Mine clearing plows: An early example consisted of two mine plows and a chain with a weight running between them. [198] The Mine Clearing Blade System (MCBS): It is capable of clearing mines up to 6 feet in front of the tank's path. [199] Many of us like to abbreviate, we feel like it makes communication simpler, and in most cases it does. However, when discussing the M1 anything, it can make the conversation confusing. In any event, you’re never wrong to ask for clarity, or to use some extra words to make sure you are understood. The gas trap Garand: the early M1 rifle photographed in November 1938.

Forty, George (1995). Tank Action. From the Great War to the Persian Gulf. Allan Sutton Publishing Ltd. ISBN 978-0-75090-479-7.In May 1973, Chrysler Defense and General Motors submitted proposals. Both were armed with the 105mm M68 gun, the licensed L7, and the 20mm Bushmaster. Chrysler chose a 1,500hp gas turbine Lycoming AGT1500. GM's model was powered by a 1,500hp diesel similar to that used on the American MBT-70 and XM803. [24] Surface Clearance Device (SCD): The SCD is employed to clear surface laid mines and IEDs from roads, trails and rough terrain. There are two versions of the SCD; a V-blade optimised for clearing routes and a straight angle-blade which is optimised for clearing staging and assembly areas. [202] The M1 rifle has an internal magazine that is fed by an 8-round en-bloc clip. This o

The gas turbine propulsion system has proven quite reliable in practice and combat, but its high fuel consumption is a serious logistic problem. [138] The engine burns more than 1.67 US gallons per mile (392 Liters/100km) or (60 US gallons (230L) per hour) when traveling cross-country and 10 US gallons (38L) per hour when idle. [ citation needed]The tank was built around this engine [134] and it is multifuel-capable, including diesel, gasoline, marine diesel and jet fuel [135] (such as JP-4 or JP-8). In the AGT1500, jet fuel has poorer fuel economy and operating range compared to diesel. By 1989, the Army was transitioning solely to JP-8 for the M1 Abrams, part of a plan to reduce the service's logistics burden by using a single fuel for aviation and ground vehicles. [136] However, as of 2023, the U.S. Army frequently refuels the Abrams with diesel, which is also used by the Bradley Fighting Vehicle. [137] The Australian M1A1 AIM SA burns diesel fuel, since the use of JP-8 is less common in the Australian Army.
