Austin K6 Gantry truck!Just saw this photo posted on my Regiments OCA page, pack change on a crusader in 1943 - don’t think I have ever seen that set up with a jib and pulley on the back of a truck.

a stalemate of sorts wouldnt be a disaster since it invites further german commitment like in otl even without successes .Especially if they cancel crete invasion they can support north africa instead or assign the troops to the soviet invasion .
Ooh, that's interesting. I mean, any Uranus-analogue is a long way off, and butterflies may indeed flap their wings (and Reichenau not give him a dead man's boots to fill), but if Paulus gets something of a better feel for the issues with extended supply lines and operational vulnerability to flanking manoeuvers and indeed the vital need for antitank weaponry in infantry units then that particular debacle may go somewhat differently ITTL.1 May 1941. El Agheila, Libya.
...General Paulus had been sent from Berlin to try to make sure that the probing attacks that Rommel had made in March, which had led to quite a lot of casualties, wouldn’t be repeated...
Furious later sails east with Force Z?A butterfly of holding Cyrenaica, is that Malta Runs are not needed to deliver aircraft. Instead, Argus, Furious, Ark Royal and occasionally Victorious can focus on delivering more aircraft to Takoradi. I suspect that this butterfly alone may free up another carrier for the Mediterranean Fleet sometime during summer. In general, I think the Commonwealth airforces in the Middle East will be a bit stronger in TTL.
There is also the fact that probably Formitable doesn't get hit. The Stukas that damaged her were operating from Cyrenaica in OTL. It may be that ABC will have a carrier to assist him in raids against Tripoli-bound shipping.
Or can be used in the Indian Ocean as an Aircraft transport - allowing more aircraft to be deployed faster?Furious later sails east with Force Z?
I miss his writing, same with Astrodragon. Does anyone know what happened to either of them?Some Zheng He vibes there...

That would require a Peerless Air Ministry to get sorted. However if British tank losses in the Western Desert are less catastrophic than OTL Sonnenblume and Battleaxe then there will be more to be sent to Malaya in the autumn of 1941, which may make significant difference to the ground campaign... if they are used effectively.Or can be used in the Indian Ocean as an Aircraft transport - allowing more aircraft to be deployed faster?
Force Z should have been able to have been covered by land based air
Even with less losses the surviving tanks are probably worn out & would require expensive, in both man-hours & cash, refurbishment & it may be better to just salvage what can be & scrap the rest. Rather than sending it to a quiet backwater like Malaya as everyone knows tanks can't be used in the jungle anyway.However if British tank losses in the Western Desert are less catastrophic than OTL Sonnenblume and Battleaxe then there will be more to be sent to Malaya in the autumn of 1941, which may make significant difference to the ground campaign... if they are used effectively.
Its still here but last log in was Sept last year.Astrodragon has to log in since May 10th. However, I cannot find Zheng He's profile. Has he deleted it?
With 2 Brigades attacking 2 Divisions I'm not surprised to see them being forced to retreat.2 May 1941. Libya.
