The CV-33, also known as the Carro Veloce CV-33, was a small tankette developed by Italy in the early 1930s. Designed for reconnaissance and infantry support, it featured a lightweight and compact design, making it highly maneuverable on the battlefield. The CV-33 was armed with twin 8 mm machine guns and was lightly armored, providing limited protection for its two-man crew. Despite its modest capabilities, the CV-33 saw extensive use during the interwar period and in the early stages of World War II, particularly in the campaigns in North Africa and the Balkans. Its relatively low cost and ease of production made it a significant component of Italy's armored forces during that era, although it was eventually outclassed by more modern and heavily armed tanks as the war progressed.
