Crusader registration numbers
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Hi Jim! Hi Folks! Sorry I don't know the answer to your question. But I have a question for you. Where is that vehicle at? The wall with the wire on top has me thinking that vehicle is in Iraq. Interesting, Sgt, Scouts Out! _________________ "You can never have too much reconnaissance." General G.S. Patton Jr.

Pity as we suspect its a Mark I CS upgraded to Mark II CS standard. The absence of the gun complicates matters.... _________________ TTFN Jim If your not a member of JED then your not serious about anything military.. ********************* www.jedsite.info JED Military Equipment *********************

Mk.I CS upgraded to Mk.II CS Standard? That could explain these extra armour plates on the hull and small turret omitted. These features combined with early gun mantletÃ¢â‚¬Â¦ hm, this could be a pretty rare kindercoach.
CS variants had (reportedly) extra ammo racks in the space below and instead of small turret. Have you found something like that or special fittings for such racks at least??
