Found these in a book about Merkavas:
Der Kampfpanger der Israelischen Armee.Author: Gelbart M.
Merkava. The Merkava Project A History of Israel’s Main Battle Tank - Gelbart M. - 2005
Thats some pure ludicrousy, unless those are armor value gainst HEAT rounds. Unless physics dosen’t exist that ufp is not protecting it from ~800mm of KN penetration

This is great. What page is it?
125, 126

There’s also much stuff on the Merkava 3.

yet it performs way worse than chobham in-game, such a magical model.
my last hopes that gaijin will fix merkava armor when they add ranks 1-3. that way you cant just have the best tank in the game off the rip
fingers crossed
