[CharmingLordSausage]

We need the IDF to deal with Tower Hamlets in London, UK.

[Xenosjiasai]

Shalom. The cost of freedom is eternal vigilance. Period.

[DORORONET]

завидуйте молча россии !! !! !!

[VooDooISR]

@DORORONET

завидовать пока на танковом полигоне мы стреляем по танкам российского производства? с вашими танками уже лучше на ладе кататся

[DORORONET]

сосите хуй черножопые это тинк россии !! !! !!

[Fvilone]

I AM NOT ISRAEL BUT I LOVE THEIR DETERMINATION AND THEIR ARMOURIES WHICH IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD ONLY SECOND TO THE US .

ALL THE RESPECT LOVE ISRAEL 

[tejon0091]

Странная конструкция, детям понравится.

[VooDooISR]

@tejon0091

На самом деле этот танк списан с производства, слишком много стоит

[bywukime]

what's the name of the music ?

[bywukime]

The IDF has all my respect.

[jckeil21]

יש הגיון לשמור את עובי הטנק? עם מערכות הגנה אקטיבית ניתן להפחית את משקל הטנק...

[AVIV222]

זה יותר משחית טנקים מאשר טנק

[DrHavoc1]

If Arabs wanted peace, there would be peace on Monday. Arabs want Israel with its residents dead, and that is the bottom line.

[maydayfire]

@DrHavoc1 the peace that have in mind is a forced one, one without justice, For us muslims peace is meaningless without justice and eradication of oppression. So either stop your oppression or we will eradicate you oppressors.

[VooDooISR]

@maydayfire

remind me to save a bullet for you

[elker101]

large tank warfare are a thing of the past, armies need to prepare for quick and decisive skirmishes that tanks play a smaller role. air power and highly maneuverable ground troops in fast moving apc and fighting vehicles will take the lead and taking and holding territory.

[BorshCaen]

Cobra tank of the House of Ordos..

[daltonagre]

Electric armour would be a better choice for tanks in the future.

[schhhhitzo]

What is this? the Israeli Hello Kitty Defense? Good luck Guys...

[VooDooISR]

@schhhhitzo

If it really is the Merkava MK5 tank, and I'm pretty sure it's not, the project has been canceled due to the high price of production of these machines

[yehudam25]

יש בעיה אחד בעיצוב ,שאין לו צריח לתותח וזה טעות. טנק בלי צריח יכול לירות לכוון אחד בלבד ולירות על מה שיש מלפנים ולא מצדידים ואיפלו מאחורה. זה טעות גדולה מאוד ,הוא אהיה פגיע מאוד.

טנק עם מערכת טעינה אוטומטית יכול לירות עד 12 פגזים בדקה (לפי נתונים של תותח אוטומטי שמותקן בתותח של גרמנים) ועם צריח יכול לירות לכל כוונים ולא רק לכוון אחד ,המאפשר הישרדות טוב מאוד בשדה קרב עתידי.

[FireStorm81318]

מלכתחילה, אין לי המון מושג, אבל:

אפילו כשאין אנשים בפנים, המנוע עדיין מקדימה? לא יהיה ייתרון לשים אותו מאחורה ואת החימוש מקדימה (פונה קדימה)? כך לא יהיה צורך ברוטציה לחימוש, וסביר שאם פגזים יעופו החוצה מפיצוץ, עדיף שיהיה גם בכיוון קדימה

מלבד זאת, האם יש סיבה להסתיר בפנים את המקלע, והאם אחד יספיק? קראתי גם שבמלחמת יום כיפור המצרים ממש עלו על הטנקים שלנו פיזית, 2 מקלעים יכולים לפתור בעיה כזאת וכנראה גם לפגוע ביותר מטרות

אני לא יודע עד כמה סביר שדגם כזה אכן ייבנה, אבל התצוגה יפה מאוד

[amitaknin]

שלום @FireStorm81318

הסיבות למנוע בחזית הרק"ם:

1. שימור תצורת המרכבות והנמר לטובת שימש באותם רכיבי מזק"ם.

2. מנוע חזיתי שנפגע גורם לעצירת הכלי, תחמושת שנפגעת תגרום להשמדתו.

3. הסיבה לרוטציה בתחמושת היא שינוע הפגזים ע"י דפינת הקרקוב בין צמד מסועים שונים, לניצול החלל האחורי ברק"ם.

[amitaknin]

הסיבה שהמקלע מוסתר בפנים הינה להנמכת הצללית. בעיקר בשלב תפיסת עמדות תצפית.

לדעתי אין צורך בעוד מקלע, מכיון שכוח שריון נלחם בצורה מיטבת כמספר רב של כלים.

