Short info about prototype:

The Merkava Mark 3 was introduced in December 1989 and was in production until 2003. As of 2016, the Merkava III was the most numerous tank in frontline IDF service. Compared to the Merkava II, it has upgrades to the drivetrain, powertrain, armament, and electronic systems. The most prominent addition was the incorporation of the locally developed IMI 120 mm gun. This gun and a larger 1,200 horsepower (890 kW) diesel engine raised the total weight of the tank to 65 tonnes (143000 lb), but the larger engine raised the maximum cruising speed to 60 km/h (37 mph).

The turret was re-engineered for movement independent of the tank chassis, allowing it to track a target regardless of the tank’s movement. Many other changes were made, including:

• External two-way telephone for secure communications between the tank crew and dismounted infantry.
• Upgraded ammunition storage containers to minimize ammunition cook-off.
• Addition of laser designators.
• Incorporation of the Kasag modular armor system, designed for rapid replacement and repair in the battlefield and for quick upgrading as new designs and sophisticated materials become available.

BAZ System
The 1995 Mark 3 BAZ had several updates and added systems including:

• NBC protection systems.
• Locally developed central air-conditioning system.
• Added improvements in ballistic protection.
• The Mark 3D has removable modular composite armor on the chassis and turret.
