מסמך מעניין של המרכז ללימודים פלסטיניים בקשר לאמל"ח צה"ל בעופרת יצוקה
http://www.palestine-studies.org/fi...f/jps/10341.pdf
המחקר מופיע כרפרנס 141 בוויקיפדיה האנגלית בערך Gaza War העוסק במבצע עופרת יצוקה:
Esposito, Michele K. (Spring 2000). "Isreali Arsenal Deployed Against Gaza During Operation Cast Lead". Journal of Palestine Studies (Institute for Palestine Studies) XXXVIII (3): 175–191. ISSN 1533-8614. http://www.palestine-studies.org/files/pdf/jps/10341.pdf. Retrieved March 6, 2010.
המחקר הוא ניתוח צבאי של אמצעי הלחימה שיש בצה"ל והשימוש בהם במבצע עופרת יצוקה.
עברתי על חלקו ויש בו לא מעט טעויות ושגיאות, למשל: הכנסת ה"שולף" (תומ"ת מרכבה 155 מ"מ) למערך הסדיר, טענות שהטנקי המרכבה יורים RPG וטילי נ"ט כגון ה-TOW והספייק ועוד. גם בחלק על ה-D9 יש טעויות קטנות (לא בטוח ש-Caterpillar מתערבת בתכנון והרכבת השריון הישראלי ל-D9, וכן תרגום שגוי של "רעם השחר" ל-Black Thunder) אך יחסית קטנות לשאר החלקים כי לשם שינוי נראה שהם קראו את הערכים על הדחפור בוויקיפדיה, הכירו בפעילות ההגנתית שלו ולא גינו אותו על הרס בתים ומנהרות, אלא רשמו שעיקר תפקידו פתיחת צירים וניקוי מטענים. מה שכן, הם טעו בחלק על ה-לביא"ה, שופל ממוגן עם עמדת מקלע, הוא נועד ליו"ש ולא לעזה רוויית הנ"ט ובגלל גודלו לא היה מתאים לסמטאות הצרות כפי שהם משערים.
להלן מספר פסקאות מעניינות:

Merkava Tanks
The IDF deployed Merkava II, III, and IV main battle tanks in Gaza during OCL. The versions vary slightly in design, size, and armaments but generally are armed with 105 mm or 120 mm laser-guided antitank missiles, multiple 7.62 mm or 12.7 mm heavy machine guns, 60 mm mortars, and smoke grenades. The main tank guns are capable of firing high-explosive antitank (HEAT) rounds and sabot rounds (which disperse armorpiercing flechettes; see “Special Weapons and Weapon Systems” below). Newer and upgraded models have advanced firing control systems that allow gunners to keep a lock on moving targets while on the move and are capable of receiving real-time encrypted intelligence data from the IDF’s drones. Israeli tanks typically are armed with a variety of grenades, missiles, and heavy machine guns, and they primarily fire guided TOW(see “Planes and Helicopters” above) and Spike missiles (see “Special Weapons and Weapon Systems” below). The soldiers accompanying the tanks are equipped with antitank rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs) such as the RPG-7, the M72 LAW, and B300 Shoulder-Launched Multipurpose Assault Weapon,which can target vehicles or buildings. Israel’s battle tanks are heavily armored and generally impervious to anything less than an antitank guided missile, of which the Palestinian factions are thought to hold very few (see “Palestinian Weapons Deployed against Israel” in this special documents section). Human Rights Watch (HRW) military analysts say Israel’s precision-guided tank shells are so accurate that they can be fired into a window from a distance of a mile (1.5 km). Given the numerous reports during OCL of tank shells being fired directly into Palestinian homes, Amnesty International and HRW suspect that IDF soldiers routinely targeted any home or building where signs of movement were detected by their tank’s vision system. Such a blanket open fire policy could be illegal under international law

Caterpillar Armored D9 Bulldozers
The IDF reportedly deployed some 100 armored CAT D9 bulldozers duringOCL. This variety (theD9L,D9N, and D9R) has been specifically modified by the U.S. manufacturer and Israeli Aerospace Industries (IAI) to meet Israel’s needs. Modifications typically involve adding armor and bulletproofing windows to protect operators against IEDs, RPGs, and heavy machine gun and sniper fire, though crew-operated machine guns, smoke projectors, and grenade launchers have been added to some units. Otherwise, models generally vary in size, horsepower, and pull capacity. In addition to building barriers and fortifications, the IDF has used the D9 for demolition; opening routes to other armored fighting vehicles and infantry, including within urban areas; and clearing landmines, IEDs, booby traps, and other explosives. The IDF claims to have used the D9s during OCL primarily to ensure that paths were cleared of IEDs and to demolish tunnels. The IDF also confirmed that it used an unmanned, remote-controlled version of the D9 (called Black Thunder) to clear roads of IEDs during OCL; at least 1 of these was heavily damaged.

Lioness Armored Bulldozers
In January 2008, the IDF unveiled a tiny armored bulldozer specifically designed to maneuver in narrow alleyways during urban combat operations. The driver sits in a 360-degree firing post used for “staving off attacks and destroying targets.” The Lioness serves the same purpose as the D9 but in close quarters, particularly to clear routes of obstacles for advancing infantry. Since Israel did not progress to stage 3 of OCL, which would have involved deep incursions into Palestinian built-up areas, it is unclear whether Lionesses were among the 100 armored bulldozers used during OCL.

Anti-Personnel/Anti-Materiel Tank Rounds (APAM)
A primary reason Israel Military Industries (IMI) developed the anti-personnel/antimaterielAPAM) laser-guided tank round was to increase the tank corps’ ability to support the infantry by clearing pathways and creating passageways for soldiers in urban combat, particularly by blasting openings in walls of up to 20-inch double-reinforced concrete.When used in open areas, APAM essentially serves as an antipersonnel cluster bomb: 6 submunitions explode in succession above the target, “producing a very wide and long lethal-fragmentation kill zone” roughly 55 yards by 20 yards, according to IMI, “leaving enemy infantry forces with no place to hide even if they are behind ground slopes, in trenches, and other concealed areas.” APAM has been in Israel’s arsenal since 2003, and HRW believes it was used during OCL, but use has not been confirmed
