Israeli M113 Platoon

Israeli M113 Platoon

The Israelis captured a number of M113 armoured personnel carriers from theJordanians in 1967, and after some modifications to suit their needs internallyand externially, they eventually went about purchasing more from the US. TheM113 underwent a series of standardised modifications to become the Israeli M113Zelda APC.
Mine racks were added to each side of the M113 as well as a rail for mountingknapsacks, camouflage nets, stretchers and tactical callsigns. Often the splashboard on the front of the hull was removed due to the lack of water crossingsthat the IDF were required to conduct.
