question about semovente 47 32 HQ
it is an 8mm Breda machine gun which equips this tankette
on the picture we see a gun, is it a defect or it was equipped with a dummy
I can't find any info on the internet

Per this Wikipedia article on the Semovente da 47/32 the HQ tanks had additional radios and an 8mm Breda MG that is disguised as the 47mm. I'm not looking at CMFI at the moment to see what the actual model and specs are in the game, so I'm unsure of CMFI's depiction in this case.

Thanks @Schrullenhaft

I should have checked the English wikipedia
in french wiki  say:
"In addition to additional radio equipment, the cannon was replaced by a Breda Mod machine gun. 38 of 8 mm. After the signing of the armistice this version was also retained and used by the Wehrmacht renamed PzBefWg L6 770 (i) ."
in english wiki say
" in its place there was an 8 mm Breda mod. 38 machine gun, disguised as a 47 mm gun.[6] This variant had twin radio aerials as well as the mock gun barrel."

I have already noticed that there is sometimes information missing and other in addition

To be fair, on the picture the gun does look like an imposter .  I'd rather have a 37mm with cannister rounds a-plenty.
