The Crusader retains the three [[Military Compartment]]s found in both of its predecessors, but trades the Chieftain's single Class 4 [[Internal Compartment]] for two Class 3 slots. This alteration provides slightly more flexibility in terms of module selection, but results in the same maximum cargo capacity as the Chieftain: 120t. | The Crusader retains the three [[Military Compartment]]s found in both of its predecessors, but trades the Chieftain's single Class 4 [[Internal Compartment]] for two Class 3 slots.

Compared to the Chieftain and the Challenger, the Crusader has lower mobility and multipurpose potential, as well as reduced weapons loadout versatility due to its lower number of total hardpoints. However, its ability to deploy up to two fighters simultaneously is something that should not be underestimated Therefore, the Crusader is a decent option for commanders who make good use of ship-launched fighters, but for commanders who do not require such a function or prefer not to make use of it, the Chieftain and Challenger are better suited to their needs. | Compared to the Chieftain and the Challenger, the Crusader has lower mobility and multipurpose potential, as well as reduced weapons loadout versatility due to its lower number of total hardpoints.
