For years, modelers and armor enthusiasts have been deprived of real information and photos of Israeli weaponry because of the security restrictions and censorship policies of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). Now, as a result of a more open environment, a treasure-trove of photos and information is available, some brand new, and some collected over a period of more than 30 years. Desert Eagle Publishing has taken advantage of this new environment to begin an amazing collaboration of expertise, knowledge and talent. Both author & editor are avid and experienced modelers. They decided to put together this book series for - and by - scale modelers. The result is a series that will feature a variety of IDF armored vehicles that will appeal to armor enthusiasts and scale modelers alike.
