The AB md. 41 (Autoblindat model 1941) was a Romanian-produced armored car prototype from World War II.[1] It was produced by the Reșița works just before Romania had entered the war.[2] The vehicle's main armament was a Czechoslovak-produced 37 mm gun (probably by Škoda). The project didn't pass the prototype stage.[3]
