On November 3rd, 1918, Austria-Hungary capitulated in World War I, its territorial concessions allowing Italy to complete its reunification that began way back in the middle of the XIX century. Thus November 4th, the day that the armistice went into effect, is celebrated as National Unity and Armed Forces Day. Italians were celebrating it before Mussolini’s rise to power, during his premiership and after where it’s the only holiday to have remained in effect for the past century.

Until 20:00 GMT on the 14th of November - get a gift decal “Approved by Wiki: M-51 (W)” with the purchase of M-51 (W) Pack.

Call it simply “Super Sherman”! Israel’s design prowess also affected the legendary American M4 Sherman by turning the compact medium tank into a platform for the monster 105mm cannon from the French AMX-30.

All other minor modifications pale into insignificance against this gun. Obviously the tactics in the M-51 (W) should be appropriate - you are an excellent covering fighter who is guaranteed to take out several enemy tanks in a battle.

For those who are researching Israeli vehicles, love Shermans in all their manifestations or just like vehicles of unusual shapes and sizes. About the rest we are telling you in the review!


“Approved by Wiki: M-51 (W)” — unique decal for each new vehicle.
