 Subject:  info on tiran tanksList thread.  
  
 Date:  Aug 1, 2001

The tank was a Tiran 5 (t55 modified by the Israeli) Typical changes to the
tank that the Israeli made, like large storage bins on the turret side where
removed for the movie, so it resembled more the original t55.
You might want to check these sides out to better understand what the
Israeli did to the basic t54/t55/t62

some genaral info + pictures of the tiran 4/5
