Crusader, in full "Tank, Cruiser Mk VI, Crusader", also known by its General Staff number A.15, was one of the primary British cruiser tanks during the early part of the Second World War. Over 5,000 tanks were manufactured and they made important contributions to the British victories during the North African Campaign. The Crusader tank would not see active service beyond Africa, but the chassis of the tank was modified to create anti-aircraft, fire support, observation, communication, bulldozer and recovery vehicle variants.
The first Crusader Mark I tanks entered service in 1941, and, though manoeuvrable, it was relatively lightly armoured and under-armed. The following Crusader Mark II had a maximum armour of 49 mm (1.9 in). The main armament for the Crusader Mark I and II's was a 40 mm Ordnance QF 2 pounder gun; the following Crusader Mark III was fitted with a 57 mm Ordnance QF 6 pounder gun at the expense of one member of the crew in the turret. This variant was more than a match for the mid-generation German Panzer III and Panzer IV tanks that it faced in combat. As part of the 1st Armoured Brigade, the Crusader was to prove vital during the Battle of El Alamein, at Tobruk and in Tunisia.
Retained in service because of delays with its replacement, by late 1942, the lack of armament upgrades, plus reliability problems due to the harsh desert conditions and the appearance of Tiger I heavy tanks among the German Afrika Korps, saw the Crusader replaced as the main tank by US-supplied M3 Grant and then by the M4 Sherman medium tanks but it was retained in combat use until the end of the war in North Africa and after that for training purposes in Britain.
@Red0Bull Once I learn how to make them I would have collect th last infinity skill, allowing me to snap half of all below gold users out of existence.
It’s due to it being two separate aircraft with detachers holding them together. Because the second aircraft is a lifting body, it pushes up against the first aircraft, making the first one begin img to push down. @tucan

My biggest pet peeve is when someone doesn’t use the same formatting in their forum posts.
I know, I just got a new phone so let me start grading after school @Greggory005
@Greggory005 Unfortunately I dropped my phone in a harbor so please bear with me as I find another way to grade the performance of the aircraft.
Seems like a ploy to get you info, sorry Chief but I’m out
Cool art, still broke

You can use trim to fix

Thx to everyone on the AOT server for the constant harassment with F-14s <3
Imagine posting one build in a teaser
This comment was made by the wait a few months and post everything the same day gang
ERA for life
Prepare the drama!

Maximum Overdrive
Dang
Im not surprised this blown up lol. The community denies it but it does love some drama.
SP is twitter part 2, change my mind
@DonaldAs1515 Why would the post deserve to be removed? Also, isn't joeysellers a former dev and not a currently one?
@WereOutOfNames You didn't offend me, I just inform you of something you were unaware of
@Embo As an Imperial archivist, that would go against uniform regulations
@WereOutOfNames It's the thought that counts, not the historical accuracy
There is one Impostor among us
@Pizzaschnitzel The two would go to a hospital
@Pizzaschnitzel I just want to go back to my home
