The Merkava Mark II was first introduced into general service in April 1983. While fundamentally the same as the Merkava I, it incorporated numerous small adjustments as a result of the previous year's incursion into Lebanon. The new tank was optimized for urban warfare and low-intensity conflicts, with a weight and engine no greater than the Mark I. The Mark IID version came with modular composite armor on the chassis and turret, allowing rapid replacement of damaged armor.

Features:

  • Four marking choices are available
  • Anti-slip texture included
  • Photo-etched parts included
  • Workable tracks

PRODUCT REVIEW

We recently had the pleasure of building an advance copy of the Border Model 1/35 IDF Merkava MK.2D Full Interior Tank Kit, and we must say, it's an impressive model kit for any serious armor enthusiast. Here are some of the standout features that make this kit a must-have:

  1. Marking Choices: One of the highlights of this kit is the availability of four different marking choices. This allows modelers to customize their Merkava MK.2D to represent various units and time periods, adding a personal touch to the finished model.

  2. Anti-Slip Texture: The inclusion of an anti-slip texture on various parts of the tank is a fantastic detail. It not only adds realism to the model but also makes it easier to weather and weathering effects, enhancing the overall appearance of the tank.

  3. Photo-Etched Parts: The kit comes with photo-etched parts, which are always a welcome addition for adding fine details and realism to the model. These parts help capture the intricate features of the Merkava MK.2D accurately.

  4. Workable Tracks: Assembling tank tracks can often be a challenging and time-consuming task. However, this kit offers workable tracks, making the assembly process smoother and more enjoyable. The result is a tank with realistic, movable tracks that add to the authenticity of the final model.

Overall, the Border Model 1/35 IDF Merkava MK.2D Full Interior Tank Kit is a fantastic choice for modelers who appreciate attention to detail and want to create a highly realistic representation of this iconic Israeli tank. Whether you're a seasoned modeler or a beginner looking for a rewarding challenge, this kit delivers on both quality and features, making it a worthwhile addition to your collection.
