Here's what I found in the limited time I have right now before everything up to going to work. It seems the USMC
M1A1HC FEP falls somewhere closer to being in between the USA
SEP V1 and
SEP V2. Also the "big push" to get the tanks closer to the
SEP V3 started about 2015 - 2025 ten modernization program. Obviously this got somewhat delayed but, the
APS will appear as the first step in that process.
Concerning the
M1A1HC FEP it appears the
ONLY improvements are to the
NBC System and
TI/GSR per REF. 1. That being said I recommend the following: 1)
FOC mid 2014. 2)
TI/GSR 50/STABILISER take the
average of SEP V1 and SEP V2 apply to this tank. I don't even know if the
M1A1HC FEP is in the game or what those values above are. I leave you to do that leg work.
No armor improvements as suggested in REF. 2 that I can find in the time I have today. That by
REF. 1 will be in the final phase during
SLEP.