זיהוי ואיפיון המטרות הוא החלק הבעיתי, ולעומתו השמדתם הינה פשוטה יותר בהיתחשב במספר הקנים בכוח.

בכול אופן תודה רבה. שמחתי לשמוע את דעתך.

[FireStorm81318]

@amitaknin תודה על תשובתך

[Jasonbjamin]

You people talk to much shit but you dont even have the life experience to back it.. I say If you havent been there shut up

[ericssson]

you don't need that shit to shoot unarm Palestinian children

[amitaknin]

I will not fall into your cheap trap, but only mention thet as tank commander,I did not fire on rocket launchers because two miles behind them was a school, confabulations was empty at the time.

At the same time, I'd love to know who you are, where you are coming from, and how your country would react to eight years of rocket fire on its citizens. Looking for peace, preparing for war. Welcome to my reality!

[toro199999]

@amitaknin you wont fall into his cheap trap but the merkava will this tank has been hit by every thing and destroyed many times even with RPGs

[WarDogTheAwesome]

@toro199999 all tanks get destroyed by rpgs idiot and no it can witstand 3 rpgs before it will not work and no it hasnt been destroyed alot of times the merkava is one of the best tanks ever to be made all 4 of them

[toro199999]

@WarDogTheAwesome ok so you say it's the best blah blah anyway..learn to speak politely dont call people "idiots"..i'm a mechanical engineer specialized in armaments and military industries and i'm only 25 years old..learn to talk to people with little respect shame on you

[WarDogTheAwesome]

@toro199999 im sure you are mean while i dont give a rat ass

[toro199999]

@WarDogTheAwesome and i'm sure you're bad in english as a 5 years old kid which make you one..grow up and learn how to make an adult conversation then come and talk to people

[WarDogTheAwesome]

@toro199999 why would i bro you insult somthing of my country you mean NOTHING to me

[toro199999]

@WarDogTheAwesome ok what you wrote just didnt make ANY SENSE your words are incoherent and misspelled, ok here's what you should do:

1-learn to speak english

2-learn to talk with manners and respect

3-mmmmm get a life while you at it

4-please stop wasting mine

[WarDogTheAwesome]

@toro199999 If you sriously can't get that I'm sorry to say you need to learn english you're self because its very simple to understand oh and I have a life, you can go and find one you're self and what is "Incoherent"? Do you mean "Incorrect"?

[ericssson]

@amitaknin keep on killing unarm civilians ass hole

Israel is a superficial state that lives because the U.S wants it to live

it's a JOKE

[amitaknin]

ok, anything else?

[WarDogTheAwesome]

@ericssson your a joke bro your a joke

[Harmonoize]

@ericssson

It is ok that palestinian terrorists fire rockets intentially on civilians

but when israel kill terrorists, suddenly they are innocent.

I don't blame you, you are a victim of a brainwash.

If you think I'm wrong, try living in israel for few months.

[MrAvraham4]

@amitaknin מצדיעים ומתגאים בך עמית

we are proud of our soldiers and salute them!!!

[libertateaaa]

@amitaknin you forgat sampting

israel take the land from palestina sow you are not the victim you are the killer

[amitaknin]

I do not blame you, you're part of successfull twenty years brainwashing against Israel . I am not perfect, and probably on the outside I seem aggressive, but unlike my neighbors the Palestinians, I'm willing to give up a lot for the co-existence. Go and learn history, facts only, and see by yourself who you believe in this prolonged conflict. Shabbat Shalom.

[xassxass]

@libertateaaa They did not take the land. Please read some history. Lets drive all palestinians out of Gaza for 2000 years. And let them live all threwout the world- with no right to vote, own land, or even get a citizenship- because their land is in Gaza.. then exterminate them all from UK, and also drive them threw a holocaust - and regular do this in all the places they live. Then after 2000 years ask them: Where is their homeland? Gaza? Or ?.. Arabs also agreed to a jewish state back in 1920

[starknight97]

@amitaknin At least Iron dome is up running yet it needs much more like THEEL systems & long range anti ballistic or ICBM systems too. yet both side have been evil here on Israeli side take back old Israeli and up rooting the people that are there so they starve isn't good. yet shooting rockets too kills babies and blowing up a school bus also is very evil.

[martydrooo]

@amitaknin not exactly sure how building more settlements and bulldozing houses is looking for peace...

[VooDooISR]

@martydrooo

Live in Israel for a while, and then talk about what is considered peace and what is not, you might realize things are much more complicated than you think

[martydrooo]

@VooDooISR I've made aliyah and lived on a kibbutz for a year and in tel aviv for another year, with lots of family in Israel. The military right wingers are sociopaths who want nothing to do with peace.

[martydrooo]

@VooDooISR Sorry I've just realized who I'm talking to...a russian "jew" ahahaha...you have zero jewish genes or blood, no tie to israel whatsoever...go back to russia we dont want you in israel...

