Description
2208 M51 "Degem Alef"
In the 1960s, the Israeli Defense Forces equipped their M4A1 Sherman tanks with the powerful French 105mm CN-105-F1 cannon and designated them the M51.
A muzzle brake was installed to minimize the increased recoil, and a large counterweight was attached to the rear of the turret to compensate for the weight of the long barrel.
The 460 hp diesel engine and the combination of Horizontal Volute Spring Suspension (HVSS) and wider T80 tracks gave the M51 greater mobility.
In the 1967 Six-Day War, the M51s were used against newer T-54/55 tanks and JS-3 tanks of the Egyptian, Iraqi, and Syrian armies, proving their superiority
