Palestinian Hamas Spreads Tactical Guide to Destroy Israeli Merkava Tanks, Using Russian and Chinese Weapons
VIVA Military: Israeli military Merkava tank destroyed by Palestinian Hamas forces
VIVA – A number of leaflets containing tactical guidance on destroying Israeli tanks have been widely circulated to the public. This leaflet was created by the command of the Palestinian Hamas forces, to counter attacks by Israeli military units.
Tactical guidance leaflets were deliberately distributed by Palestinian Hamas forces so that anyone who read them would be able to bulldoze Israeli military Merkava tanks.
As is known, dozens of Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Merkava tanks were destroyed and some were captured by the Palestinian Hamas group in an attack launched on October 7, 2023.
In the leaflet, it appears that the weapons used by Palestinian Hamas forces are the Russian-made RPG-7 rocket launcher, the Iranian-made PG-7T and the Chinese-made Type 69 RPG.

With these weapons, Hamas members were directed to target a number of parts believed to be the weak points of Israeli tanks.
"Aim at the rear hatch and ammunition storage areas, the space between the turret and the tank hull, the belly of the tank, or weak points in the armor on the sides of the hull near the front," reads a Hamas tactical manual.
"Use rockets and improvised explosive devices on the roadside," continued the editorial guide as reported by VIVA Military from Forbes.
A leaflet containing a tactical guide to destroying tanks was uploaded by the Israeli military, after being taken from a Palestinian Hamas member who was killed in battle.

Even more surprising, Hamas also has an effective way to destroy the Trophy's protective system. This system is a new feature on the Merkava Mark IV tank.
The Trophy system is a combination of a small radar and a rapid-fire, rapid-fire grenade launcher that automatically detects incoming missiles and rockets to intercept them.

Dengan senjata itu, para anggota Hamas diarahkan untuk membidik sejumlah bagian yang diyakini sebagai titik lemah tank Israel.
"Bidik palka belakang dan tempat penyimpanan amunisi, ruang antara turret dan lambung tank, bagian perut tank, atau titik lemah pada lapis baja di sisi lambung dekat bagian depan," bunyi panduan taktis buatan Hamas.
"Gunakan roket dan alat peledak rakitan di pinggir jalan," lanjut redaksional panduan tersebut dilansir VIVA Militer dari Forbes.
Selebaran berisi panduan taktis penghancuran tank diunggah militer Israel, setelah diambil dari seorang anggota Hamas Palestina yang tewas dalam pertempuran.

Yang lebih mengejutkan, Hamas juga memiliki cara efektif untuk menghancurkan sistem pelindung Trophy. Sistem ini adalah fitur baru pada tank Merkava Mark IV.
Sistem Trophy adalah kombinasi radar kecil dan peluncur granat, yang ditembakkan dengan cepat yang secara otomatis mendeteksi rudal dan roket yang masuk untuk mencegatnya.
