Description
The M1A2 is a new version of the M1 family. All of the wartime realities and the experiences that the M1A1HA went through during the Gulf War were factors considered in the creation of the M1A2. This tank is a product of advanced technology in the age of electronic information systems. All hardware and software in the M1A2 is up to date, and the information transfer is digital with Bus-systems. With the System Enhancement program (SEP), the US Army will upgrade a total of 1079 old M1 tanks to the M1A2 standard. In addition to these 1079 rebuilt tanks, the Army has 62 newly produced M1A2 and 19 pilot vehicles in their inventory.
