About this creation
The Merkava is a main battle tank used by the Israel Defense Forces. The tank began development in 1973 and entered active service in 1978. Four main versions of the tank have been deployed. It was first used extensively in the 1982 Lebanon War. The "Merkava" name was derived from the IDF's initial development program name.

Unit cost $4.5 million
Armor Classified composite matrix of laminated ceramic-steel-nickel alloy. Sloped modular design.
Main armament 120 mm MG253 smoothbore gun, capable of firing LAHAT ATGM
Engine 1,500 hp (1,119 kW) turbocharged diesel engine
Power/weight 23 hp/ton
Payload capacity 48 rounds
Fuel capacity 1400 litres
Operational range 500 km (310 mi)
Speed 64 km/h (40 mph) on road

Merkava really doesn't have the lights like this in the back so if you don't want these lights, just remove them. I just made them for fun

Emergency exit.
