#8  Breaking a track is still a mobility kill and the 30mm rounds from the A-10 can do that easily. I doubt these idiot know how to repair it and even if they did I doubt they have extra track around.

And a Maverick through the top armor will still kill an Abrams.

#5  #3 Grunter not sure a 32mm shell is going to take out an Abrahms, if that's what it really is. The rest of the convoy however LOL.

Ship,

The first 30mm round will probably not hurt it much. The following 1,999, however.....:D

#1  You know, if only we had a slow, low flying plane armed with a great big cannon it could go up and down that convoy and really do some damage.
