Description

GarageImage L3 33 CC.jpg


The Carro Armato L3 Contro Carro (shortened to L3/33 CC) is a rank I Italian tank destroyer with a battle rating of 1.0 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced in Update 1.85 "Supersonic".

The L3/33 CC is an Italian tank that is the Warthunder Equivalent of a Shoebox on tracks with a gun. This vehicle has very little armour which allows for it to quickly and deftly maneuver the battlefield, scouting for pockets to position the vehicle for tactical advantages against the slower and heavier enemy vehicles at a close range.

Usage in battles

The L3/33 CC is best used in ambushes, as this tactic allows it to strike from close distance; an hill can provide a nice spot for this, as the L3 has 15 degrees of gun depression and can get to cover by simply reversing if it is spotted in time.

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Small enough vehicle profile to utilize a variety of cover in the field
  • Due to its small surface area, it is very easy to almost be completely cover in bushes, making it very hard to spot in most maps when standing still
  • Great gun depression (-15°)

Cons:

  • Main gun difficult to use on all but soft targets over 400 m away
  • Almost non existent armour, can be pierced by .50 MG from the front
  • 2 man crew

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 If the historical reference turns out to be too big, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/ History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === Encyclopedia Info ===, also if applicable).
