Alright short and sweet, I gotta get my walk in before work.
1)
M1 - Think we're all good here. CHOMBHAM Armor/Same MG as LAST
M-60 series but with more advanced ammo.
2)
M1A1 - Same armor as above (Slightly improved.)/Performance and "Ride" upgrades and the
first to have the 120mm MG.
3)
M1A1 HA (Heavy Armor) USA (First to have DU Armor. As used in the Gulf War 1991.),
M1A1 HC (Heavy Common) USMC and the
M1A1D are the
same tank!! This is as the
armor values are concerned in the
2002 time period. That time period
should fall into the
2nd GEN DU Armor period for the U.S.
In fact the
Armor Site even shows them together!!! Why do I even bother posting these refs?????
But what I verified is
separate from that site.
4) The
M1A1 FEP has
HC 3rd Gen DU Armor. Match that to it's
corresponding USA ABRAMS and you'll get a better handle on where the armor values stand for the
M1A1 FEP.
NO POOPEY when I say start your search with the M1A2 SEP.
USMC HC 3rd Gen DU Armor might be a good search point to start from.
I'm walking!!
Regards,
Pat
