  1. No, it's a legit M60-2000, and there are no slots in armor because it was most likely meant to different FCS with different LRF mounted in primary sight doghouse.
  2. Yes, big black is thermal sight, then on the right side is day sight + LRF, below them unity sight. These two black things on the left seems to be screws.
  3. Actually we know what it is, this is actual M60-2000. The thing with M1A1 turret was 120S not M60-2000.
  4. Ha, but the turret is M60A1/A3 turret with mockup or real addon armor modules. It really looks like M60AX, perhaps one of the prototypes? Because it's front hull also seems to be uparmored. http://www.military-today.com/tanks/super_m60_l1.jpg http://www.military-today.com/tanks/super_m60_l2.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Vs6K1bR.png PS. Seems like forum have some problems and photos can't be embedded?
  5. https://i.imgur.com/AB5OaBT.jpg https://i.imgur.com/GGrMocK.jpg https://i.imgur.com/bx7nak4.jpg https://i.imgur.com/kBlf0Wo.jpg Either VISMOD or testbed of some sorts.
  6. No, why? When M1147 HEMP will be ready, it will replace M830 HEAT, M830A1 MPAT, M908 HEOR and M1028 Cannister. There is no reason to improve these rounds as they are meant to be replaced anyway. And AMP program is very close to successfull completion.
  7. M1A2C is ECP1A/SEPv3, M1A2D is ECP1B/SEPv4. AMP is a separate program for M1147 HEMP round, and that data link can be used by variety of rounds, like M829A4, M1147 HEMP, I even heard about M242 HEMP which seems to be a US designation for DM11 that is used by USMC. Oh and by the way, these is no such thing as SEP CEEP v2. It was always, only M1A2SEPv2, CEEP was a codename for electronics upgrade. But vehicle itself was only M1A2SEPv2. SB Pro PE M1A2SEP is M1A2SEPv2 but early production variant without M153 CROWS-2 RWS and with few other differences. And as far as I know, SB Pro PE M1A2SEPv2 is not 100% accurate to the real thing, it lacks a lot of things considering FCS and other details. If it would be modeled as the real thing is in real world, then other vehicles would look even more primitive to it than they are now in SB.
  8. US Army/ARNG have: M1A1SA M1A2SEPv2 (it seems all M1A2SEPv1 tanks were converted to M1A2SEPv2 standard to this day) M1A2SEPv3. Yes I am certain, because I have this information from Assassin7 who is US Army tank crewmen and know this, not every information is avaiable for media or for general public yet. M1A2 is M1A2. M1A2SEPv1 was renamed M1A2A. M1A2SEPv2 was renamed M1A2B. M1A2SEPv3 was renamed M1A2C. M1A2SEPv4 was renamed M1A2D. Simple as that. No renaming for A1 series so far.
  9. NRT document confirming use of DU both in turrets and hulls of M1 tanks. https://www.nrc.gov/docs/ML1619/ML16190A098.pdf
  10. http://btvt.info/2futureprojects/490_21vek.htm Something that will interest everyone, very unusual Object 490B "Belka" prototype tank designed by KMDB in 1980's by Evgeni Morozov, son of Alexander Morozov. Some photos of the mockup or prototype.
  11. Polish Army rations are considered as one of the best. And I must say I really enjoy them myself, they can also be purchased on civilian market and I grab one or more if I have opportunity.
  12. This also confirms heavy armor package is in the hull at least starting with M1A1AIM (most likely added in late production HA's or starting with HC's).
  13. Finally Nick Moran "The Chieftain" talks about M1A1, the tank he served in Iraq. This one is USMC M1A1HC named "Spawn", Nick served on US Army/ARNG M1A1HA/HC/AIM (dunno exactly which one) names "Barely Legal". Nick also says he will make one day full "Inside the Hatch" for this M1A1. Anyway, enjoy!
  14. https://www.dvidshub.net/video/631880/ausa-2018-warriors-corner-19-long-range-precision-fires-cross-functional-team-update Interesting video, we can see here M109A6 chassis testbed with M109A8 turret armed with M907 L58 ERCA gun in action.
  15. This is pure BS from that moron Mike "Sparky" Sparks vel BlackTailDefence. There is no true in this, period.
  16. Series production M1A2C tested at Yuma Proving Grounds. M109A6 chassis used as a testbed for M109A8 turret system. M109A8 turret system is a modified M109A7 turret system that adds an autoloader and M907 ERCA L58 gun howitzer. This will be mounted on a new M2A4 IFV and AMPV based chassis for M109A7.
  17. It's a question how big that weakness is. I was inside several MBT's. Currently, the only one I would go in to battle? M1 series, eventually Merkava Mk4.
  18. Thanks to @Assassin 7 I have a confirmation about changes in designation codes of M1 tanks, from now on M1 Block II variants are: M1A2 M1A2A (former M1A2SEPv1) M1A2B (former M1A2SEPv2) M1A2C (former M1A2SEPv3) M1A2D (former M1A2SEPv4) For now no known changes of M1 Block 0 (M1 and M1IP) as well as M1 Block 1 (M1A1 and it's subvariants).
  19. Thanks guys for the answers! @Rotarenegthanks! I will try this scenario tonight!
  20. PT-91M2A1 that was presented outside is considered as better option than PT-91M2A2 that was inside. Funny story why Leopard 2PL prototype was not presented this year, but I think I can't speak about this.
  21. I have a question, is it possible to move scenarios from SB Gold to SB Pro PE? SB Gold had this quiet fun scenario called "A Village Called Netreba" if I recall correctly, I wonder if this scenario could be ported? Eventually was there any recreation of it for SB Pro PE? Could not find it.
