5.0 out of 5 stars Warmachines No. 11 Merkava Mk2/Mk3, June 24, 2000

This review is from: Warmachines No. 11 - Merkava MK2/MK3, Israeli Defense Force (Paperback)

From a scale modeler's viewpoint, the book is a goldmine of information and inspiration. The photos are large, in color, and extremely vivid and clear, with new details popping out at you each time you look at them. Especially useful are the many views of the complex turret bustle rack with the "ball and chain" armor, and the often neglected turret top. The only area not covered at all is the bottom of the hull. The text is well-written and supports the photos very well.

Most of the 24 pages are dedicated to the Mk2 and Mk2B versions, with only a few covering the Mk3.

Overall, a wonderful publication which I would recommend highly to modelers and armor enthusiasts alike.

The book is simply brilliant. For everyone who is interested in israely tanks this book is a must.
Very sharp and clear photographs show most of the details of subject tank. Although the IDF is very sensitive about security issues the book shows many details and provides a good overview on the various marks of the Merkava tank.