[jewishwithpride]

@ericssson You is just a dumbass. Palestinian militants is the real cowards, they dont need israeli soldiers to shoot at theyr kids, because theyr already use his own childrens and womans as shields.

[FysikFyren]

@ericssson I don't approve on anyone shooting children, but it is hard to deny pictures of palestinianen firing rockets from schools other civilian buildings. Since no one from their own territory stops them I find it easy to undestand why the other side tries.

[Laranzava]

@ericssson children? don't you mean Lil' terrorists :P

[Wesley95501]

Can it protect it self from bullets?

[WarDogTheAwesome]

@Wesley95501 thats what the armour is for :P thats kinda the point of tanks

[ActiveStorage]

so it needs to be retracted all the time to reload the gun. thats slow. and lame

[WarDogTheAwesome]

@ActiveStorage ... you relise you dont need to fire that much with the tanks cannon right? you do know that right? and its not lame bro no people to get killed in it and its still a tank please bro learn somthing

[djomercohen]

this is not the merkava mk5,

[WarDogTheAwesome]

@djomercohen wanna bet? theres no merkava mk5 yet its still in build

[starknight97]

nice it about time with the other big boys making new tanks. Close too prefect problems i see. Not going with a 150mm gun and the arms have a hard time lifting it or it'll be too slow if you do. 2. your losing the extra crew as in no infantry or at troops. 3.Only 1 machine gun 2 or 3 is better. you can attack or defend more then 1 angle and in case one gets hit.

[WarDogTheAwesome]

@starknight97 theres no space and no way it will fit the guns i mean it needs to be very small and as light as it can get and the cheapest as it can get

[starknight97]

@WarDogTheAwesome though added troops gives tank protection from troops and amps it power if they are anti tank troops. On modern days tanks this what pushes the mk4 over any other MBT today. if she brings along just 2 anti tank troops she more powerful then any other MBT one on one.

[WarDogTheAwesome]

@starknight97 interesting maybe they still didnt finish that so it might be

[starknight97]

@WarDogTheAwesome that's what I'm hoping and the designs are very early. After all i think Israel just keeping up with the the world powers since the both the u.s(m1a3) and Russia(Amanda) are working on their next MBT.

[Phyllocrania]

interessantes Design!

[nationalgeowulf]

fucking future

[GoldenTagachi]

just so that people will understand..if they got it by some strange reason..this is a fake tank its not real and no its not in development..

[TheSoulofDrawing]

that would be a good unmanned "recon" tank...

interesting concept in my opinion.

use then to provoke the enemy and lure then while the true attack is coming from another direction.

that's 21st century war people...

[wilsonsanz45]

bump the monitoring system by the turret.. hah.

[warriorofsteel01]

WHAT THE FUCK! its an automated vehicle....bullshit

[WarDogTheAwesome]

@warriorofsteel01 thats what you all said about the first merkava israel has already made alot of automated stuff from boats to planes now tanks have probs?

[blackcountryme]

Looks like an updated s-tank but with full moving gun, interesting... i like tanks not mobile gun platforms. No turret.... no tank `fin

[captainden]

Stupid. It's an anti-tank gun not a real tank.



[byhybyhy]

איך אתה פותר את בעיית הרתע בתותח? עדיין 120 מ"מ? יש תוסף קינטי לירי?

[belarepa]

Is this the future of tanks? No real turret, just a gun? I saw the same concept in russia to.

anyway this concept is bad... merkava always had been an APC too + front engine.

[ilkhanX]

Cool Isreals the worlds strongest military.

So can the US stop being your baby-sitter?

Is a pretty good defencive tank destroyer design.

Could be in full defilade, and stick that gun over the burm and pad your stats:).

[pillemankacktus]

@ilkhanX haha nice one xD its the us who made israel to an strong military (but never !!!NEVER!!! the strongest of the world), propably the best in the near east.germany, uk, france, russia and usa have a much more stronger military.*sry for bad english*

[diadorim1234]

@pillemankacktus Dude, israel won 5 wars in 60 years, germany lost all wars between 1914 - 1945.

[pillemankacktus]

@diadorim1234 no germany wons many wars befor the 1ww. look at the fucking numbers, how many soldiers,tanks, ifv`s, transport helicopters, attack helicopter and so on israel have. israel wons this wars because the support of the united states.i dont mean that israel have a bad military, its good bud germany is today stronger and i dont hate you, i like israel ;-)

[diadorim1234]

@pillemankacktus I am not israeli, i am dutch. israel has 44.000 armored fighting vehicles, thats more then germany and even the US.

