They do have good locks, even the good old M113 APC have the ability to lock all the hatches, access lids to the cooling system, fuel tank, engine room from inside the crew compartmen.
Does the Merkava Mk4 have an external Fire Extinguisher system handle?
The MBTs, IFVs and APCs I have worked on, all the Fire Extinguisher system have been to the engine room, and the bottles stored in the crew compartment.
In my case there are only two vehicles that I have worked on, where you have external Fire Extinguisher system handle, and that is the M113, which I also have been a commander on, and the CV9030N IFV. But, the Fire Extinguisher still goes to the engine room, and does no harm to the crew.
I find this question very interesting.
But, I ran the test and these rock throwing dudes managed to knock out my tanks, but with a very good help from me.
And like Mobhack wrote:

"Rocks" are not rocks - they are a class 1 infantry weapon with range 1 (or 2?). The game has no "rock" or "spear" or "bow" weapon classes. So they ripped open a hatch and sprayed the insides of the tank crew compartment with a class 1 HE weapon.

I just have to visualize these individuals ripping up a hatch, these hatches usually is a though nut to crack, believe me, I have a couple of them on my conscience. And even with the right tool, time and a peaceful environment they are a hard nut to crack.
Anyway, I enjoy reading about all the “gung ho” ways to knock out a tank.
Thx all
