Simply the following from the
source that matters:
AUSTRAILIA/ADD/ABRAMS M1A2C EXPORT/START/APR 2025. // As already built from last year. That date based on
my best guess from the following quote...
"About 130 soldiers and officers learned the ins and outs of the new battle tank before the
first of 75 M1A2s begin to enter service in early next year (2025-mine) with 2 Cav Regt."
Unfortunately, the page
would not allow me to "
cut and paste" so a little back and forth was required.
It was also reporting on the live firing testing and quals currently ongoing. Picture showed three tanks.
Paint schemes
same AUSCAMO as revised so the
newer Icons are good.
One of the Senior tanker's WO 1 Bernie Maus reports "...enhancements are like going from Windows 98 to the latest operating system." Also,
"After a short burst, crews can hit targets at 2500 metres every time."
I will attempt to post the page from the paper. Again,
THIS IS NOT LIKE our Army Times or any of our other branch services "Times". This is
directly from their Army with the other services having their own as well.
