Russia's Armata Tank vs. America's M-1 Abrams, Who Wins?
The M1 Abrams is an American third-generation main battle tank.
It is named after General Creighton Abrams, former Army chief of staff and commander of United States military forces in the Vietnam War from 1968 to 1972. Highly mobile, designed for modern armored ground warfare,[14] the M1 is well armed and heavily armored. Notable features include the use of a powerful multifuel turbine engine, the adoption of sophisticated composite armor, and separate ammunition storage in a blow-out compartment for crew safety. Weighing nearly 68 short tons (almost 62 metric tons), it is one of the heaviest main battle tanks in service.
The T-14 Armata is a new Russian main battle tank based on the Armata Universal Combat Platform. It is the first series-produced next generation tank. The Russian army plans to acquire 2,300 T-14s in the period 2015-2020
