No, we won’t, because most of our M1s can’t advance with infantry in direct support due to the exhaust temps. The MOUT kit (which makes the M1 look a lot like this) does alleviate that but it’s not perfect. At best we have a slight advantage in city fighting, where it’s usually the tank that shoots first that wins.

Also, the T-72 now has a tandem-warhead round intended to burn through the M1’s armor.

Are you still living in the 80s?
