to achieve its top speed of 32 km/h.

General info

Survivability and armour

Describe armour protection. Note the most well protected and key weak areas. Appreciate the layout of modules as well as the number and location of crew members. Is the level of armour protection sufficient, is the placement of modules helpful for survival in combat?

If necessary use a visual template to indicate the most secure and weak zones of the armour.

Mobility

Write about the mobility of the ground vehicle. Estimate the specific power and manoeuvrability as well as the maximum speed forward and backwards.

Usage in the battles

Describe the tactics of playing in the vehicle, the features of using vehicles in the team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view but give the reader food for thought. Describe the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons

Summarize and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in a bulleted list. Do not use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - they have a substitution in the form of softer "inadequate", "effective".

Pros:

Cons:

History

Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the ground vehicle in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too big, take it to a separate article, taking a link to an article about the vehicle and adding a block "/historical reference" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/Name-vehicles/historical reference) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to include links to sources at the end of the article.

Media

An excellent addition to the article will be video guides, as well as screenshots from the game and photos.

Read also

Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example,

  • reference to the series of the vehicles;
  • links to approximate analogues of other nations and research trees.

ETC.

Sources

Paste links to sources and external resources, such as:

  • topic on the official game forum;
  • other literature.
