It entered service with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in the late 1970s, becoming a key component of the region’s armored units. It saw combat during the 1982 Lebanon War, proving effective thanks to its unique construction, which provided the crew with maximum safety and very high mobility in both desert and urban environments.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose Eduard 35574?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eExtremely precise reproduction of even the smallest details – the high quality of the photo-etched parts guarantees outstanding realism and significantly enhances the finish quality of your model.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCompatible with Tamiya models, ensuring every part fits seamlessly, speeding up the build process and eliminating the need for time-consuming modifications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAn excellent choice for intermediate and advanced modelers who wish to showcase their model as a contest exhibit or an impressive collection piece.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDifficulty level – 4\/5, due to the small and very thin elements, which require experience and precision.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    We recommend this product to all modelers who want to achieve maximum realism and take their Merkava Mk.
