Italian Alpini Elefantino 47mm Anti-Tank Gun
Italian Alpini Elefantino 47mm Anti-Tank Gun
Need versatile firepower halfway up a mountain? Get an Elefantino!
The Cannone da 47/32 mod. 1935, known as ‘Elefantino’ (‘little elephant’) by its crews for the tusk-like arc of its carriage, was a lightweight dual-purpose gun used throughout WWII by the Italian military, including the Alpini mountain troops. Often pulled by mule teams, it was effective against lighter armoured vehicles and in a direct-fire role against dug-in infantry, and could be effectively transported across truly rugged terrain when disassembled.
Light Anti-Tank Guns offer great value for their low points cost in Bolt Action: Third Edition, where their lighter shells are offset by just how many you can field! Even larger vehicles will need to beware, as the AT Gun bonus to hit vehicles and the chance of a flanking shot can spell disaster for all but the heaviest tanks!
