The Merkava Mk3 BAZ, one of the most powerful battle tanks of the IDF, was developed from the Merkava Mk3. It offers good mobility with a powerful 1200 hp engine installed at the front. The weapon system consists of a 120 mm smoothbore gun and three machine guns. Additionally, it is equipped with a new gunner's sight and an extra panoramic commander's sight. The heavily armored engine compartment enhances frontal protection. This tank can also be fitted with the Nochri Dalet mine-clearing system to clear mines on the battlefield.
