==Description==
The '''''Kruger''''' was described as a license-produced variant of another (unspecified) PoliceMech that had been named ''Kruger'' in [[New Capetown]] service.<ref name=DD>''Dingane's Day''</ref><br />The specific description as being a variant of an "old Coventry PoliceMech" strongly suggests it to be a variant of the ''[[Copper]]'', which has been in production since the [[Star League era]] and is the only known PoliceMech associated with [[Coventry]] or [[Coventry Metal Works]] together with its progenitor, the PK-6 ''[[Peacemaker (IndustrialMech)|Peacemaker]]''.

It is not stated what kind of engine drives the ''Kruger'', except that it is not a [[fusion engine]].<ref name=DD/> (The ''Copper'' is equipped with a [[fuel cell]], or an [[ICE]] instead in its earliest incarnation; the ''Peacemaker'' features a fusion engine.)

The exact configuration is not specified either. [[Machine gun]]s are mentioned, but it was also noted that "others" (impicitly referring to individual ''Kruger''s, possibly subvariants) had been armed with [[flamer]]s or even missiles.<ref name=DD/>

==History==
 
The ''Kruger'' was deployed by the Order Police on [[New Capetown]]. It was involved in the Vilmanstad Massacre of [[2998]] where unarmed protesters were fired upon in what was called a slaughter in the capital that was seared into the planetary consciousness.<ref name=DD/>
