Pretty interesting conversion.
Isrealis mated up the turret of the AMX-13 (oscilating, high velocity 90mm gun with an auto-loader), to the proven, mechanically realible Sherman.
Unsure of the time-line, certainly after '56, but I'm sure a fair number were availible for the '67 'roadshow', probably when this one ended being aquired.
This is just one example of their genius for "making do with what you got" attitude that is still in practice today.

Cheers

Wayne
