    How To Kill An Abrams! (Supposably)

    Well this video is from training i think so it's not reflective of much. Sometimes, yes. But the other side often has the same problem. Against soft targets in immediate threat range Abrams has 2-3 machineguns that work fine for suppressive fire, outside of their range its only tanks or ATGMs...

    How To Kill An Abrams! (Supposably)

    It is, but not a bad one. It's much easier to mission kill a tank than to destroy it, and it's not even as bad as a mobility kill, which will lead to actual kill or abandonment if not well supported. Getting smacked with any decently big HE weapon, even if old, can mission kill a tank worse with...

    How To Kill An Abrams! (Supposably)

    If it gets taken out, the tank still has one round, machineguns, mobility, and the damage is absolutely repairable. They do have a pretty quickly closed door to the ammo storage that is only opened for very brief time.

    How To Kill An Abrams! (Supposably)

    Well no one has invented indestructible tracks, and immobilized tank crews often abandon the vehicle, especially if unsupported. Doubt about Houthis using regular old RPG rounds. Also didn't see Saudi and Iraqi ones having TUSK or any other ERA. Doubt it. Houthis notably fire their ATGMs at the...

    How To Kill An Abrams! (Supposably)

    No, it has a gas turbine, the least picky kind of engine a tank can have. US military runs them on kerosene based jet fuel to ease logistics and maintenance, but in wartime conditions it can be fed gasoline, diesel, marine diesel, or even fucking pure ethanol, though in some parts of the world...

    How To Kill An Abrams! (Supposably)

    Kinda. Though less than the top part of any other tanks (see how Javelin and NLAW work), as that's a section specifically meant to be exploded away if the compartment behind it gets penetrated and exploded which is what will happen in that case. If a tank without blowout panels get hit in that...

    How To Kill An Abrams! (Supposably)

    Heavy tandem ATGMs. At least as long as even most in US service still have no APS.

    How To Kill An Abrams! (Supposably)

    Lots of general anti-tank advice. Too general, seems like more of a morale booster for Russian mobiks to make them not scram when they see a western tank. For one i would not want to be the guy firing old model RPGs (and with TUSK addon armor even the new ones) at the side of an Abrams, also the...
