Lançamento academy

Mas que blindado interessante, parece ser uma mistura de M-60 com o velho Centurion, dois carros de combate que Israel aliás utilizou(e modernizou) bastante

Uau.

O M-60 super vitaminado da IDF, o Brasil devia fazer algo parecido com seus Leo1.

Realmente é ótimo cada vez mais lançamentos de equipamento IDF.

Esse tem partes novas para torre e blindagem que segundo dizem é cópia do Legend e o casco é o mesmo do M60 antigo.

Quem sabe a Meng não lança o Magach 7

Abs!

É vero,ótimo lançamento ..............

Exato, apos a consolidaçaoda doutrina dos Leo I, uma upgrade nos moldes daquela feita pelo Canada, seria uma excelente opçao na minha opiniao e algo bme dentro da realidade brasileira...

Interessante mesmo.  No Wikipedia está lá:

Magach (מגח; Ma-GAKH) designation refers to a series of tanks in Israeli service. The tanks are based on the AmericanM48 and M60 Patton tanks. Magach 1, 2, 3 and 5 are based upon M48 tanks; Magach 6 and 7 are based upon M60 tanks.

The tanks were sold to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) by West Germany and later the United States, during the 1960s and 1970s. Several dozen Jordanian M48 tanks, captured intact during the 1967 Six Day War, were also commissioned into service, adding to Israel's 150 already in service at that time. During the war, the Israeli tanks served in their original (American) configuration.

Following the 1967 war, several modifications were made to improve the tank to M48A3 level, resulting with the Magach 3. These modifications included replacement of the original 90 mm cannon gun with the British 105 mm L7, lowering the command turret's profile, upgraded communication suite, and replacement of the flammable and weak gasoline engine with a 750 hp diesel one.

When the Yom Kippur War broke out, Israel had a total of 540 M48A3 (with 105mm gun) and M60A1 tanks.^[1][2] During the war, the tanks suffered heavy losses. The location of flammable hydraulic fluid at the front of the turret was discovered to be a severe vulnerability. After the war Israel had only about 200 M48A3 and M60A1 tanks, after a large number of Israeli tanks were destroyed or terminally hit during the war, mostly in the Sinai front in fighting against the Egyptian army.^[1] The war's losses were replaced with new M48A5 (Magach 5) and M60 (Magach 6) during the 1970s.

Prior to the 1982 invasion of Lebanon (1982 Lebanon War), Magach 6 tanks were fitted with explosive reactive armor(ERA). Further work has been done on the upgraded Magach 6 models, including new armor, Merkava-based tracks, new fire controls, a thermal sleeve for the gun and smoke dischargers, eventually resulting in the Magach 7 model which is still in use with the IDF.

Since the 1980s and 1990s, the Magachs are gradually replaced with Merkava tanks as Israel's front-line main battle tank. However, the large majority of the IDF's armored corps continued to consist of Magach variants until the 1990s, and the tank was continuously upgraded during this time.

By 2006 all Magachs in regular units have been replaced with the Merkava. However, Merkava production to Israel has been halted so Magachs in reserve units will be in service for many years to come.

In 2013, the IDF announced that they were retiring all the Magach versions from the army due to budget cuts and the fact that regular soldiers who trained and operated Merkava's during their service then had to retrain for the Megach's during their reserves. The Magachs will be replaced by Merkava 2's and Merkava 3's in reserve service.
