Ithangi eliphakathi lase-Italy i-M-11/39 I-Fiat M11/39. Idizayinelwe njengethangi lokusekela izinsana. Ithangi le-M-11/39 lakhiwa ngu-Ansaldo futhi lafakwa ekukhiqizweni ngobuningi ngo-1939. Kwakungummeleli wokuqala wekilasi elithi "M" - izimoto eziphakathi ngokusho kwesigaba sase-Italy, nakuba ngokombono wesisindo sokulwa nezikhali, leli thangi kanye namathangi e-M-13/40 kanye ne-M-14/41 alandela. kufanele kubhekwe njengokukhanya. Le moto, njengabaningi be-M class, yayisebenzisa injini kadizili, eyayingemuva. Ingxenye ephakathi yayihlala umnyango wokulawula kanye nendawo yokulwa. Umshayeli ubebekwe kwesokunxele, ngemuva kwakhe kukhona i-turret efakwe amawele amabili ezibhamu ezingama-8-mm, kanye nesibhamu esingu-37-mm eside esifakwe ngakwesokudla kwesikhala se-turret. Enqoleni yangaphansi, amasondo omgwaqo ayirabha ayi-8 anobubanzi obuncane asetshenziswa ohlangothini ngalunye. Amasondo omgwaqo abehlangene ngamabili ezinqoleni ezi-4. Ngaphezu kwalokho, bekunama-roller asekelayo angu-3 ohlangothini ngalunye. Amathangi asebenzisa amathrekhi ensimbi anezixhumanisi ezincane. Njengoba ukuvikelwa kwezikhali nezikhali zethangi le-M-11/39 kwakungenele ngokusobala, lamathangi akhiqizwa isikhathi esifushane futhi ashintshwa ekukhiqizeni i-M-13/40 kanye ne-M-14/41.   Ngo-1933, kwacaca ukuthi ama-wedges awazange athathe indawo eyanele ye-Fiat 3000 ephelelwe yisikhathi, ngakho-ke isinqumo senziwe sokuthuthukisa ithangi elisha. Ngemva kokuhlolwa kwenguqulo esindayo (12 t) yemoto esekelwe ku-CV33, ukukhetha kwenziwe kwavuna inguqulo elula (8 t). Ngo-1935 isifanekiso sase silungile. Isibhamu se-Vickers-Terni L37 esingu-40 mm sasitholakala esakhiweni esiphezulu se-hull futhi sinokunqamula okulinganiselwe (30° ngokuvundlile kanye no-24° ngokuqondile). I-loader-gunner yayitholakala ngakwesokudla kwegumbi lokulwa, umshayeli wayengakwesokunxele futhi ngemuva kancane, futhi umlawuli walawula izibhamu ezimbili ze-Breda ezingu-8 mm ezifakwe ku-turret. Injini (esajwayelekile) ibishayela amasondo angaphambili ku-transmission. Ukuhlolwa kwenkundla kubonise ukuthi injini yethangi kanye nokuhanjiswa kudinga ukucwengwa. Umbhoshongo omusha, oyindilinga nawo wenziwa ukuze kwehliswe izindleko futhi kusheshiswe ukukhiqizwa. Ekugcineni, ngo-1937, ithangi elisha elaqokwa i-Carro di rottura (ithangi lokuphumelela) laqala ukukhiqizwa. I-oda lokuqala (futhi kuphela) lalingamayunithi ayi-100. Ukushoda kwezinto zokusetshenziswa kwabambezeleka ukukhiqizwa kwaze kwaba ngu-1939. Ithangi laqala ukukhiqizwa ngaphansi kwegama elithi M.11/39, njengethangi eliphakathi elinesisindo samathani ayi-11, laqala ukusebenza ngo-1939. Inguqulo yokugcina (ye-serial) yayiphakeme kancane futhi isindayo (ngaphezu kwamathani ayi-10), futhi yayingenawo umsakazo, okunzima ukuwuchaza, njengoba i-prototype yethangi yayinesiteshi somsakazo esisebhodini. NgoMeyi 1940, amathangi e-M.11/39 (amayunithi