Isn't it the Yanks who are requiring this? Some sort of Defence materiel cooperation treaty, either you scrap the M113 or you don't get any more US defence materiel cooperation or equipment.

You know a cash for clunkers scheme, if the US can get countries with servicable US made equipment to crush it instead of selling it, the US can sell more stuff from the US military industrial complex.

What we need is to set up a shell company to take the M113 scrapping contract, take delivery of the buckets, and start surveying the machines to plan the destruction process, spend lots of money and go bankrupt. Then the receiver comes in and to try to recover the debts the reciever has to sell the assets, the buckets, to us as the highest bidders. The company that took the contract from Crown no longer exists and can not be held responsible.
