Merkava.

Marek-Tucan,

While the Israelis use this tactic in the 1982 conflict it was not as wide spread as in the 2006 conflict.

As far as the game is concerned the longest scenario is 90 turns long. If the time elapsed per turn is 2 to 5 minutes then we are only talking about 3 to a max of a little over 7 hrs of real time. Putting troops in the back of a Merkava for this amount of time is not outside the scope of human endurance.

The videos show them practicing the deployment of infantry from the rear of this tank. Why practice something if its not intended to be used in battle?

EDIT: Achzarit has a 3 man crew and carries 7 infantry.
