Nice start to the add-on armour. Not very familiar with IDF armour so I can't give much advice
cheers
One of the serious problems in planning against Canadian doctrine is that the Canadians do not read their manuals, nor do they feel any obligations to follow their doctrine.

I guess that you are identifying the subject of the model as the :
"Magach 6B Gal Batash"
Not a Magach 6B, and not Magach 6B Gal.

Dear Shane
You picture 2 is NOT a long turret Magach 6B Gal Batash, but a Magach 7Gimel (round turret).
All other are OK,,

He's right "Shanelangston", the secend photo is a (Magach 7Gimel ) but that ok as the chassis of both the Magach 6 and 7 are much the same. You may want to point that out next time.
An "Shanelangston" thanks for posting those grate photo man!

"HE" would like to say to Blackwater, that the chasis of the Magach 7/7Gimel (based on M60) , is NOT the same as the subject of the thread , the Magach 6B Gal Batash, based on the M60A1 RISE hull.
Looks like there is a big mix here with the Magach -Patton derivatives, thus I was posted the list..

Thanks for pointing that out folks! Need to move that vehicle to the right ref folder !
Glad you are here Michael to keep it straight.
If I might ask Michael Mass, is the 115mm Soviet main gun appropriate for a Tiran 6?
Sorry Blackwater, I am not trying to highjack your thread, i just thought I would ask as an authority is watching this thread!

Hello Shane,
Not quite the subject of the thread... I agree
Yes, all Tiran 6 were serving WITH the original smooth bore 115mm main gun.
