Wat een goed idee Droop hadden de Israeli's er geen diesel motor in i.p.v. benzine? Staat mij zo bij. Hoe was dat verhaal alweer van 2 Sho't 's die een 50 tal T62 tanks tegenhielden en deels vernielden, ik meen 30 stuks. Enfin misschien weet jij het. Groeten, Bram Was in ieder geval opmerkelijk de T62 is ook geen watje

ah wiki in engels: "Sho't Kal Alef/Bet/Gimel/Dalet: modernised Centurion tanks with a new powerpack (the Continental AVDS-1790-2A diesel engine and the Allison CD850-6 transmission).
The addition "Kal" refers to the abbreviation of the engine manufacturer "Continental", originally notated in Hebrew as שוטקל, which should read "Cal". But since Cal also means "lightweight" and the ק is closer to K than C, the name Sho't Kal struck on outside the Hebrew speaking world.
Entered service in 1970; by 1974 all Israeli Centurions were upgraded to Sho't Kal. Subvariants indicate upgrades received by Sho't Kal tanks during their operational life, including a new turret rotating mechanism, a new gun stabilizer, a new fire-control system and preparations for the installation of the Blazer Reactive armour."
oh dat wapenfeit van de 2 Sho't tanks is nog beter dan ik dacht: "During the invasion of the Syrian army into the Golan Heights during the Yom Kippur war, two damaged Centurion/Sho’t tanks engaged approximately 150 Syrian T-55/T-62 tanks. In the course of the following 30 hour tank battle, the two tanks knocked out over 60 tanks.[2] The destruction of this entire armored division forced the Syrian army to halt their advance. See Zvika Greengold." Zo zie je maar weer
