Central Europe, bordered by
Germany to the west; the
Czech Republic and
Slovakia to the south;
Ukraine,
Belarus to the east; and the
Baltic Sea and

A tank is a tracked, armoured fighting vehicle designed for front-line combat which combines operational mobility and tactical offensive and defensive capabilities.
Firepower is normally provided by a large-calibre main gun in a rotating turret and secondary machine guns, while heavy armour and all-terrain mobility provide protection for the tank and its crew, allowing it to perform all primary tasks of the armoured troops on the battlefield.[1]
The M1
Abrams is an
American third-generation main battle tank produced by the
United States. It is named after
General Creighton Abrams, former
Army Chief of Staff and
Commander of
U.S. military forces in the
Vietnam War from
1968 to
1972. Highly mobile, designed for modern armored ground warfare,[10] the M1 is well armed and heavily armored. Notable features include the use of a powerful gas turbine engine (multifuel capable, usually fueled with
JP8 jet fuel), the adoption of sophisticated composite armor, and separate ammunition storage in a blow-out compartment for crew safety. Weighing nearly 68 short tons (almost 62 metric tons), it is one of the heaviest main battle tanks in service.
The M1 Abrams entered
U.S. service in
1980, replacing the
M60 tank.[11] It served for over a decade alongside the improved
M60A3, which had entered service in 1978. The M1 remains the principal main battle tank of the
United States Army and
Marine Corps, and the armies of
Egypt,
Kuwait,
Saudi Arabia,
Australia, and
Iraq.
