Album of 13 photos of a Magach 7

Photo galery of a Magach 7, Magach designation refers to a series of tanks in Israeli service. The tanks are based on the American M48 and M60 Patton tanks. Magach 1, 2, 3 and 5 are based upon M48 tanks; Magach 6 and 7 are based upon M60 tanks.

The M60 Patton is a main battle tank (MBT) introduced in December 1960.[5] With the United States Army’s deactivation of their last (M103) heavy tank battalion in 1963, the M60 became the Army’s primary tank during the Cold War. Although developed from the M48 Patton, the M60 series was never officially classified as a Patton tank, but as a “product-improved descendant” of the Patton series. In March 1959, the tank was officially standardized as the 105 mm Gun Full Tracked Combat Tank M60.

Nakajima B5N2 ‘Kate’

A model of the brand Airfix the kit : Grumman F4F-4 Wildcat Starter Set – Airfix A55214.

Scale: 1:72 Skill: 3 Flying Hours: 1 Number of Parts: 107

The Nakajima B5N2 ‘Kate’ was the most numerous Japanese torpedo bomber of the Second World War and while primarily operated as a torpedo bomber from carriers, it also saw service as a land based bomber. A single engine monoplane, it was defended by just one rearward firing machine gun, operated by the radio operator, and its relatively low speed left it vulnerable to enemy fighters, perfoming well at Pearl Harbour and going on to have success at the Battle of the Coral Sea and Midway.

Pz.Kpfw.IV mit Panther F Turret

A model of the brand Dragon Models the kit : Pz.Kpfw.IV mit Panther F Turret – DML 6824

This 1/35 scale plastic kit represents in plastic the fruition of that project’s ambition. The highly detailed kit is closely based on Dragon’s leading model of the Panzer IV, and of course it features an appropriately rendered Panther Ausf.F turret. In fact, to accommodate the new turret, the upper hull has been completely retooled with the correct details. The unique-looking tank also wears a set of detailed side skirts. While the design was destined to be confined to history as yet another paper panzer, this kit offers modelers the chance to build and enjoy something of an oddity!
