That's taken an M-60 series tank (most likely, they began with an M-60A3) and then upgraded it about as far as it could BE upgraded ... and then some!
I have a liking to the M-60 tanks as I spent my first 5 years of my Army career in either M60A1 tanks or M60A3s ... with a short stretch on an M48A5 - which basically puts M60A1 electronics, fire control, & gun in an M48 (round) Turret - it also had a slightly different hull, but the M48 is the Daddy to the whole M-60 series of tanks. And fine, dependable machines they were! I'll bet the IDF appreciated them, too. A bit crowded inside, though!
Stunning build...nice work indeed.
Awesome build, fantastic paintwork
Very nice build and weathering!
What colour paint did you use?
Look forward to hearing from you

Great Magach, I really like this IDF machine, one of the best! Great paint-job and weathering!
Another lovely IDF hulk with excellent realism in the weathering and finishing. Well done!
