American M1A1 Abrams tank spotted near the front line in the Kupyansk direction

The command of the Ukrainian Armed Forces could transfer M1A1 Abrams received from the United States to the line of combat contact, photo of one of the American tanks appeared on Ukrainian resources. Allegedly, the photo was taken somewhere in the Kupyansky direction.

Russian military expert Boris Rozhin drew attention to the picture of the Abrams, which he wrote about in his TG channel. According to the expert, if this is true, then the “hunt” for American tanks is open. The Russian military is looking forward to the appearance of American tanks on the front line, which were supposed to “break through” Russian defenses. That's what the Americans said.



"Abrams" leaned out of the forest. As they say, in the Kupyansky direction. The hunt has begun

- Rozhin wrote.

Kyiv received 31 M1A1 Abrams tanks at the end of September, after which there was no information about them. It was assumed, at least by foreign experts, that the command of the Ukrainian Armed Forces decided not to send American tanks to the front line, since they were “not intended” to participate in combat operations in winter. It was believed that they were being saved for the spring counter-offensive that Zelensky had planned.

It is possible that the Ukrainian generals decided to throw the Abrams into battle near Kupyansk, where a rather difficult situation has developed for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Russian troops are pressing, and there are no reserves. On the other hand, now there are rains and impassable fields in which much lighter armored vehicles get stuck. However, we have already seen German and British burnt tanks, it’s time to burn the American ones too.

    It would be more profitable for the VSU officers to call the call sign “Don” and sell the Abramash to a Russian museum than to be buried there. Voentorg is better than Military Mobilization of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
    And it’s better to sell Kuban weapons themselves into the arms of the Russian Armed Forces.

          The sissy tank runs on pure kerosene; don’t drive through fields and mud, otherwise it will get stuck. And don’t get too close to the BS line at all, otherwise you’ll get shot...
          It is more profitable for them to give up, and in the best traditions to sell the piece of iron. I would be willing to take on the first one.

      Only not the Don, but the Volga.
      This is a stupid idea. M1A1 is a rather ancient machine. T-62 level. And even without modern body kit and electronics. Not a good idea, but let them try. An attempt, as they say, is not torture.

        The fact that the striped ones lack experience is understandable, but the fact that the Ukrainians are dragging tanks with rubberized goosenecks to the front line (see photo in the article) is beyond understanding.

          The forehead and cheekbones of the tower, as well as the lower frontal detail. But the upper windshield, which is almost horizontal, is very weak - it’s like not 25 - 30 mm. The sides of both the Abram and Leo are at least two times weaker than our T-72 and T-80 - 35-40 mm. against our 80 mm. The roof of the tower is also VERY weak - 15 - 20 mm. versus ours 40 - 45 mm. We easily attach dynamic protection to the roofs of the towers... but the roof of the "Abram" and "Leo" can be broken if it is triggered.
          The shame of “Abramov” would have been much brighter if the Ukrainian Armed Forces had used it back in the summer... That’s why they weren’t given them.
          Now they are just one bite away from the Lancets and FPV drones.

      But old man Biden did not deceive: they sent one of the best modifications of the M1A1 - SA. Although not FEP from the Marine Corps, it is well stuffed with the benefits of the tank industry. And a digital fire control system, and a gunner’s thermal imager with a fierce magnification of x50 (if the memory hasn’t failed), and a thermal imaging device on the commander’s remote launcher. And the armor, by replacing uranium with an export component, could be strengthened, as in the case of tanks for Taiwan and other current buyers.

    Abrams" leaned out of the forest
    In order to look around and probe the situation? They hid in the rear for two months and finally decided to send them to the front line, but obviously not all of them, but a few for testing. As soon as our people burn a couple, Zelensky will hide them again, and probably now for the protection of Bankova. Otherwise, the main sponsor of the war may be offended by the fact that their tanks were destroyed.
    And the soil in the photo is sandy and dry and is not at all similar to the one that appears in the video today.
