AFV Club AF35277 1/35 IDF Sho't Kal Dalet with Battering Ram

Model Tank Kit

The AFV Club AF35277 1/35 IDF Shot Kal Dalet with Battering Ram Model Tank Kit depicts a specialized Israeli Defense Forces variant of the heavily modified Centurion-based Shot Kal main battle tank, fitted with a distinctive battering ram attachment for combat engineering and obstacle-clearing operations. This unique configuration showcases the IDFs tradition of adapting proven armored vehicles with mission-specific equipment to meet the demands of modern battlefield environments.

The Shot Kal represented Israels extensive modernization of the British Centurion tank, incorporating improved engines, upgraded armor, modern fire control systems, and other enhancements that transformed the aging design into a highly effective combat vehicle. The Dalet variant introduced further improvements and was used by the IDF during the later Cold War period, including operations requiring specialized armored capabilities.
