New Iranian Tank??

I read that the abrams never faced a tank in "Iraq" Not so, during the first gulf several units took the old monsters that Iraq had head on and took them out many times before they even saw us coming. The black eagle is a beautiful tank and a fine piece of work. As far as russia selling them to Iran - no chance. Russia might be a little prone to taking risks but they are in no way stupid. I have been there many times over the last few years and they are a smart people and very tough.
But we did take alot of tanks head on and it was not all air support.

the US just blew the **** out of them with hell fire missiles from the air
and other missiles,

Google "The Battle of 73 Easting" read about it and rethink this statement.

Warthog Chow! If the Abrams don't get them first. I personally don't think that we will invade Iran, but if we do those things are going to live a short but exciting life. Actually a B-2 putting a GPS 500lb on the turret might be the way to go. So many weapons systems, so few tanks.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

For every tank, there is a humiliating demise brought upon by a tankbuster, especially the Warthog.

Shattered OUT...
