I see a waved Merkava as being more mountain goatish in mobility then flying. This could be lending to the flying Merkava myth when people see them in odd places.
Especially considering how much of a big deal Australia and the US are supposed to be. (Speaking of Oz, as a break from Shadowrunning, I've got something on the boil set on Lake Gairdner. Just a quick one)
I'd imagine Isreal's relations are heavily faction dependant.... rather than seeing Fenspace as a whole, they tend to weigh in behind a couple of factions and corporations with a strong Pro-Isreal ethos. Isreal neither confirms nor denies the use of handwavium within it's military, but it's pretty much an open secret that at the very least, the rocket defence systems around Haifa and most border towns are waved. Reports of flying Merkavas however, are treated with mild derision on most forums.
