RE: M60A3
Agreed, the Sabra סאברא is a very intimidating tank. Israel up graded the M-60A3 in the mid 1980s and it looks more like an M-1 than a 60. It was fitted with a specially upgraded 120mm gun, thermal sleeve and improved fire control. Added armor was the flat reactive armor plates on the bow, turret and fitted skirts. The AV 1790 dielsel engine was upgraded with 2 superchargers which gave it a speed of 30 mph, but the tank weighed 55 tons. It was used also in Turkey, but the Sabra has been replaced by the Merkava. It would be a nice tank to model, but from what I have read, wasn't used very long.
