A weapon of opression at its finest.

[screecwe]

@OPworldwideIA Like they oppressed Kuwait when they liberated it? Idiot

[Transcode007]

Having been a tank crewman, I can certify that the M1-series tanks have been run on diesel fuel. Many years ago the Army switched to JP-8, which is a type of jet fuel, so they'd only have to supply one type of fuel on the battlefield. But when they first entered service, they all ran on diesel. The engine's fuel control can adjust to run on just about any type of flammable liquid--though some are better than others about not damaging the other internal components of the engine.

@Transcode007 who cares about internal engine dmg, its gonna get taken out by RPGs anyways.

Typo, Meant A1. But nice way to be a twat.

People are always comparing Russian Tanks to U.S. tanks. The fact of the matter is this is no longer the Cold War, we have more of a chance that another nation would attack us before Russia.

As a U.S. soldier I can say its the crew and the manpower behind these machines that make them so deadly and powerful.

So unless you are a tank crewman or a war expect with a college degree stop having stupid youtube comment wars.

@Ripperger500 y u mad bro

[bigslice19]

WELCOME 2 SIBERIA

[wuyunchi]

@MaximIziurov Agree, can not fight in North East China and Siberia

[MegaBuster777]

@MaximIziurov It doesn't just consume diesel, but anything that can produce a big enough spark. If we were in those types of combat situations we'd modify them for that. This isn't the 60's anymore.

[mannys9130]

@MaximIziurov The M1A2 consumes jet fuel, not diesel. JET FUEL! It has a jet turbine for an engine. If the enemy tank is across the river, the M1 doesn't need to cross the river, it can just snipe it from a safe distance and let the sabot round do the crossing. The manual ammo loader reduces the probability of failure. A person does not have gears that can jam or motors that can burn out. In the Russian tank with the auto loader, if your loader breaks, you're screwed. USA steel any day!

[quickzilver333]

@mannys9130 Most US allies have human loaders instead of machine.

overrated . Turns out they were not facing t72's in iraq after all but t-50s upgraded by Iraqis in the 70's. Digitalized/modernized t-72 is still a threat to the M1. With a smaller profile and bigger gun it is he who fires and spot first. M1 is still one of the best tanks still in service from the last century.

[boyidrski]

there are 2 versions of m1 armabs , m1a1 and m1a2 ---> diffrent desing, digitalized, in most of the video here are pictures of m1a1.

[PumpkinRat]

actually there are alot more than 2... only 3 in service though m1a1 m1a2 and m1a2 sep and earlier versions - m1 - m1 ip

[PumpkinRat]

might even be more

[SmokerFace12]

@boyidrski leopard2 still crushes m1

[boyidrski]

@SmokerFace12

Main and probably only important difference it's engine. It's the crew and terrain who would play critical role, not tanks.

[tylercolby11]

@SmokerFace12 no it doesnt

[mohasa85]

me mola mas el leopard o el merkava, esto es una maquina de gastar gasolina.

[88ABRAMS88]
