I like the idea that the Merkava Mk.3 can be used as a APC if needs be. |
This is assuming the other tanks don't get their shots off first. Even the M1A2SEP has a good 50% (very loose estimate) chance of being penetrated by any of those other tanks.
I wouldn't use "blow it all to hell" either. The Mk 4 would be penetrated, but it definitely wouldn't explode. The crew would have a good chance of survival.
