1/35 IDF Infantry Set

Modern Israeli Defense Forces Israel Defense Forces, abbreviated as IDF) was established in 1948. Currently, they are considered one of the most efficient armed forces in the world, and they gained their reputation during the Suez Crisis (1956), the Six-Day War (1967) or in the last stages of the Yom Kippur War (1973). Their very important element is, of course, the Israeli Land Forces, which have had their own command since 1983. It is worth noting that, unlike in Poland, Israel is subject to conscription - both women and men - to the army, and the basic military service lasts 3 years (for men) and 2 years (for women). It is worth adding that in its course candidates for special units are selected. In terms of numbers, the most important element of the Israeli Army is, of course, the infantry, which is formed into divisions. This, in turn, is divided into 2-3 brigades, consisting of 2,000 to 5,000 people. Each brigade, in turn, is divided into 2 to 5 battalions. Since 2002, a single battalion consists mainly of two infantry companies and a platoon of support weapons. The primary small arms of the Israeli infantry are assault rifles from the M16 family, as well as the M4 and CAR-15. The Tavor rifle of Israeli production is also in service. The basic manual machine guns are the Negev and the FN MAG. It is worth noting that the IDF motorized and mechanized infantry units use very well-armored Achzarit, Namer and Nagmachon tracked transporters.
