The Russian Armed Forces destroyed an American Abrams tank for the first time in the Northern Military District zone
After German fires burned en masse during the failed Ukrainian counteroffensive in the Northern Military District zone Tanks “Leopard”, many of our compatriots had a question: when will the famous American M1A1 Abrams join the German “cats”? In addition, Russian actor Ivan Okhlobystin even promised 10 million rubles to the fighters who would destroy the “miracle machine” from the United States.
Let us recall that Kyiv received the above-mentioned tanks from Washington back in September last year. At the same time, not a single American MBT was destroyed by our military. Up to this day.
According to Russian military officers, the first M1A1 Abrams was burned by soldiers of the 15th Brigade in Berdychi, northwest of liberated Avdeevka.
It is worth noting that I was at VO literally today published material that mentioned an American tank driving alone through the streets of the above-mentioned settlement, where the Ukrainian Armed Forces decided to set up the next line of defense.
The car was reportedly tracked down by Zala operators. Then the M1A1 Abrams was hit drone-kamikaze, and in pursuit the soldiers of the 15th brigade finished him off with a grenade launcher.

It is worth adding that the first American tank was destroyed only almost five months after its arrival in Ukraine, not because it was so invulnerable. It’s just that before this, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, at the urgent request of their American partners, did not throw the MBTs of the US Armed Forces into battle, but used them mainly as artillery.
