Description
After the 1967 conflict with Egypt, Israel found themselves in possession of numerous captured Egyptian T-55 tanks. Many were still functional, so Israel converted and upgraded these to the Tiran tank (in the West it is referred to as the Ti-67: Tank Israeli-1967). Many improvements made, including the replacement of the 100mm main gun to the Western 105mm, engine, transmission, fire control, night vision, rage finder, machine guns, numerous storage boxes and additional armor. Today it is mainly used by reserve units and they are being replaced by newer tanks as they become unserviceable.
Trumpeter recommends the Tamiya X and XF paint line for this kit. Please see the paint guide below for the suggested colors.
