This is definitely a M60 Magach (7C) with the pointed/tapered turret front. It
was improved from their early M60 series with round turret. The later M60A1/A3
series are one which are classified as 7D/8 with a WW2 British crusader
look-alike shape.
Notice the front segment of the thermal sleeve of the main gun which are
clamped at the top instead of by the side?
Hope this helped?
