Location History:
(see map)

1: Fiat Ansaldo Company, Genova, Province of Genova, Liguria, Italy (Manufacturer)
2: Defence Line, Tagliamento River, Pordenone, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy (Possible source)
3: Caserma A.L. Paglieri, Codroipo, Udine, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy (Current location)


This M15 is missing its hull machine-gun and main gun (the current gun and mantlet are fake). This could indicate that it was once buried as part of a static defence line - there was a post-War defence line along the Tagliamento river that used old M13 series tanks in this way. (Source: M. Foti). It is missing other components, such as exhausts, and is displayed mounted on a stone ramp.
