The Bisonte C45 is an Italian tier 8 premium heavy tank.
In Italy, alongside the production and modernization of American vehicles, there was a considerable discussion around the development of the ideal tank for the future. During that discussion, Colonel Mario Zini proposed a project for a heavy tank with a low silhouette that was easy to maintain. However, no prototypes were built.
The first Italian heavy tank and the first heavy tank to be equipped with an improved autoreloading mechanism.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- 3-round autoreloader with good burst damage and penetration
- Spaced armor on the upper glacis and turret front-sides improves protection against HE and HEAT
- Great gun depression, can use most hulldown positions effectively
- Lacks turret weakspots, such as hittable cupolas
- Very good top speed for a heavy tank
Cons:
- Poor gun handling, accuracy and aim time
- Lenghty magazine reload, takes a long time to completely refill it
- The upper plate is rather thin, and relies on angling to achieve satisfactory thickness
- Lower than average hitpoint pool for a heavy tank
- Low engine power, cannot reach its listed top speed unless driving down slopes
Early Research
