What is that tank doing with the A100s? Providing protection?

Yes, from Gujranwala

Protecting artillery gun areas and fire support bases once they are inside captured enemy territory.

@Signalian , here's where the reservist tanks (upgraded T69s) can come into play, as I stated earlier, instead of using frontline eqpt.

I support your Idea ! While I demand more machine guns on Tanks and APC with gun shields.

Count the numbers of machine guns !
@Beny Karachun why Israeli Tanks have so many machine guns installed on Tanks, does it benefit to suppress enemy’s infantry more then a single one ? What’s the main reason ?

There's also a 60mm internal mortar.

Yes, it's very good for suppressing fire. The more machineguns the better lol, that's the conclusion our tankers had.

Also because the Merkava is more a highly armored IFV along with being a Tank so it usually does have more personnel going along with it - hence all the need for it being like a mini fortress.

Nah, it's capable of hosting some passengers but at the expense spare shells. Usually this doesn't happen.

But that capability does exist and hence the additional firepower. Also is the need to be able to switch to different fields of fire instead of rotating a swivel around.

Israel has the Namer APC for that role, which is based on the Merkava, except it's even more armored.

I thought the namer was based on the T-55.. or was the Achkarit(or something close)

Active protection or more MGs, what your take in preference ?

Why not both.

More Machine guns against Infantry and a combination of a passive/active protection made in Pakistan against enemy ATGM.

@iLION12345_1 why we can’t finde on any pictures the 7.62mm inside Pakistani made Tank series, it’s even not produced in Pakistan. Would you prefer a additional MG-3 on the turret of the AL-Zarrar Tank ?


I would also recommend smoke tubes,a additional MG-3 gun with gun shield on all M-113 series, do you agree ? Why most Pakistani M-113 don’t have smoke grenade launcher tubes ?
@Beny Karachun do you think it’s necessary to have gun shields for machine gun stations on the M133 APC, did it proved to be effective and sense wise, also I can count most of times 3x machine gun on Israeli APC series, what’s the purpose? ( I think I know it but I am asking for gathering public here).

@iLION12345_1 @PanzerKiel would recommend to make the mechanised Infantrymen more effective by giving the M-113 troops better fighting weapons, to transform it something like a storm infantrymen. The main focus lies on training and upgrading existing weapons.

1.MG-3 should get a double drum magazine and a modernization Kitt that allow existing MG3 inventory to be upgraded. It adds picatinny rails for optics and accessories, an adjustable stock, improved sling and a very nifty fore grip that doubles as a carry handle.
2.The G-3 men or/designated marksman rifle should also get a upgrade kit for his rifle.
3.The rest of the Trooper which carries the Type-56 rifle should get the option install a grenade launcher on their rifle.

Supplement to the RPG-7 or as a replacement the anti Tank tasked Trooper must get a modern and shoulder light ATGM such as the Alcotán-100.

As I said before the M-113 should be transformed into fighting machines which supports the storm infantrymen with two board machine guns.

How many MGs do you need
2,3,4 ?
Cost, reloading, turret aiming, targets etc all have to be consisted
