The Magach 6 was an Israeli tank from the post-war and modern times. The first vehicles of this type appeared in service in the mid-1970s. The armament consisted of a single 105mm cannon, two 7.62mm and 12.7mm Browning machine guns and a 60mm light mortar.
In the 1960s, the Israeli army began to equip its armored forces with new M48 tanks, imported mainly from the USA, and from 1970 - the M60 Patton. As for those times, they were modern cars, but the experience of the Israeli army from the Yom-Kippur war (1973) showed that these vehicles had disadvantages. To remedy them, it was decided to introduce numerous modifications to them, which led to the creation of, among others, the Magach 6 tanks. The Magach 6 tanks are based on the M60, M60A1 and M60A3 vehicles. They all have the so-called Urdan commander's turret and "Blazer" reactive armor. In addition to the basic version, there were other versions, including: Magach 6 B (with engine AVDS-1790-2C RISE), Magach 6 B Gal (version with the fire control system Gal) or Magach 6 B Gal Batach (version with SKO Gal, new armor and a different shape of the tower). Cars of this type took part mainly in the operation in Lebanon in 1982.
