The militants of the Ukrainian armed formations sent to the United States, who began to study the later version of the Abrams tanks, will now be engaged in mastering the simpler and, accordingly, budget version of the vehicles that appeared almost 40 years ago.

According to "RG: Russian weapons", a video made by a representative of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at one of the landfills across the ocean recently appeared on the Network. Then the M1A2 got into the lens. Now they are talking about the M1A1, which does not have panoramic thermal imaging sights of commanders and other modern equipment.

Some time ago, when American officials began to declare that the Kiev puppets would receive the M1A2, many military experts were surprised by such generosity from the White House and the Pentagon. It is known that previously Washington did not supply this secret and expensive equipment to anyone, making an exception only for some of its closest allies, and not for free, and if they could provide secrecy.

Now we are talking about a "hot spot" where there is a high probability that the multi-ton "gifts" will be captured by the Russian army. When this happens, it will definitely hit the prestige of the overseas military-industrial complex.

It's one thing to have M142 HIMARS multiple rocket launchers or M270 MLRS variants hiding in the rear at a considerable distance from the line of contact, another thing is tanks and infantry fighting vehicles operating at the forefront. The experience of past operations indicates that many foreign models became trophies of liberating soldiers almost immediately after they were transferred to the front line.

Therefore, it is possible that the Americans will act like the British, forcing the Ukrainian crews of Challenger 2 to load explosive charges into the combat compartment in advance in order to destroy tanks in case of a possible retreat.
