Assume it doesn't have reactive armor?

The Merkva tank does have reactive armor. The Israelis were the ones discovered it and the first to use it on their tanks. The problem they are having is the RPG-29S has a tandem warhead. The first one disables the reactive armor, and the second is a shaped charge, which destroys the tanks. Apparently China has sold the RPG-29S to Iran or Syria, who have in turn given it to Hizbollah.

reactive armour can be easiliy defeated with new high tech anti-tank weapons.
