Description

The Merkava Mark 3 was introduced in December 1989 and was in production until 2003.As of 2016, the Merkava III was the most numerous tank in frontline IDF service.Compared to the Merkava II, it has upgrades to the drivetrain, powertrain, armament, and electronic systems.The most prominent addition was the incorporation of the locally developed IMI 120 mm gun.This gun and a larger 1,200 horsepower (890 kW) diesel engine raised the total weight of the tank to 65 tonnes (143000 lb), but the larger engine raised the maximum cruising speed to 60 km/h (37 mph).

Modeled in BlenderTurret, hull, braides, guns van be printed separately for ease of print and to allow the turret to swivel.
