The IDF Achzarit is a heavy armored personnel carrier that was developed by the Israeli Defence Forces Corps of Ordnance in the late 1980s. It is based on the chassis of the Soviet T-54/T-55 tank, which was captured from Arab armies during the Arab-Israeli wars. The IDF Achzarit has a high level of protection, as it is fitted with composite and reactive armor that can withstand anti-tank weapons and projectiles. The IDF Achzarit can carry up to seven infantrymen in a spacious troop compartment, which has a rear door for entry and exit.
The IDF Achzarit is armed with three machine guns, one of which is remotely controlled from inside the vehicle. The IDF Achzarit has been used by the IDF in various conflicts, such as the South Lebanon conflict, the Second Intifada, the 2006 Lebanon War and the Gaza War. The IDF Achzarit is a unique and effective solution for urban warfare, as it provides mobility and firepower for the soldiers.
