Magach is the Israeli designation of the Patton tanks — M48 and M60, delivered from the United States and Germany in the 60-ies and 70-ies. Magach 1, 2, 3 and 5 are based on M48; Magach 6 and 7 are based on M60.Magach 6B is, in fact, M60A1E2 tank. As with all other imported and captured equipment, the Israelis made over this tank their quite significant improvements. Despite the solid age of the M60 tank, upgrades for it do not stop, and allow you to maintain outdated equipment at a fairly modern level. In the name of Magach 6B Gal Batash prefix Gal stands for the name of the Israeli fire control system, and Batash translates as “overall security” (comprehensive protection or General security?). Gal Batash has a more powerful engine, an additional 50-caliber machine gun in front of the tower, additional armor screens, and is armed with an English 105-mm L7 gun.
