When I see all the ERA on your M60, it’s obvious that the US wanted a new tank design (the Abrams). What a tribute to you work that you so effectively replicate the historical look of strengths and weaknesses.

John, your first post reads "My tongue M60W (Magach 6)." Something makes me think that a "spell checker" helped you because it didn't approve of "Tongde."

Sometimes spell checkers make the most enjoyable mistakes.
Your M60W appears to be in Isreali green; whereas, I also see that there is an Isreali gray. Am I seeing your M60 correctly? (I am a bit color blind.) I know I recently saw somewhere (
where, poor memory,
where?) that there are or have been several Israeli colors. I did not see any dates associated with the use of the various colors.

Yeah I just noticed and fixed it
The colours used is vallejo air IDF Sinai Grey 82 and mixed some with white. The ammo boxes and jerry cans are AK interactive IDF modern green. But I have found in some lighting the couplour does change between grey, mocca brown and grey brown. Plus the dirt on it can change the colour.
