That guy must feel pretty awesome...
Only until he has to stop for gas in 15 min xD But seriously it would suck *** to tank that beast o.o especially with today's gas prices.
The good thing about Turbine engines is that they can run in any flammable liquid, raw oil, diesel, gasoline, ethanol, kerosene, whiskey.
So no matter how much it burns, it can burn anything, so you will only run out of fuel when you run out of flammables.
most engines can do that to some extent... some better then others. Stirling Engines are the most suited for this ;)
This is my favorite tank.
ABRAM IS BEST TANK OF ALL TANK. IT IS INVINSIBAL ANd CanT BLOW UP. T90 SUX AND CANT DESTRY ABRAM.
But seriously, it's not a bad tank but not invincible. ;)
Just putting that out there for all those 12 year old tards.
Yea no tank is invincible just some are harder to kill than others. But yea a 1,000+ lbs aerial bomb is enough to flip a 60 ton tank on its side just by landing about 10 feet away from the tank so yea the Abrams most certainly can be killed.
Russian RPG-29s in the hands of insurgents have for a fact also penetrated the frontal armor of a Challenger Mark 2 MBT which uses the exact same type of CHABRAM composite armor that the Abrams use.
And just in case any super patriot kids want to argue...

Lots of Abramses were actually destroyed by US-Army itself, because their motive systems failed and they couldn't be recovered. Though, lots of Abramses were also destroyed in combat, mostly in town warfare (it was penetrated by RPG-7 FROM THE SIDE!!)
Great tank but it's old news. I wanna know what the A3 will be able to do. lol
