Description
During 1942, the Italian Army considered mounting the 10.5cm gun on the chassis of a P40 medium tank. However, delays with the P40 forced designers in a new direction and an alternate chassis based on the M15/42 was developed.

Due to the size of the 10.5cm gun, the chassis had to be widened to accommodate the proposed armament. This chassis become known as M43 and by the beginning of 1943, the first order had been placed.

Once the Germans took control of the Italian industrial heartland in the North of Italy, they kept up the production of Italian armoured vehi-cles, especially the Semovente assault guns. These included the newest designs like the Semovente 105/25 became Sturmgeschütz M43 mit 105/25 853(i), and the  later production Semovente 75/46 (Sturmgeschütz M43 mit 75/46 852(i)) with a long 75mm gun based on an anti-aircraft gun.

By the end of 1943, a number of Semovente 105/25 were in service in the German Army. They saw action with the 336. Infanterie Division and the 26. Panzer Division and a year later 66 were in service with Army Groups C and F in Italy and the Balkans.
