Hi guys,

Last week I modified my Armortek Centurion into an IDF Sho't Kal (1967: 6 days war, Golan Heights).

I hope you all like it.

I placed some chaines on the rear of my Sho't Kal turret. The chaines detonate the rockets fired from RPGs before they impact the turret, disrupting the HEAT mechanism.

The commander of my IDF Sho't kal reads the Talmud (1/6 scale).

With this arrangement I wanted to accentuate the difference between the murderous .50 cal on top of the centurion's turret and the confession of the Jewish faith on the battlefield during the six-day war (Golan Heights).
