Hello, I have run across some interesting information concerning a Tank design, dated 1916 by the famous Isotta Fraschini. It came from the following Russian book dated 1933.
{Sorry it will not post the name of the book in Russian}Contemporary means of armor by K. Stepnogo. Would anyone have any further information on this unique tank?
I so understand you have taken this picture http://www.ljplus.ru/img4/d/i/digitax/Izotta.jpg
It is written there: "Italy, notwithstanding what, it has entered war rather early, could not expose the tanks. As well as in other armies, design work in Italy went by creation of easy and heavy types of tanks. The first project the heavy multitower tank was; according to some information it was the many-wheeled machine. Then the project of firm Isotta-Fraschini concerns to 1916 - also type of the many-wheeled tank. However both these of the project on technical defects could not be accepted on manufacture and Italians have gone on a way of copying of the French light tank..."
