Equipped with Christie suspension with large diameter rolling wheels, the Crusader possessed remarkable driving skills on rough terrain. The first versions of Mk. I and Mk. II were armed with a 2 pdr. cannon later replaced by the more powerful 6 pdr. cannon in the Mk.III version. Lacking adequate armor against enemy fire, it was also very vulnerable to enemy mines and anti-tank guns, and its armament was often inadequate in front of similar German vehicles. However, when used in a coordinated way, they managed to achieve good results. The Crusaders Mk. II, with the arrival of the more powerful Mk.III, were already relegated to second-line duties at the time of the battle of El Alamein.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eType: Tanks\u003cbr\u003ePeriod: Second World War\u003cbr\u003eSkill: 3\u003cbr\u003eModel Dim.: 17.1 cm\u003cbr\u003eBox Dim.: 345 x 242 x 60 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDecals for 3 versions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e Be sure to check out our armor accessories, metal barrels, and individual track links!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"display: block; margin: 0 0 1em 0; line-height: 1.4;\"\u003eWe are not responsible for any taxes, duty, vat, customs or other fees on the receiver’s end.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"display: block; margin: 0 0 1em 0; line-height: 1.4;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #212b36; font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; display: inline !important; float: none;\"\u003eCheck out our other items and save on shipping!
