Badass Tank Video
Courtesy of an Israeli friend, I give you this video of the Merkava 4 (broadband recommended).

No other major tank can match the Merkava’s rear exit, but those dismounting infantry will be useful for the maintenance required on the tanks in some of the shots in this clip.

I am Crl. (Retired), Armored Cavalry, of the army of Chile.
We have Leopard 1A5 and Leopard 2A5.
I am looking for information and movies about the Merkava 4 tank of the IDF.

In your web site I can not download it.
¿Can you help me?
