The US Army received the first brigade set of tanks Abrams M1A2 SEPv3




Representatives of General Dynamics, whose enterprises modernize M1A1 Abrams tanks to M1A2 SEPv3, earlier said that under the terms of contracts concluded with the US Department of Defense, by the beginning of 2021, the modernized tank 274 should be delivered to the military. This number is sufficient for the staffing of three armored brigades (staff of the brigade of 87 tanks). In total, the US Department of Defense plans to upgrade the 435 tanks МХNUMXА1 into the M1A1 SEPv2 version for several years.

The modification version М1А2 SEPv3 (M1A2C), today, is the latest program for upgrading Abrams tanks of the US Army. The tank is distinguished by enhanced protection, on-board self-diagnosis system, the transition from the use of quick-change blocks to quick-change modules. The project involves the modernization of the digital architecture of the tank to install a gigabit Ethernet bus. A new fuel management system for the engine and an additional generator is being installed. The tank is equipped with the Israeli system of active protection Trophy APS.

The M829-4 (М829А4) MNNXX1147 armor-piercing projectile, which, according to the creators, is capable of penetrating the armor of all existing and prospective tanks and the Advanced Multi-Purpose HMXNUMX multipurpose multi-purpose tracer with programmers and programmers, programmers, and programmers, has introduced into ammunition. It allows you to hit targets by blasting a projectile in the air at a predetermined distance programmed by the fuse.

The next version of the Abrams tank, SEPv4, is scheduled to go into production with 2022 of the year.

          It’s notorious for tankers ... If we dispossess our Enerof, then it’s enough for KAZ with the SU-57 and a lot more for that ... The creatures have grown fat on our grubs. And the pilots get ZP, like Moscow slippers.

              KAZ costs about 0,5-1 million evergreens. We Armata up to 4 million out, and the T-90S in 2.5. You can’t notice 6 on the Abrams price tag of 7-0.5 million, or on Merkava .. and we have used T-72s who are ready to give anyone for 0.5.

                    After the 2006 war, it was decided to equip the Merkava Mk.4 tank with the Trophy system (it should be noted that the tank initially had the ability to install active protection, but was not equipped with it due to insufficient funding). Tanks with an installed Trophy system are designated as “Merkava Mk.4M”. The cost of one such system is 200 thousand dollars.

                      I’m talking about the contract from 2017 .. I climbed onto the website of the US Ministry of Defense, there is too much information, it takes a long time to search. I recalled the numbers from one of the Israeli readers of the site. What I quickly found. Yes, and if the price tag was within 100-200 thousand, no one would bother ..

                        I'm talking about the contract from 2017

                        with American contracts you need to be careful. There, as a rule, the cost of the system itself and the cost of installing and integrating into the tank equipment are written in a separate line. By the way, all about the same contract (W56HZV-17-C-0067):
                        On September 28, 2017, the U.S. Army contract command issued a contract worth $ 9,899995 million to General Dynamics Land Systems Corporation of General Dynamics Corporation to equip the Israeli-made Trophy active production complex of the M1A2 SEPv2 Abrams main tanks with a set of one Armor Brigade Combat Team. Work must be completed by March 29, 2019. As you can see, General Dynamics Land Systems should only install, integrate and provide technical support for Trophy systems under this contract, and the purchase price of KAZ kits themselves is not included in this contract.

                        KAZ Trophy itself is variable both in configuration and, of course, in value.

              We have in the Moscow Region all silver-free and altruists. And their staff, mainly rats, are much more aware of what to buy, because it’s they who are going to attack on tanks ahead !!! They operate aircraft in Syria and helicopters.
              Do a survey with the military who work, and not the papers shift, what to buy and how, and the guys will answer. I read the article all over that our MTRs were bought from ammunition in Syria - it’s entirely a company, only our shoes began to be made quite good - I mean comrades, but bronics with hats for one get from 300 rubles to 000 rubles of their personal. Even the radio headsets are American, the headphones are active, the pants are American, the shirts are American. Like this. and this is the MTR, and our first KAZ made it and Israel took it to itself with the brains of its relatives. And a small country put it into service, and ours were so happy for the soldiers.

    In order to fix the Abromsoid engine, it needs to be drummed in America at a single plant, they are no longer being produced. Remove the tower, etc. And for example, the T-72 in the field can be repaired in 4 hours if there is a jack and the brain.

                        then why are you depressed by the lack of these systems on our main battle tanks - the T-72 and T-90?

                        talk of including KAZ in modernization began at the end of 2017. I’m clarifying not design work, namely talk about installing on production vehicles. in 2018 they ran in Syria. somewhere by 2020 should begin to set.
                        I again have doubts ... you say that you are a former designer, so you must be a sane person. why not ??? should everyone drop everything and urgently rivet KAZ? see Caliber and C400 - 500, in the ass fleet, in tartar drones and SU57, in the furnace of a new strategist and photon radars! all in the furnace! KAZ do it! yesterday!
                        tell me, do you naively assume that the military budget is rubber? or maybe we are going to fight with tanks tomorrow? or maybe all the same, while we shoot with calibers, and tanks only go to exercises?
                        what and when will be adopted is a matter of priority. KAZ is definitely not a high priority.

                        you better explain me this, I gave you a reference about the fact that the real movement went on the introduction of KAZ in combat units, why does it only cause negative emotions in you? are you a warrior Does it hurt you? By the way, what about Trophy with BOPS? ours claim that Afghanistan and the bops are knocking down. Does it hurt you too?

                        "Afganit" is the Russian active defense complex (KAZ). It is installed in full version on machines of the Armata family (tank T-14, BMP T-15 and others). Separate components of "Afganit", such as a missile destruction system, are also used on other armored combat vehicles, for example, "Kurganets-25".

                        These words prove that KAZ is an optional system. And not some "piece" of Armata, without which she cannot live))

                  Afghanite is placed without exception on all T-14 and T-15 machines, moreover, the machine was originally ground for this complex and cannot be operated without it.
                  Armata without afghanite is like without a gun immediately.
                  On the other hand, 140-150 of these vehicles for 5 years - an extremely small number relative to our total tank fleet.

    When will the design of the sixth generation "Solomons" tanks begin, with an electromagnetic hyperloopic cannon and a "invisible cap" technology with a landing gear from an airplane carpet?
