“Dracula,” “The Beast,” And “Whispering Death.”
Due to its discreet maneuverability and firepower, M1 Abrams has been given unofficial titles such as “Dracula,” “The Beast,” and “Whispering Death.” These are good monster names for a monster tank. Along with these, in the military exercise Defender Europe 2020, participants wrote nicknames on the long barrels. Some include “Django,” “Body Count,” and “Stallion.” One that got a lot of attention was the U.S. Army’s “Baby Yoda” nicknamed after a fan given title for a character on the Star Wars TV show “The Mandalorian.” Why the heck not?
