Academy 1/35 Merkava Mk. IV LIC – Israeli Main Battle Tank

Build the distinctive Israeli Merkava Mk. IV LIC (Low Intensity Conflict) in 1/35 scale with Academy's detailed kit. Designed for modern urban and low-intensity combat environments, the LIC configuration adds specialized armor and defensive features that make this Merkava particularly interesting for modern armor modelers.

Academy has packed this kit with excellent exterior detail, including applique armor, molded anti-slip surfaces, detailed suspension and armor components, individually assembled plastic tracks, and a highly detailed turret. A selection of photo-etched parts adds additional scale detail to areas such as mesh screens, protective fittings, and other LIC-specific equipment.

The kit also includes Israeli tank crew and infantry figures, allowing you to add additional life and scale to your finished model. Painting instructions and decals are included to complete an Israeli Defense Forces vehicle.
