The IBG 72096 Italian Autocannone 3Ro with 90/53 90mm AA Gun kit in 1/72 scale is a high-quality plastic replica of a unique Italian military vehicle from World War II. The Autocannone 3Ro, equipped with a powerful 90/53 mm anti-aircraft cannon, was an essential part of the Italian armed forces, particularly during the North African campaign.

History and use: The Autocannone 3Ro was based on the proven Fiat 3Ro truck chassis, one of the most significant Italian military trucks. It was fitted with the effective 90/53 anti-aircraft gun, which was also successfully used as an anti-tank weapon. Vehicles of this type were used from 1942 onwards, primarily by the Italian army, including the Ariete Division during desert battles as well as in the defense of Sicily and Italy. Their mobility provided protection for convoys and effective firepower against Allied armored vehicles and aircraft.

Period of use: The model represents a vehicle used extensively during the years 1942-1945, during World War II.
