Lonate Pozzolo. Parco della Rimembranza
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

At first you may believe this is an Austro-Hungarian Infanteriegeschütz M.15, but it's not, it's a copy build for the Italian Army. 37 mm mod. 1915 by Massimo Foti, on Flickr

Italian Army first acquired 75 mm guns from Krupp (mod. 1906), then moved to Deport (mod. 1911). While the Deports were being build under license, a small amount of 75 mm guns from Krupp were acquired to be used by horse artillery (mod. 1912): 75 mm mod. 1912 by Massimo Foti, on Flickr

It's a pity that nothing has been done to try to preserve the wooden parts of the wheels.
