General info
Survivability and armour
Armour is not great ,but the gun shield protects from .50cal Fire from the front and very sloped armor of the hull can bounce shots. The Back is very vulnerable as your crew can be killed by anything and the ammo is also stored there. One artillery shell behind you can one shot the 90/53.
Mobility
The Mobility is good on flat terrain and even on some slopes, about the same as other italian Tanks on the same chassis. Due to the 90° horizontal fire angle, the 90/53 can drive diagonaly while aiming.
