As42 Sahariana - Warlord Bolt Action

By 1942, the famed British and Commonwealth LRDG roamed well beyond the Axis lines, creating havoc in the communication lines, aerodromes, depots and supply bases. At the same time, their far-reaching reconnaissance patrols were precious for Allied intelligence. The Italian army tried to emulate such unit, and in order to have a match for the vehicles used by the British, they used a project that SPA-Viberti proposed some time before, based on the AB 41. This was a scout car, at first unarmed, but quickly got to be heavily armed. The SPA-Viberti AS.42 was quickly developed in early 1942. The prototype was presented to the army on 9 July 1942, passed all tests, and was put into production as soon as August 1942.
