Thank you.

Abrams Icon v1.1 set
 

The USMC developed a new combat engineer vehicle based off the existing Abrams' chasis. After discovering the deployment of this new variant of the Abrams. I decided to add it to this set. So here it is. The ABV, Assault Breecher Vehicle.

Enjoy

Re: Abrams Icon set
 

For those of you who will inevitably be thinking this should be added to the game ASAP......

The reason this wasn't added to the game last patch release after it had made it's combat debut was because, game wise, it doesn't do anything the existing mine plow / Engineering Abrams MCBS doesn't already do and the MCBS has a 120mm gun and a full load of ammo. Granted you'd get and armoured mine plow for about half the cost of a MCBS but you won't get the explosive mine clearing capability because we don't model that in the game ( and that's why all the other nations that use that type of system don't have their vehicles in the game either ) but I felt it would get limited use as most players would rather spend a bit more and have a fully functional tank

It is, however, an interesting looking vehicle and Icon

Don,

Completely understandable. I thought it could be used like the M728 CEV but without the coax and 165mm demo gun. lol A support element. I know the MICLIC isn't modeled in game and most likely never will be, but would be cool though, and not asking or expecting it either at all. I just think its a mean looking machine and I wanted to make the icons. So I posted it for the community. If you do decide to put the ABV in the game, feel free to use them. ;)
