Ack!
So now we're the IDF foot-fetish thread?
Cool pictures, Sirpad! BTW, are they going to switch to the Tavors? Or not enough place for the rails on them?
Combat officers from selected elite units of the IDF practice guerilla warfare techniques in Northern Israel.
Kind of looks like they put the dog as the ma'azin (listner)

Interesting gear on the S13 guys - is that a "long" Trijicon?
Also, that old Elbit optic? Last time i saw one was on a Nashak's weapon in my Gdud.
We still had elbits until the tavorim came in and I had one for a good chunk of my service. I always heard shayetet liked to use them. Those sights can take a beating! I used one because they are way better than mepros and there weren't enough MARS to go around, but obviously those guys have access to pretty much any sight, so they must still be good for something.
In the picture where the tanker is lying down in front of the Mk. 4, why is the barrell so short? Surely, that is not a standard L44 18 foot barrel... or am I mistaken?
Or is it that this tank is intended for fighting in urban areas, and so the barrel is shortened..?
And a best wishes for a happy passover from the Combat Engineer Corps Special Forces:
Chag Sameach.
חג שמח
Enjoy and stay safe.
