The Camionetta SPA-Viberti AS43, or SPA-Viberti AS43 Reconnaissance Car, was an Italian reconnaissance vehicle developed for the Regio Esercito (Royal Army) with a specific focus on long-range operations in the North African desert. Designed to conduct ambushes on Allied convoys, counter the British Long Range Desert Group (LRDG), and escort Axis convoys along desert routes, the AS43 was intended as a versatile asset in desert warfare. Unfortunately, it entered service too late to see action in North Africa. Instead, the vehicle was deployed within Italy and the Balkans, where it was used in various reconnaissance and escort roles throughout the remainder of the war.
