The plan to eliminate the tanks is half the story...by 2025 the Future Combat System will replace the "eliminated" tanks. This guy is selling snake oil to the uninformed. I agree that keeping lethal systems is essential but by 2025 the M1 will be 50 years old, maybe we should eliminate it if there is a better system.

Let's just say that I need to be made a believer.

Am not all that familiar w/ FCS, but we'll see if the service remains committed to a new "common chassis" program or not.

They should not have cancelled Crusader.
