M3 90mm DEFA
(AIS122)
includes one M3 90mm DEFA half-track with crew & one Plastic half-track components sprue.

Each infantry battalion in the Israeli Defence Force (or IDF) had an anti-tank platoon, and each brigade an anti-tank company, equipped with either half-tracked anti-tank guns or recoilless anti-tank guns mounted on jeeps. These protected the infantry from enemy tanks, freeing the Israeli tanks to continue the offensive while the infantry mopped up.
Such an example of these types of vehicles was the M3 90mm DEFA half-track. Mounting the French-made CN-90-F1 gun in the fighting compartment of the M3 half-track; the CN-90-F1 fired a fin-stabilised HEAT (or High Explosive; Anti-tank) projectile capable of penetrating nearly any tank on the battlefield.

Not only was it an excellent deterrent against tanks but it also had the mobility and speed to keep pace with the advancing mechanised infantry.

Protected Ammo
Many tanks are destroyed not by the enemy shell but by their own ammunition being hit by white-hot fragments of armour and exploding. The chances of this were minimised by providing a safe place for stowing ammunition within the vehicle such as an armoured compartment or inside a water-filled jacket.
If forced to bail out, crews of tanks with protected ammunition are far more confident when it comes to remounting their vehicle quickly.
Tanks with Protected Ammo re-roll all failed Motivation Tests to Remount Bailed Out vehicles in the Starting Step (see page 102 of the main rulebook).

Hull-mounted Guns
Some tanks mount weapons in the front of the hull instead of in a turret to save weight or to make them easier to produce.
A hull-mounted weapon mounted in the front of a vehicle has a 180-degree Field of Fire covering everything in front of a line drawn across the front of the vehicle. If the weapon is mounted at the rear of the vehicle, the Field of Fire covers everything to the rear of a line drawn across the rear of the vehicle.
