Send them to Ukraine, they won’t complain.
Send it to Ukraine, we’ll figure it out from there
Hmb while I figure out how to lift it with a drone…
Likely worse armor than MBTs, a worse gun than MBTs. It was designed for combined arms, which we aren’t seeing a lot of anymore. Probably quite vulnerable to FPVs. I don’t think they’d want them.
On the other hand Bradley’s are doing quite well, so maybe a heavier Bradley would work well
Give them to ukriane they could do with the help
I’ve been saying this about the M1128 Wolfpack/MGS as well.
A perfect embodiment of capitalism. Production for the sake of production, infinite growth in a finite system.
I wonder how many people died of starvation in the time this was made
Have they tried shoving it up their own asses?
No room. They’re already filled with comanche helicoptor prototypes.
The usefulness of tanks in warfare is coming to an end, this thing will get taken out by a $2000 to $3000 drone.
They will still keep making them to sell to police.
The same was said when the ATGM was invented. Yet the tank survived all the same.
And with APS becoming more and more common i predict we will continue to see tanks on the battlefield.
It doesn’t only go back to ATGMs, people have been making the claim that tanks are obsolete since tanks were first fielded in combat.
tbf ATGMs only make tanks infeasible if you have a massive supply of them continuously distributed to infantry units (and the latest fancy ones that aim for non ERA weakspots and have CCM against APS), which is what most if not all militaries struggle with.
Plus tanks get a huge buff in their effectivness when properly paired with IFVs and infantry, which can significantly diminish and counter ATGMs (and drones).
A big gun and survivability will always have a place on the battlefield. Until there is something else that can do what tanks can better, they will still be here
