The
M1A1 Abrams main battle tank is the principal combat tank of the
United States Army (and USMC of course).
The
M1 Abrams was designed by the General Dynamics Corporation and
first entered US Army service around 1980.
An
improved version of the M1, the M1A1 was introduced around 1985.
The M1A1 has a 120mm smoothbore gun developed by Rheinmetall GmbH
of Germany. These guns, loaded with depleted-uranium shells, proved
extraordinarily lethal to the tanks.
Later
the M1A2 SEP and TUSK versions entered service, with more protecion
against IEDs and unconventional weapon tactics.
What
makes the M1A1 a leader in tank design is it's ability to fire
on a target, even while operating at top speed. Once the barrel
(weapons system) is locked on a target, no matter what kind of
uneven terrain is covered or how the tank corners, the barrel
stays locked on the target.
