 The '''{{Specs|name}}''' (רודן; lit. Tyrant) was a captured and slightly-modified Arabic T-54 in Israeli service. The IDF was well-known for receiving different types of tank both from military sales and capture of enemy vehicles; after Soviet Union supplied an abundance of T-54/55/62 series medium tanks to Arabic countries neighbouring Israel (i.e. Egypt, Syria, Lebanon) since the 1960s, Israel had the chance to capture hundreds of vehicles during the Six-Day War and Yom Kippur War, replenishing the heavy losses of the Israeli armoured corps, as well as using them to disguise as Arabic armoured corps to hit them unexpectedly. These captured Soviet-built tanks were named Tiran and the different numbers represented different types of tanks; in this case, Tiran 4 was the designation of modified T-54 with logistical modifications.
-Introduced in [[Update "Danger Zone"]], the Tiran 4 provides the same firepower and mobility of a T-54 while still suffering from the same cramped interior space, a downgraded anti-aircraft machine gun (from DShK to M1919A4), unprotected ammo racks, and slow turret traverse speed. It's a good brawler and frontline tank, with access to a good APHE shell that one shot most enemies if you are able to penetrate the enemy tank. It's slow profile and slopped armour make it very well protected against conventional projectiles.

-For players who have played T-54 series on different tech trees (Soviet, Chinese, Finnish), Tiran 4 is yet another T-54 Model 1951 but this time in the Israeli tech-tree as their captured tanks from Arabic countries. Aside from Chinese Type 59 which is in fact T-54A, the remaining two are identical to Tiran 4; thanks to its revolutionary design back in 1950s and devastating firepower if shots penetrated enemy armor, Tiran 4 can still serve as a spearhead of Israeli players alongside with its US-originated Magach (M48 Patton; M60 series).
+For players who have played the T-54 series in other trees (Soviet, Chinese, Finnish), the Tiran 4 is yet another T-54 Model 1951, but this time in the Israeli tech tree as their captured tanks from Arabic countries. Aside from the Chinese Type 59 which is in fact T-54A, the remaining two are identical to the Tiran 4. Thanks to its revolutionary design back in the 1950s and devastating firepower upon penetrating enemy armour, the Tiran 4 can still serve as a spearhead for Israeli players alongside the US-originated Magachs (M48 Patton, M60 series).
-Tiran 4 featured the same D-10T cannon from T-54 series and due to their era of service, it also received all available ammunitions from T-54 Model 1954 ranging from full-caliber BR-412 up to subcaliber 3BM8 or 3BK5 HEAT-FS shells, giving it flexibility to handle most enemies at its tier - whether it is a "Doomsday" heavy tank or wheeled armored cars, there are always a type of ammunition that fits the need. For example, if Tiran 4 now hits the flank of enemy, BR-412 series is the best way to wipe out enemy vehicles from the side thanks to its sufficient penetration and explosive content, a hit in enemies' center-mass is more than enough to disable them if not knocking them out right away; in case of heavy targets like Maus or M103, the 3BK5 HEAT-FS is sufficient to penetrate these targets with its up to 380 mm penetration. While the gun is powerful, players will have to be prepared for enemies beforehand as the turret traverse rate, both vertically and horizontally, is rather slow; it is not a good idea to turn the turret after enemies suddenly appear in front of you. Most NATO enemies have way higher traverse speed than T-54s, let alone wheeled assault guns that might appear when uptiered. Although the armor is enough to stop most full-caliber APCBC from lower tier, but it is also at 8.0 where more advanced shells appear - APFSDS, HEAT-FS, missiles, to name a few; T-54s are infamous for their cramped interior space and water-cooled ammo rack is yet to be introduced in T-55, if the vehicle is penetrated from the right side of front plates (from player's perspective), chances are the fuel tank might sometimes absorb the damage and leaving a fire onboard, or detonation of ammo/fuel tank and the full destruction of the tank. If the situation turns into complete chaos, it is better to find a cover and return fire instead of rushing into the most heated battlefield recklessly, any damages to the components or crews will further decrease Tiran 4's combat efficiency and eventually brings it to demise. Another note is that for logistical reasons, all the machine guns, including the DShK on commander's side, have been replaced by .30 cal M1919A4 machine gun; so bringing some HE shells or HEAT-FS for light vehicles is still viable to overpressure them.
+The Tiran 4 features the same D-10T cannon as the T-54 series, and receives the full range of available ammunition, ranging from full-calibre BR-412 up to subcalibre 3BM8 or 3BK5 HEAT-FS shells, giving it flexibility to handle most enemies at its tier - whether it is a "Doomsday" heavy tank or wheeled armoured cars, there is always a type of ammunition that fits the need. On the flanks, the BR-412 series is the best way to wipe out enemy vehicles from the side thanks to its sufficient penetration and explosive content, a hit in the enemies' centre-mass is more than enough to disable them if not knocking them out right away. In the case of heavy targets like Maus or M103, the 3BK5 HEAT-FS is sufficient to penetrate these targets with its up to 380 mm penetration.
-Overall, Tiran 4 provided different route of playstyle for Israeli tech tree; while there are options to use NATO tanks, opting for Warsaw Pact tanks with better firepower is always viable to bring down as many targets as possible.
+While the gun is powerful, players will have to be prepared for enemies beforehand as the turret traverse rate, both vertically and horizontally, is rather slow; it is not a good idea to only turn the turret after enemies suddenly appear in front of you.

-Since Tiran 4 is mostly identical to the original T-54s other than its machine guns, the overall appearance is basically the same as well.
