The monograph focuses on Israeli variants of the heavy Caterpillar D9 bulldozer, known as DOOBI. After being adapted by the Israeli defense industry, these machines were armored and tailored for a variety of combat tasks. They have been widely used in Middle Eastern conflicts from the 1980s to the present day, during operations such as “Defensive Shield” and “Cast Lead.” The armored D9 DOOBI have become iconic during actions in the Gaza Strip and West Bank, and their use has included mine-clearing, obstacle demolition, construction of protective berms, as well as support of infantry and armored units.

The publication includes:

• Dozens of unique, color photographs of vehicle details and full views, taken both during combat operations and at technical displays
• Detailed descriptions of the development of DOOBI variants – from the earliest versions to the latest modified models
• Blueprints, diagrams, and close-up photos of elements such as the armored cab, dozer blade, armament, and additional systems
• The historical background of the vehicle’s creation and its evolution in IDF service
• Comparisons of variants and explanation of differences in equipment configuration used in different periods and locations
• Tips, inspiration, and illustrations useful for modelers working on projects in scales such as 1/35 or 1/72

Desert Eagle Publishing DEP-07 monograph is an essential item for advanced modelers interested in IDF military vehicles, building plastic, resin, and 3D-printed models. This publication will be equally valuable for enthusiasts of modern military history, dioramas, and recreating areas of military operations. Thanks to its rich photographic and technical documentation, this book is a universal guide and knowledge source useful at every stage of model building.

I recommend this product to all intermediate and advanced modelers—especially those who want to recreate IDF vehicles with the highest attention to detail. Model completion difficulty on a scale of 1-5: 3 – requires basic knowledge of armored vehicles and interpretation of reference materials.
