| #1 and a batch of T-90M "Breakthrough" tanks To put this in perspective: *The T-90 is an upgraded T-72. The T-72 has been in service since 1979. There's been about 3200 of them built. *Our armor mainstay is the M1 Abrams, in service since 1979 as well. It has been decisively kicking T-series tank a$$ since 1991, and we've built almost 10,300 of them. The latest version, the M1A2D SEP is a very literal Doomsday machine against other tanks. *Given Mike |
