ABRAMS FAMILY
The legendary Abrams tank provides troops with a proven, unrivaled and decisive edge in combat. The Army’s main battle tank since it entered U.S. service in 1980, the Abrams remains the top tank choice today for the U.S. Army, U.S. National Guard and the U.S. Marine Corps. It is also popular with several international armies, including Egypt, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Australia and Iraq. General Dynamics engineers put survivability ahead of all other considerations when they began the M1 series of tanks. Mobility, lethality, adaptability and maintainability were all important elements, but survivability continues to be the number one discriminator in the Abrams family of tanks. Whether it’s the M1A1 or the advanced capabilities of the next-generation M1A2, when you combine these survivability features with unmatched quickness and mobility, you have a tank that is formidable and dominates the battlefield.
