What Makes Merkava a Great Tank For Ukraine

Merkava isn't just a tank; it's a symbol of Israel's dedication to cutting-edge military innovation. Conceived specifically for Israel's unique operational terrain and threats, the Merkava has evolved into a tour de force on the battlefield. At its core is an uncompromising focus on crew safety. The engine, positioned at the front, acts as a shield, minimizing the risk to personnel inside from frontal assaults.
But defense is just one facet of the Merkava. Equipped with a formidable main gun and precision secondary weapons, this tank can dominate in any armored combat scenario. Its sophisticated fire control system ensures unparalleled accuracy, permitting effective engagement even when in motion.
What further distinguishes the Merkava is its adaptability. The rear compartment, initially conceptualized for infantry support, can be repurposed. Whether transporting troops, additional gear, or evacuating injured soldiers, this space underscores the tank's multifunctional design.
As they are being sold to Europe, those closely observing the war in Ukraine are keen to see if these tanks will make an appearance.

But as we have seen lately it dont matter what tank you have if you dont use it right. The Israeli will probably see sort of the same as the Russians get. Though if it work, then a chain relay of iron beam along the border will make sure they dont fly simple drones with a grenade over the border, or guys in a hangglider. I also think they are portable to a large degree, so probably something more armies around the world would want to look into. I am sure Russian front line soldiers would love such a " bug" zapper CUZ drones are driving them insane. Active defence on tanks which the Israelis are also into, that's very interesting, and would probably soon be a must have on tanks. CUZ there are no shortage on tank killers out there.

    Merkava is a damn good tank, but probably not what Ukraine needs right now. Merkava is designed as a defensive tank and is slow compared to stuff like the M1 and the Leopard 2. Having said that, they're still solid tanks and I'm sure that Ukraine could find some way to use them even if they probably aren't that useful for the breakthrough that will hopefully happen soon.

Merkava hull is used for the Namer which is an APC with a 50cal RCWS and recently the Namer IFV with a remote controlled turret with 30mm autocannon and 2 Spike ATGMs. There's also the Namera, which is the engineering version of the Namer, and there are various subtypes of the Namera, like one with special optics and sensors against mines, one with towed vertically launched missiles canister against mines, another version with a crane etc. All of those are equipped with Trophy of course.

    The Merkeva is an unbelievably good tank, and the most defended MBT ever developed, but it isn't actually ideal for Ukraine. It's heavy (for perspective, 50% heavier than a T-72) and so large swathes of the front will be impassable (it was designed for desert combat, not mud). Similarly, its high-tech systems and large size burn fuel like crazy, and so Ukraine's supply lines might have issues with that. Additionally, the Merkava has several pieces of tech that cannot fall into Russian hands--namely, its Trophy APS has a 95% effectiveness on taking out ATGMs, up to the heavy Kornet. It's been installed on Abrams and Leopards, and nobody wants Russia to capture a sample of that tech. What I would bet is that Cyprus, or a similar small nation that wants highly defended tanks to prevent tanker losses, is buying up Merkava to replace their existing tanks, and then might send the old ones to Ukraine.

    If Cyprus is indeed getting Merks Mk. 3, it will be free to sell its brigade-worth of Russian T-80s, and these Ukraine could field immediately without conversion training.

    No, our Abrams is designed to work well in a much wider range of environments and be more balanced. The Merkeva is perfectly adapted to defensive desert warfare, where it is the scariest threat anybody can face. Put it in Eastern European mud, and it's going to have an issue. What the US and Germany have been doing however is taking individuals systems from the Merkeva and incorporating them into their tanks--for example, the US and Germany both use the Trophy APS system designed for the Merkava, while Germany has also adopted the Lahat anti-armor (tank or helicopter) missiles that are shot from the main turret.

    @@burlbird9786 yeah I do believe that tanks are obselete in urban warfare situations. We have seen in Russo ukrainian wars how Ukrainians launched rpg or NLAWs on the tank top from buildings. In ww1 the philosophy behind tanks was to clear the trenches. In ww2 it remained same but an additional doctrine was added and tanks were meant to support infantry movements and fight in plain terrains mostly where it was highly likely that it will be shot from front so that's why a strong front armour was added too. Another thing is there is no specific definition for tanks. Basically it's a very high velocity gun mounted on tracks and possess good armour (which has failed mostly due to developments in anti tank rounds). Tanks are not economical as well. No matter how much advanced armour in theory are being developed for tanks. Just one good anti tank round ( arguably javellins) will make whole production of tanks obselete in every way. I believe tanks will be old tech soon and won't be a part of modern warfare doctrine anymore.

    Israel might be willing to sell Merkavas. That doesn’t mean it’s willing to give to Ukraine for free. Any nation that is able to buy Merkavas won’t be able to transfer them to Ukraine. That said, Israeli military weapons won’t see combat in Ukraine. Unless those weapons were co-developed by other nations. Example, Matador anti-armor missile system was co-developed with Germany.
