Tamiya 32541 - 1/48 Crusader Mk.I/II  [32541]

Towards British Crusader Mk.We & II Tank

Into the 1930's, an Uk mission observed the industry maneuvers of this Russian army and had been impressed by the performance of a number of their tanks, that have been affected by the designs of American Walter Christie. The British chose to develop their very own fast 'cruiser' tank with regards to their army and their efforts eventually led to the Crusader. When it entered operational service in 1941 as an ingredient of process Battleaxe in North Africa, the Crusader ended up being found to be faster than its German counterparts, but had a less effective weapon, thinner armor, and ended up being less reliable. Nonetheless, it served well as a battletank until changed by more recent designs.
