Description

The Crusader Gun Tractor: A Technical History The Crusader Gun Tractor was a vehicle designed to pull the 17-pounder anti-tank gun, while also making use of the production of the Crusader tank. In practice, it proved to be an excellent towing vehicle, but its origins as an armoured fighting vehicle required a high level of skill from its crews. This, in turn, highlighted the importance of superior training in ensuring vehicle reliability. The experiences of the units that used the Crusader Gun Tractor varied significantly, reflecting the impact of crew training on vehicle performance. This divergence in performance provides valuable insights into the reliability of tanks in general. This book provides a detailed technical history of the Crusader Gun Tractor, exploring its development, design, and operational use.
