Description
First shown publicly in 1965, the M51 Isherman (a name used by the crews from a contraction of ‘Israeli Sherman’) was an even more radical adaptation of the venerable Sherman design. Based on the 76mm-armed M1 chassis, the M51 was armed with a modified French 105mm gun from the latest AMX-30 main battle tank. The gun itself had been shortened and a huge muzzle brake was added to handle its recoil. In the 1967 war, the Israelis used ‘French’ Shermans mounting the 75mm gun from the AMX and their own M51 ‘Isherman’ (short for ‘Israeli Sherman’) mounting a 105mm gun.
