Historical Information

During the Yom Kippur War (6–25 October 1973), the Egyptian army launched a surprise attack on Israeli positions in the Sinai. Soviet tanks played a leading role: T-55A and T-62, dozens of which were used by armored units to cross the Suez Canal and combat Israeli vehicles in the Sinai Desert. Accurate reproduction of details and authentic vehicle markings have a huge impact on historical accuracy and the realism of dioramas and models from this period.
