I remeber once my Maruader was squished by one of those. I miss that thing  and how overPowered it was, you could over run a whole GLA base with only four.

Too bad they probably don't have the money to make the numbers of them they need.

M1 because it has been battle proven. Another battle tested tank:

the abrams is more of a tanking system, some of the hulls are pushing what, 25 years old? alot of the other tanks listed are standalone models that, after a few upgrades, have to practically be scrapped and redesigned from the treads up, show me another tank that's old enough to buy alcohol and maintains the level of lethality of the abrams and I'll consider you're argument, til then, abrams wins

Abrams. It's never lost in tank on tank combat (though I'm not sure if it's ever been in it ).

How is that a good reason?  have they gone up against somthing as kickass challanger2? no they have destoryed old russain tanks with little armour an lacking the firepower or range to even fire back at them!

Btw, a Challanger 2 would kick your abrams ass

That's false. They lost around 4 or so in the First Gulf War.

that's why i don't put much stock in the leopard as of yet, only 2 kills on unarmored vehicles in kosovo to date, even less of a record to run on than the challenger.

The Israeli Merkava(sp), then the Challenger or M1A2.  Mostly depends on the situation because they all have strong points.  The soviets stuff is all crap, looks good on paper but sucks in reality.  The Israeli's built a system that works and can haul ammo/troops into battle.  It is made to fight in the desert and is the best desert tank hands down. 

All you people looking at "stats" need to remember that "stats" don't mean crap.  The M1 can run on many different types for fuel and can carry a Vampire to suck fuel from captured vehicles and such.  It is also big and comfortable by tank standards which means alot in battle.  Also its rated speed doesn't mean squat because it is a governed speed.  The fact is that the 1500hp turbine can make the tank go so fast that the tracks will expand out and come apart.  Fire control systems and ammo mean a hell of alot also.

I base my opinion on what I would not want to go up against in battle and from the experience of being a tanker.

Yeah, it sounds stupid and unimportant.  But most other tanks are diesel only.  Really sucks when the only thing available are gasoline from peoples cars, or gasoline at a gas station, kerosine, jet fuel, ethenol.....

Also the engine and transmission on a M1 can be completely changed in less then 45 minutes in the field.  Try to do that with any soviet/russian tank.

It was for it's time of introduction to WWII. I'd take the Panzer V 'Panther' over any tank from WWII any day.

I'd take the Tiger II (King Tiger) over the Panther.

Thickest armor, biggest gun... the Tiger II wins.

but the Panzer IV was still the best.

I've seen it before.

The Tiger is not the best tank ever, nor is it the best tank of WWII. I've seen many people on a different forum debate this topic over and over about the Tiger, and it always ends in tears.

The King Tiger had the best gun, not the biggest. The M26 'Pershing' had a 90mm M3 gun, used on the M36 'Jackson' as well, while the King Tiger had a 88mm KwK 43 L/71 gun.

EDIT: For punctuation. ;P
