What you would be doing

This course certifies you on three powerful IDF vehicles: Puma (the combat engineering breaching vehicle), Nagmachon (a belly-protected APC) and Achzarit. You learn to work with their electrical systems, find faults and restore the vehicles to full readiness — through theory and a hands-on workshop where you strip down assemblies and come out a certified vehicle electrician. From there, a whole world opens up: Golani, Givati, combat engineering, regional brigades and the national Tana formation. Fighters can't move without Tana personnel, and this role puts you at the core of the battlefield.
