Today, the M1 Abrams, initially introduced in 1980, has gained a reputation as the world’s best tank. That’s no small feat considering the number of tanks available out there. The beastly machine was named after General Creighton Abrams, a prominent commander of military operations during the Vietnam War, and it’s a platform of technological innovation.
It’s equipped with main guns that can shoot projectiles up to 4.7 in (120mm) in size and has an extremely rigid armor fitted with extra layers of steel and depleted uranium. It also boasts caterpillar tracks powered by gas turbine engines. The M1A1 and the M1A2 also came out of the development of the M1 Abrams. Each iteration was heavier and slower but also fitted with far more powerful armaments and advanced technology.
The reason the M1 Abrams has proved so popular in war is because it is not just incredibly tough, it’s also surprisingly mobile. This mobility is due to its treads: continuous steel-plates linked together with chainmail. These treads allow the M1 to tackle all sorts of terrain that normal tires just could not. One thing is for sure, you don’t want to get stuck in this tank’s crossfires. We bet, however, that you do want to see it in action. In our video, we bring you footage of this beast in action and also discuss the science, technology, and engineering that goes into building such a dangerous war machine.

The gas turbine engines on board are absolutely the best dammed turbine blades that money can buy ! I know , I worked in the manufacturing plant for 16 years in Toronto , Canada and handled over 1 million gas turbine blades for that engine program . That's all we made were military gas turbine blades . The engine program was called the AGT 1500 . As each shipment was ready , they were sent to our customer "The Textron/Lycoming Aircraft Company" . The turbine blades for the AGT1500 were made of a certain grade of Stainless Steel , best God dammed turbine blades in the world ! Other engine programs for other customers were MTU , Rolls Royce , General Electric , SNECMA , Pratt & Whitney , Garrett , Airesearch , Rocketdyne ; none of these used stainless steel turbine blades except for the AGT 1500 . I can still picture them vividly in my mind . Last I heard the US government had stock piled about 7000 finished AGT1500 engines in a US warehouse .

These officers had been armor officers in the Hungarian Army trained on Soviet tank designs and they thought very highly of Russian equipment. The plant tour was a briefing on the M-1 and then a tour of the facility that was from raw material to driving a tank off the assembly line. We then took them to live fire, trained them and let them crew a tank. WOW, did they change their tune, They described their experience as "Star Wars".

I think it really depends on who is using M1 Abrams. M1 Abrams is only suitable for the U.S. military in an open battle field against other MBTs. Two of the most crucial criteria for M1 Abrams survival in battle are: (1) you must rule the air and (2) you must have seamless fuel/logistic support. Saudi's campaign in Yeman demonstrated M1 Abrams' vulnerability. The Houthi fighters were able to destroy many M1 Abrams using only AK47, RPG and gasoline. First, the Houthi used RPGs to destroy the fuel supply trucks. Second, the Houthi fighters would lure Saudi M1 Abrams into a wild chase until the tank ran out of fuel (which happened very quickly). Third, the Houthi fighters would use AK47 to force the soldiers to stay inside the tanks. Finally, the Houthi fighters would pour gasoline over the tank and burn the soldiers inside the tank to death.

Meant mostly for troop transport. - Yes in the 3 machine guns, no on all the machine guns on the top of the tank. (1) 240 m machine gun is located beside the main gun barrel. It is controlled by the gunner. There are several other things to nitpick, but those were the most blatant.

These tanks aren't the greatest tanks in the world and the united states isn't telling you the full truth it all they are lying to you, just like how for some reason they can't tell you where all the money is being spent on. Anyways when United States went to war in the gulf War they forgot to mention one thing the type of tanks they were fighting they were very fucking old soviet tanks with no modernization done to them. Plus on top of that Iraq never truly trained their soldiers on tanks to use them correctly nor they had the money to fix them and that is literally factual. Second time in Iraq same shit united states fought a country with tanks that its soldiers barely used or even knew how to fix them because of money. It really shows how weak America is to go against countries with less experience knowing how to use a tank. Also these tanks aren't great they have many weak points lmao 🤣 in the Yemen war well the yemenies proved it that russian cornets take them out like nothing I've seen those videos. Another proof of the amount of bullshit the media and the united states is telling you. Same thing goes to the leopard 2s they been used in war and same shit russian cornets took them out.

