After the Third Middle East War in 1967, the Israeli army named the T-55 tank captured from the Arab army Tyran 5 and used it as a valuable force for the country. Many vehicles replaced the main gun with the original 100mm gun to the western standard 105mm gun, and added M2 heavy machine guns and commander and loader machine guns on the main gun shield. It is characterised by a miscellaneous box added to the right side of the turret. In the Fourth Middle East War in October 1973, he fought as a part of the tank unit. After that, although he retired from the front line in the early 1980s, he was used for training and rear missions, and was also dispatched to the Lebanese conflict.
