Description
The OTO R3 T106 FA is a Rank V Italian light tank
with a battle rating of 7.3 (AB) and 8.0 (RB/SB). It was introduced in Update 1.85 "Supersonic".
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
The mobility of this tank is the same as the r3 T20 FAHS too. due to warthunder map sizes, the maximum speed that can be achieved before a turn has to be made is about 98kmph, possible on Cargo. on regular terrain speed will average about 60kmph and 50 when going up hills. This makes you the fastest tank (by quite a significant amount) in your BR range except for the VT 1-2 (RB 8.3). On desert maps this tank fares much better compared to the FIAT chassis or the centauro which succeeds it. it is capable of going about 30-35 kmph on desert terrain and a tad slower on snow terrain. It is faster than the FIAT chassis on all terrains and faster than famous fast tanks like ru251 on hard and medium terrain.
This excellent mobility allows you to flank very fast or go to a position even enemy fast tanks(such as the super hellcat) don't expect you to get to.
Armaments
Main armament
Give the reader information about the characteristics of the main gun. Assess its effectiveness in a battle based on the reloading speed, ballistics and the power of shells. Do not forget about the flexibility of the fire, that is how quickly the cannon can be aimed at the target, open fire on it and aim at another enemy. Add a link to the main article on the gun: {{main|Name of the weapon}}
. Describe in general terms the ammunition available for the main gun. Give advice on how to use them and how to fill the ammunition storage.
Additional armament
Some tanks are armed with several guns in one or more turrets. Evaluate the additional weaponry and give advice on its use. Describe the ammunition available for additional weaponry. Give advice on how to use them and how to fill the ammunition storage. If there is no additional weaponry remove this subsection.
Machine guns
Offensive and anti-aircraft machine guns not only allow you to fight some aircraft, but also are effective against lightly armoured vehicles. Evaluate machine guns and give recommendations on its use.
Usage in 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
Pros:
- Powerful 106mm recoilless rifles.
- Insane top speed; can give the M18 Hellcat a run for its money.
- Resilient to machine gun fire from the front.
- Can swim
Cons:
- Will be prioritized as a target by the enemy team due to its notoriety.
- Flips over very often.
- Thin armor.
- Can be destroyed simply by ramming it at top speed.
- Even LMG fire can destroy the engine from the rear.
History
In the early 1980s, the OTO Melara company developed a new armored car, called the OTO R 2.5 “Gorgona”. Investing heavily into research and development efforts, OTO Melara continued developing the design into a “Special Task Vehicle” as part of a private venture.
The resulting OTO R3, nicknamed in production as “Capraia” was first shown off at the Italian Naval Exhibition in Genoa in 1982. The new vehicle received increased armor protection around its body, protecting the crew from rifle caliber fire and shrapnel. Furthermore, the vehicle could be armed with various weaponry, ranging from MGs, over cannons to ATGMs, depending on the version.
Despite their very promising and versatile design, this family of combat vehicles were only built and used in very limited numbers.

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