IDF Pereh

Hi all,

First post here.

Work in progress shots of my attempt at an IDF Pereh.

Tamiya M48a2 (modified) for the hull.

Scratch built turret.

Parts from Academy Magach 7c and the leftovers box.

I’ll update with more pics as i go :slight_smile:

I remember starting a thread on the Pereh Missile carrier.

Modeling the IDF M48 “Pereh” Missile Carrier - Armor/AFV / Modern - KitMaker Network

I am happy that someone it’s putting one together. I will follow this one. :kissing_face_with_closed_eyes: :+1:

The hatches look way too small, the grenade launchers are poorly designed, and the M60 storage boxes on the hull sides are missing together with other small details. For the price, it should be better :slight_smile:

The front is wrong too, the angel to the left is wrong, and the left side Blazer Packets… I bought the data and I am damed to ever buy from this guy (themic) again The Centurion LPT from him, was worse…

I don’t think that’s the Themic one.

I have that and I agree it’s poor.

Wow, this is a cheap kit, too bad the manufacturer sells it directly for 25USD

Sorry it was in response of SableLiger

The offering from China is not like the real thing, so go on with your scratch Conversion

I made this reply on another Pereh question.: I have been building this Pereh in 2025

I used the Dragon 3578 Magach 3 with ERA, for the front of hull ERA.
Dragon 3544 M48A3 Mod B, for the hull and fenders, they are M48A5 type.
Academy 13297 Magach 7C, for the fender ERA, and the front side armor. And drive sprockets.
CULT PU Pereh 3D turret, and side skirts design by THEMIC. Printed by a friend.
a 105mm M68 metal barrel.
Fridul Merkava Mk 2 tracks.

I had no problems with building the tank itself, The turret had some issues, The 2 holes for the
crew were very small, and the hatches were also to small, i used 2 Polish 20 Zloty for the
hatches. I thought the 3D barrel were to thin, and used a metal one. Decals are from spare
decal box, I know the license plate are wrong maybe it will be changed later .
