One's that they captured from from the Israelis, or one's we've sold them?

I don't know, they are in a good shape if they are battlefield wrecks.

Lesley:

I’m pretty certain that those are captured Israeli ShotKal Centurions. Notice the Israeli-style searchlight stowage on the rear of the turret. One of them is missing its second stowage box on the turret side.

By the way, that photo is flipped horizontally — notice where the steering wheel of the transporter is, and the stowage box arrangement on the turret sides of the ShotKals. The two stowage boxes that we can see should be on the left turret side (the right side has only a single, long stowage box).

They were captured from the IDF in the `73 war. They are Shot Kals and even still have the IDF markings. This is how it should look.
