M1A2 is the more advanced model.
Chuck Norris invented the M1A1 Abrams tank after one of his movies because he had nothing else to do.
M1A1 Abrams....yeah.....it's Americas MBT(Main Battle Tank)
this answer is not ture for many reason one. the m1a1 is a out dated verison of the m1a2 and the most advanced tank in the world is the British Challenger 2
4 m1a1 Abrams tank were destroyed, only in the first gulf war
The lifting capacity of a helicopter varies depending on the density of the air, however- a Chinook cannot lift an Abrams under ANY circumstances. The load capacity of a Chinook is around 11,5 tons. The M1A1 weighs 63 tons. Fail.
M1a2 stats: 125mm smoothbore cannon,1500 hp and manual loader
the engine holds around 22 quarts and the tranny is about 32 gallons
The crew inside probably wouldn't even notice the hit.
The M1A1 Abrams tank is primarily manufactured in the United States. It is produced by the American defense contractor General Dynamics Land Systems. Some components and subsystems for the tank may also be produced by various subcontractors located in different parts of the United States.
M1A2 and M1A1 Abrams. There MIGHT still be some M60A3 tanks in use with the National Guard.
well the Abrams costs around 6.21 million dollars a piece and their are about 10,000 currently being used by the us military so we have used about 62 trillion dollars on m1a1's alone
