[edit] I hadn't known of this vehicle. Thanks

It took a reading or two to understand how it was intended to be used, not because you weren't clear but that it was a distinctly different concept. Once I understood it, can its design be traced as influencing other military vehicles, not necessarily for the same purpose? I immediately thought of Armoured vehicle-launched bridge and wondered if there is any connection. Howard C. Berkowitz (talk) 20:45, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

Perhaps... I will add a section on that referes to modern day technology that may have originated from something like this. Dreamafter ^Talk 20:51, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

It is right here. Dreamafter ^Talk 21:09, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

I don't see this section; the link goes back to the same article. See Armoured vehicle-launched bridge. Apparently, the first AVLB was German and preceded the Heuschrecke, but it is probably fair to observe that the concept of a self-deploying (?) piece of equipment was German, and the idea has become common in AVLBs.

Yes, it was removed becuase it had little relevance. ~ Dreamy ^§ 20:19, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] More background

It would be good to know more about why they needed this vehicle and if it would replace other vehicles or equipment. Who made a request for the design (Amry commanders or just in general) etcGraemeLeggett (talk) 11:54, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
