The Longevity Of The M1 Abrams

One of the coolest facts about M1 Abrams is its longevity. The M1 Abrams has seen combat in the Persian Gulf War, War in Afghanistan, Iraq War, Iraqi Civil War, and Saudi Arabian-led intervention in Yemen. It has evolved from a Cold War-era brute to a modernized tactical weapon and continues to improve. For example, in 2009, information about the development of an M1A3 was publicly released. The U.S. Army began designs early that year.
