During World War II, Italy regularly mounted cannons on portee trucks. Also, permanent installation of guns on trucks and armored cars were done on ad-hoc basis, therefore many self-propelled guns had no official name besides descriptive type of truck plus type of cannon. Below is the grossly incomplete list of these self-propelled weapons.

The Carro Armato M13/40 was the Italian tank designed to replace the Fiat L3, the Fiat L6/40 and the Fiat M11/39 in the Italian Army at the start of World War II. The M13/40, weighing 13-14 tons, was fitted with a 47 mm gun, having armor-piercing capabilities, in the turret and a four-men crew.
The armour was capable of protecting the tank against early anti-tank (and tank) guns such as the British 40 mm (1.6 in) QF 2-pounder, but was vulnerable to subsequent anti-tank weapons such as the 57 mm, (2.24 in) QF 6-pounder that entered service in 1942, and was completely overmatched by the 76 mm (3 in) QF 17-pounder coming into use in 1943.