angama-24) athunyelwa e-AOI (“Africa Orientale Italiana”/Italian East Africa). Bahlanganiswe ezinkampanini zamathangi ezikhethekile uM. (“Compagnia speciale carri M.”) ukuze kuqiniswe izikhundla zase-Italy kuleli koloni. Ngemva kokungqubuzana kwezempi yokuqala nabaseBrithani, umyalo wensimu yase-Italy wawudinga kakhulu izimoto ezintsha zokulwa, njengoba ama-wedges e-CV33 abonakala engenamsebenzi ngokuphelele ekulweni namathangi aseBrithani. NgoJulayi wonyaka ofanayo, i-4th Tank Regiment, ehlanganisa i-70 M.11/39s, yafika e-Benghazi. Ukusetshenziswa kokuqala kokulwa kwamathangi e-M.11/39 ngokumelene nabaseBrithani kwaba yimpumelelo enkulu: basekela izinsana zase-Italy ekuhlaseleni kokuqala eSidi Barrani. Kodwa, njengama-tankette CV33, amathangi amasha abonisa izinkinga zobuchwepheshe: ngo-September, lapho iqembu elihlomile lihlela kabusha ibutho le-1 lebutho le-4, kwavela ukuthi izimoto ezingu-31 kuphela kwezingu-9 zahlala zihamba. Ukungqubuzana kokuqala kwamathangi e-M .11 / 39 namathangi aseBrithani kubonise ukuthi basemuva kakhulu nabaseBrithani cishe kuzo zonke izici: ku-firepower, izikhali, ingasaphathwa ubuthakathaka bokumiswa nokudluliselwa. NgoDisemba 1940, lapho abaseBrithani beqala ukuhlasela kwabo, i-2nd Battalion (izinkampani ezi-2 M.11 / 39) yahlaselwa ngokuzumayo eduze kwaseNibeiwa, futhi ngesikhathi esifushane yalahlekelwa amathangi angu-22. I-1st Battalion, ngaleso sikhathi eyayiyingxenye ye-Special Armored Brigade entsha, futhi eyayinenkampani engu-1 M.11 / 39 kanye nezinkampani ezimbili ze-CV2, yakwazi ukuthatha ingxenye encane kuphela ezimpini, njengoba amathangi ayo amaningi kulungiswa eTobruk (Tobruk). Ngenxa yokunqotshwa okukhulu okulandelayo, okwenzeka ekuqaleni kuka-1941, cishe wonke amathangi e-M.11/39 abhujiswa noma athunjwa yisitha. Njengoba ukwehluleka okusobala kwalemishini ukunikeza okungenani isembozo samasosha ahamba ngezinyawo, izisebenzi ngaphandle kokungabaza zajikijela izimoto ezazingakwazi ukuhamba. Abantu base-Australia bahlomisa ibutho lonke nge-Italian М.11 / 39 eyathunjwa, kodwa ngokushesha bahoxiswa enkonzweni ngenxa yokungakwazi okuphelele kwalawa mathangi ukufeza imisebenzi yokulwa eyabelwe. Ezisele (izimoto eziyisi-6 kuphela) zasetshenziswa e-Italy njengezimoto zokuqeqesha, futhi ekugcineni zahoxiswa emsebenzini ngemva kokuphela kwesivumelwano sokuvikela izikhali ngoSepthemba 1943. I-M.11 / 39 yaklanywa njengethangi lokusekela izinsana. Sekukonke, kusukela ngo-1937 (lapho kukhishwa i-prototype yokuqala) kuya ku-1940 (lapho ithathelwa indawo yi-M.11 / 40 yesimanje), engu-92 yale mishini yakhiqizwa. Ayesetshenziswa njengamathangi aphakathi nendawo ohambweni abedlula kude amakhono awo (izikhali ezinganele, izikhali ezibuthakathaka, amasondo omgwaqo amancane abanzi kanye nezixhumanisi zamathrekhi amancane). Ngesikhathi sokulwa kwasekuqaleni eLibya, babengenalo ithuba lokulwa neBritish Matilda noValentine.