@thecoon3193 Год назад

When you deploy 10x less tanks, you expect 10x losses.... Challengers have never been deployed in the numbers the Abrams has.... trying to use the fact that a tank that's only seen combat a handful of times and in extremely small numbers(200 challengers vs 3,000+ Abrams in the case of the Persian Gulf War) as proof that it's superior is just hilariously dumb. The Challenger is just as good as the Abrams, and the Abrams just as good as the Challenger. The only reason Challengers haven't been destroyed by enemy action is that they've seen comparatively far less action than the Abrams has.

@madMARTYNmarsh1981 Год назад

@Dan Ershen but Gordon didn't say that Challenger 2 was a better tank (personally I think they're equal but better for each tanks intended doctrine) only that the Chally 2 hadn't been knocked out by enemy fire like the Abrams has, which is true but also we have to remember that the Chally weighs more and a lot of that tends to come from armour packages (there are a variety of add/remove armour plates to suit any given environment) so it's going to stand up to more hits with a full suite of armour attached. I don't think the numbers thing is valid though; 1 Challenger and 1 Abrams in Iraq or Afghanistan will still have to face the same kinds of weaponry, and Challenger has proven it can withstand numerous hits from weaponry that Abrams wasn't able to. To me it depends on what you want your tank to do for which is better. Both tanks are excellent within their militaries war doctrine. I wouldn't want to be an enemy with those 2 tanks working together against me, chuck in the Leopard 2 as well and I'd be crapping my undies.

The Abrams is great for an open field tank on tank warfare. However, it’s drawbacks are it’s weight which can limit it’s ability to cross bridges. It also is a gas hog and requires very skilled technicians for its maintenance. It was perfect for desert storm. It’s questionable for terrain like Ukraine which has mushy ground and lots of rivers to cross.

@kamraam1464 Год назад

The weight issue is a problem with all tanks, not just the Abrams. The gas isn't a problem because the US military has the support structure in place to keep them fueled (see Desert Storm again). And what's that about maintenance? I know it has flaws, but compared to other tanks it's nothing to be concerned about.

What makes the M1 a great tank is everything on here plus a little more. The tank can shoot over just about any type of terrain at 30 to 45 mph and stay on target. Also has anti air rounds for low flying aircraft (drones and helicopters.) What makes it really stand out is it seamlessly integrates into AWACS who directs air to air and air to ground coordination for the battlefield. Basically you have Apaches , F-16’s ,F-18’s F-22 as well as even AC-130 gunships all working with tanks and troop carriers to do rapid strikes while leapfrogging the battlefield in all directions.

Best tank?! Is that a joke? Outside the US Army, this is possibly the worst tank of our time. Unlike European and Russian tanks, it requires a huge supply and repair base. It has never been used in modern warfare, and any attempts to use a tank in conditions where the enemy even has an old ATGM ended in losses.

General Petraeus said the Ukraine does not have the capabilities to use the M1. They are complicated and heavy.

The Germans Army agrees with this assessment. Modern warfare is won by perfect logistics, excellence in reconnaissance, and brave people.

The M1 Abrams (/ˈeɪbrəmz/)[8] is a third-generation American main battle tank designed by Chrysler Defense (now General Dynamics Land Systems)[9] and named for General Creighton Abrams. Conceived for modern armored ground warfare and now one of the heaviest tanks in service at nearly 68 short tons (62 metric tons), it introduced several modern technologies to US armored forces, including a multifuel turbine engine, sophisticated Chobham composite armor, a computer fire control system, separate ammunition storage in a blowout compartment, and NBC protection for crew safety. Initial models of the M1 were armed with a 105 mm M68 gun, while later variants feature a license-produced Rheinmetall 120 mm L/44 designated M256.

@Jardel it had low production numbers, bad automotive components, for example, the hl230 engine that was used had a chance to backfire and start a fuel fire, the turret was cramped, and the transmission was overstressed by the crazy weight. All it had was it’s great gun, that could kill any allied tank, the only problem was if the unreliable tank could even make it to the fight without breaking down. Also the armor wasn’t great because of poor weld quality and less effective metals used to make the armor.
