Personally, I want nothing to do with the period. But-
The vehicles you are looking for are egyptian conversions of T34/85's, with the rear of the turret opened up and extended..
There were two types I know of- T-34/100 was a tank destroyer, while T34/122 mounted a field gun. They are also known as just T-100 and T-122.
Not too hard to find info on the web from there...

No Love for the Arab-Israeli Wars
Hi Fireball
I feel your pain. I would love to see more models for the Arab-Israeli Wars. I am primarily interested in the 67 and 73 Wars so I tend to want things from those periods.
Here is my list of things I would like GHQ to produce.
1. Israeli infantry for 67 and 73. Also include the heavy weapons as well.
2. "Arab" infantry for 67 and 73. Need Sagger teams and recoiless rifle teams included in the heavy weapons.
3. Israeli recon jeeps. I forget the actual designation but M37 or something like it. These were a post WWII version of the jeep and before the M151.
4. Su-7. This would have been my preferred aircraft over the IL-28.
5. A-4 Skyhawk.
There are several other items that might be nice but these are certainly needed.
I am glad that GHQ has produced the Israeli M3 halftrack, M3 halftrack with 90mm, and the M-3 Magach,
Hopefully GHQ will consider some more items for this time frame and not just ultra modern stuff although I realize that is hot right now.
