Chaps,

Have the Israeli's ever had an aircraft named "The Hammer"?

Or a tank? AFV?? :tank:

I think Kurnass means Sledgehammer. :huh:
but I may well be wrong.

I've seen Kurnass referred to as either Sledge Hammer or Heavy Hammer.

BTW, here's what we're referring to for those unaware:

I bought the book about the F-4 in IDF service at Telford, and Kurnass does indeed mean some derivative of 'Hammer'. Of course they even LOOK like it too! :)
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

It would depend on what kind of vehicle we're talking about :-)
