I have to agree with Rod, I've also been to the Israeli Armoured Corps Museum at Latrun and didn't see any T16's. The one in your post, I'm sure, is a No. 3 Mk II, if memory serves me correctly.

Well, all I can say is this picture was recently (12 Feb. 2004) added to the Tankmaster site and that it does show a T16, doesn't it? I realise that it doesn't automatically mean it was actually used by the IDF, as the museum is trading AFVs with other countries (like the Sheridan).