[pillemankacktus]

@diadorim1234 haha cant stop laughting xD 44.000 ? are you fuckin kidding me ? they have 150.000 soldiers(110.000 liable for military service) 4000 tanks ( most of them are old merkava2 and M60`s) 400 rusty planes xD right they have more than germany but its like you fight with 50.000 old shermans against 100 leopard2 or abrams, you would lose^^ us have 7500 abrams more than 500.000 soldiers more than 4000 aircrafts, carriers many thousand IFV´s and so on. us would fuck the world(im german) ;-)

[diadorim1234]

@pillemankacktus Learn english. Where the fuck are you talking about? Everybody knows that israel at full mobilization has a larger armored force then the US: 44.000 arored fighting vehicles.

[pillemankacktus]

@diadorim1234 sorry i can´t speak english very well but you are an idiot where the fuck israel get this 44.000 vehicles ? thats more than us and russia togeter ! sorry but that is the biggest shit i ever read... belief what you want and be happy, but it dont changes the truth ;-)

[JustineBieberxoxo]

@pillemankacktus You forget everyone in Israel is in the armed forces. Male and female, everyone. They can all be mobilised, plus the little thing of infantry not fighting on foot outside urban centres these days, but moving around in apc's and ifv's. In that light 44.000 doesn't seem that massive anymore, if you count the population of Israel. Most likely they will not disclose the true number but rest assured it's a fuckton.

[diadorim1234]

@pillemankacktus Go and read harry potter.

[pillemankacktus]

@diadorim1234 and why us would give israel more tanks as them self ? israel is like a colony of america.

[invader519]

@pillemankacktus

Israel is producing their own tanks,called merkava (chariot)

[pillemankacktus]

@invader519 *warning, fu**n bad english;-)* i know, merkava are a realy nice tank but you cant compare it with the german leopard 2 or abrams because he is designed for desert^^ i realy support israel but i hate it when people say something like that israel have more than 44.000 IFV´s WTF ;-) im german and i dont say germany have more tanks than us and russia together xD

[invader519]

@pillemankacktus

indeed! the merkava is only made for Israeli terrain,it will fail in germany,holland etc. because it's a big motherfucker and can't manouver very well in such terrain,on the other hand the leo 2 and the abrahams will fail in the desert against the merkava.

because these things were specially designed and build for this purpose

[pillemankacktus]

@invader519 exactly, these tanks are desighned for different terrains. no, im german ;-)

[WarDogTheAwesome]

@invader519 you are wrong merkava 1 2 and 3 can handle any terrain the tanks arent build for only our deserty terrain but all the terrein cuz we never know what we will face next

[invader519]

@pillemankacktus

oh en ben je nou een nederlander of duitser?

[bestamerica]

'

that is american own computer design,,,

what is the name of computer

[Asdsadasdasa]

MERKAVA = ISRAEL!!!!!!!!

The world's most powerful military

[djomercohen]

thats not a merkava mk.5 tank, its a non-manned mini tank

[germanovich3D]

Идея очень хорошая!!!!!!

[GoldenTagachi]

wheres the computer that runs the reloading?

wheres are all the rockets put in place?

[sivshani]

It is NOT Merkava 5.

it is a crewless small tank

[scarab088]

i dont think this is a good design. when people look at a tank, they need to be scared. this doesnt look scary. look t the mk 4. it looks like a beast and is awesome.

[RobotN001]

1 hit by RPG-2

[TurboFly07]

i could see the weapons interfering with each other and the infra-red sensor too, someone will accidentally destroy their own equipment if it turns out like that, nice concept tho

[IDFrules]

@TurboFly07 .....I would bet they thought of interference so I doubt it's a problem and even if it is at least it's crew-less

[silverdragon994]

the number of people that actually want to go to fight is getting lower not to talk about people who wanna be in a tank cuz we train so hard! so they invented this tank!

[superwout]

It would be typical of the IDF to surprise friend and foe alike with this innovative idea !

Great concept that would put the rest of the world a step behind !

[DisgorgeKILLusa]

выносная установка орудия будет очень уязвима в представленной концепции

[TuduMovies]

This is quite old... Something like this was designed already back at 1990-1995

Crewless tanks are just fighting machines.. IT IS THE MAN IN THE TANK That WinsThe Battle!

[superwout]

@TuduMovies yes but nobody has wanted to roll it out into reality and I don't think it's meant to be unmanned , it's just they didn't bother to draw a crew into this simulation

[amitaknin]

Tudu????

sleep on your nose (sounds better in Hebrew)

[superwout]

@amitaknin some people simply don't recognize a good thing when they see it !

I'm the biggest Merkava fan on the Western hemisphere , I hope they even put an electromagnetic railgun on it , or a 140 mm would be exquisite

[Devl0r666]

What a crap vehicle.

[rmehler430]

Whose music?
