1/72 Israel Merkava Mk.III
Trumpeter 1/72 Israel Merkava Mk.III is a plastic kit of the Israeli main battle tank. The kit has 70 parts. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The Merkava is an Israeli main battle tank whose design places exceptional emphasis on crew protection: the engine is mounted at the front, and a rear hull door makes it easier to replenish ammunition or carry personnel. The Mk.III was introduced in the late 1980s and was the first Merkava armed with a 120 mm smoothbore gun.
According to the manufacturer, the 2012 kit has 70 parts. The photo of the finished model shows the tank in the typical Israeli grey-green finish with machine guns on the turret and modular armour on the turret and hull sides.
The wedge-shaped turret and low hull give the model an unmistakable silhouette even in the small 1/72 scale. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
Nationality: Israel. Period: Cold War, Present day.
