About the U.S. M1A2 Abrams Operation Iraqi Freedom:
The M1 Abrams, officially commissioned by the US military in 1980, was designed totally different from previous
post-WWII US military tanks. Although fitted with the same 105mm cannon as the M60, the M1 was powered by a
gas turbine engine and was fitted with spaced armor. Planned to be commissioned by the US military over a long period,
the M1 was designed with future reforms in mind. In 1984, the M1A1 was developed with a 120mm smooth bore
cannon, and a further variant the M1A1HA was later developed featuring depleted uranium armor. This then led to the
M1A2, which was fitted with Intervehicular Information System (IVIS), Commander's Independent Thermal Viewer (CITV)
turret and new style vision block. The M1A1HA and the M1A2 both played significant roles in Operation Iraqi Freedom,
being deployed by land forces as well as the Marine Corps as they moved toward Baghdad.
