Crusader Mk II*
*
This was a popular tank with its crews, after*
initial teething problems were sorted out,*
however it was never quite a match for*
the German vehicles met in North Africa*
being underarmoured, and with its 2 pounder*
armament becoming less competetive by 1941.*
*
This is the later 2 pounder equipped model*
with slightly better armour, but by 1942 the*
2 pounder was barely adequate in an MBT.*
