Retired US Army Colonel Douglas McGregor talked about the “many problems” of American M1 Abrams tanks on his YouTube channel Judging Freedom.
He noted that the main problem with the M1 Abrams tanks is the gas turbine engines. According to McGregor, it’s a “disaster” because it uses too much fuel and gets clogged with mud.
Also, the colonel noted that the engine accelerated the car slowly – up to 80-90 km / h – and this was not enough for success on the battlefield.
McGregor also quoted US Assistant Secretary of Defense Colin Kahl, who described the Abrams as a machine with high maintenance requirements.
Yesterday US President Joe Biden announced On the delivery of 31 M1 Abrams tanks to Ukraine.
