SynopsisThe M1 Abrams has been the premier US main battle tank for more than 30 years, and remains one of the modern world's most formidable tanks. Powered by a unique 1,500-hp gas turbine engine, the agile 65-ton M1 features advanced targeting systems, 120mm main gun, and layers of hi-tech composite armor., The Abrams family of tanks has been the US premier main battle tank for more than 30 years, and remains arguably one of the most formidable tanks in the world. The first tank to boast a power plant with a 1,500-hp gas turbine, the M1 also features air conditioning, primarily for its advanced electronics, but also, by default, for its crews. Conceived during the height of the Cold War, the Abrams has never been called upon to combat a global superpower, but nevertheless has seen extensive combat, particularly in Iraq and Afghanistan. This volume focuses on those combat experiences, in particular the victories and losses of the Abrams and crews on the front lines.
