- Self propelled howitzer and (I guess) resuply vehicle. Bad move not explaining those in the text - the artilce reads more like a brouchure than anything. GraemeLeggett 12:00, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Counterpart?
It states there is no known foreign counterpart, but isn't the Pz-2000 or maybe even the South-African G-5 pretty similar? Certainly the Pz-2000, since it was actually proposed as a replacement for the Crusader after its cancellation.
I added the AS90. I know of no reason it is not considered a counterpart. David.j.james 12:18, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Tons?
"Tons" are referred to. What sort? Short tons, long tons or metric tons?Blaise 20:43, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] No discussion of the decision to cancel Crusader
In 2002, SecDef Rumsfeld unceremoniously cancelled Crusader. Many in the US Army feel this to be an extremely bad decision and the beginnings of Rumsfeld's effort to turn the most powerful army on earth into the worlds largest commando unit. This demands discussion but I see it nowhere in American or international media.
- show a reference to the statement and then you can include it. Drew1369 15:07, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
