The Crusher has been built in small quantities by the planetary government of Crout. Its design reflects the high availability of fissionable fuels on the planet compared to the availability of hydrocarbon fuels. The Crusher units were formed more for purposes of prestige and overawing any potential rebels among the population than for practical combat use.
The three machine guns are mounted on a pintle by the commander's hatch in the turret, coaxially with the main gun, and in a ball mount on the bow.
