THIS IS MORE ABOUT CLEANING OUT MY FILES...

The next two are files I used also in sorting through the in game ABRAMS issues encountered which Don has well in hand now. The first one is the most important one focusing on the M1A2 SEP V3/M1A2C, what's important about is how closely it's tracking in the "RW" and was a key ref. in the submitting of the revised FOC date. I don't know how I didn't post it then.

Also Vietnam is wasting no time in starting training on the first batch of T-90S tanks it received this last January. I'd say for the time being, the revised FOC date submitted is right on track.

I can't believe they're still using the T-34/85 in an operational status.

And finally for the M1A1 FEP, another that got away that was useful in helping establish a timeline for this tank...

This last I don't remember if I posted it or not, I believe what I did post was the USMC assessment as an add on to the M1A1 FEP submission, anyway, here's the "Full Monty" if your in curious sort of state. Again this from a well respected "Think Tank".
