Anyone know what units are represented in the kit decals?

I would have like to have seen a full review on this kit, including the usual scans and photos of everything. It's a bit cumbersome to have to check two reviews to get the low down on a kit.

I have built the kit and it is very nice over all.

I don't have the instructions handy but as I recall the markings represent a couple of tanks from the Golan and 1 or 2 from Sinai. All are based on real tanks.

If you check this web sight there is an excellent reference on the Shot Kal

Here are a couple pics of mine

Well, since you mention the instructions, they're somewhat lacking in this kit. What is this, the third fourth evolution of this kit? And they STILL haven't fixed the instructions which fail to show the clear periscope being installed on the roof underneath the cover. I don't know the part number off the top of my head but I've even mentioned it in other threads. The instructions for this kit also have you install an incorrect antenna base (not yet in use in 1973) on the right rear of the turret. That's also been mentioned in other threads as well.
