     Camionetta Desertica AS.42 / SPA-Viberti AS.42

The SPA-Viberti AS.42 Sahariana was an Italian reconnaissance car of World War II. The AS 42 Sahariana was developed by SPA-Viberti using the same chassis as the AB 41 armoured car, including its four-wheel steering, but with a 2×4 transmission specifically for desert operations, primarily in a reconnaissance role. Its origins trace back to requests stemming from units operating on the North African Front for a long range, highly manoeuvrable vehicle, similar to those widely used by the highly successful British reconnaissance forces, the Long Range Desert Group (LRDG).

The Camionetta Desertica AS.42 Sahariana was a 4×2 unarmoured vehicle with a boat hull based on the chassis of the AB 41 armoured car, but with a 2×4 transmission.
