Centauro B1

Notes: There are two hatches on the turret for the gunner and commander, and one on the front deck for the driver. The Centauro can ford 1.5 meters with no preparation. The vehicle has an independent auxiliary power unit for basic electrical needs, thus saving fuel while idling. The Centauro is equipped with NBC protective filtration. The gunner and commander share a stabilized thermal imager (both may use it at the same time).

Due to the Centauro’s turret, any turret hit that results in an ammunition explosion does not automatically kill the crew and destroy the vehicle. Instead, consider all turret weapons, sensors, and electronics to be damaged and inoperative. Then apply 50 points of concussion damage to the commander, gunner, and loader. (Hull hits which cause an ammunition explosion still destroy the vehicle and kill the crew; 14 rounds are stored in the turret, and 26 in the hull.)

There are attachment lugs on the turret front and hull front for reactive armor. The Centauro is normally found only in airborne, air assault, and light infantry units.

Fiat-OTOBreda Type 6616

Notes: This light armored car is in service with the Italian Carabineri, Peru, and Somalia. It is an armored car with an escape hatch on either side, 4x4 suspension, and a turret housing a 20mm Rh-202 autocannon. The driver’s hatch is on the front deck, and there are commander’s and gunner’s hatches on the turret deck. Next to the commander’s hatch is a 106mm M-40 recoilless rifle.

The Type 6616-60 is a standard 6616 hull fitted with a turret mounting a 60mm hypervelocity autocannon and better fire control. It is in use only by Italy, and few of them at that.

Gorgona

Notes: Described by its crews as an "armored sports car," the Gorgona was designed for rapid road reconnaissance and some off-road work. It is basically an automobile with armor, night vision devices, amphibious capability, and armament. The weapon mount on the roof above the commander's position can mount any weapon designed for an NLT or NMT; a typical weapon is shown below. This weapon can be aimed and fired by the commander without having to expose himself. The engine is in the rear and there is a large trunk up front. The windows are of bullet-resistant glass. The only users of this vehicle are the Italian Carabinieri, Oman, and Saudi Arabia.

Lizard F333E

Notes: The Lizard is a very light and basic armored car that was meant primarily as a liaison and reconnaissance vehicle. The vehicle is little more than an armored jeep, but has some extra utility, able to mount machineguns, recoilless rifles, or light ATGM. The vehicle has extra mine protection, and the floor is treated as having the same armor protection as the hull front. Only 15 prototypes were built.
