Flat Pack, I'll drop Pendraken a line but not too hopeful as they have many other "irons in the fire" plus they would also need to produce infantry for 1982 as they look quite different from Yom Kippur and in 10mm ( unlike 6mm) you can tell them apart.

Hope you don’t mind, but I’ve got to pick up a couple of items from Pendraken this week, as I’m holidaying quite close to them.
I dropped Leon at Pendraken an order and asked the question about the two tanks that you were asking about. Here is his answer,
“ we don’t have any plans for those two vehicles at the moment, but the M60 could be an easy addition in the future. The Merkava would be a long way off though unfortunately as we’ve still got a lot of US/Brit/Soviet kit to do before we hit that next generation of MBTs in the 80’s, things like the Merkava, Abrams, Leopard, etc”
All I would say, is keep asking about the M60 blazer and it might happen ?

Flat Pack, thanks for asking the question. Not surprised by his answer as I guess post Yom-Kippur Arab-Israeli probably of minor interest. I was more surprised by Red3's reply as he is more of a moderns specialist.

If the size/scale isn't quite right he will adjust.
He was very helpful with my modern French.

Is their Merkava no use?
