Canadian Sexton II Sp Artillery

The Canadian Sexton was a self-propelled artillery vehicle mounting the British 25-pounder on a tank-derived chassis. It gave Commonwealth formations a mobile artillery system using familiar ammunition and firing methods. The Sexton II was a production development of that family and served in northwest Europe, where artillery mobility had to keep pace with advancing armored formations. Using the 25-pounder kept the system connected to Commonwealth artillery practices, while the tracked chassis improved cross-country movement compared with a towed gun and its tractor. The open compartment eased gun operation but exposed the crew. Sexton history is therefore a balance of mobility, familiar weapons, and the continuing logistical demands of field artillery.
