Australia: Again tanks are rolling to an embarkation port (Norfolk as I don't think they'll trans-ship these across the U.S. by rail.) this time it's the M1A2 SEP V3 with this first batch numbering 27 Units which is 4 shy of the 31 M1A1 tanks they operate now.

IOC is to occur in 2025, I feel since their new trainers are already on the way home if not there already. If so and with the years they've been operating the ABRAMS and knowing some of the training simulators are in country (Remember I do get their official Army Times "paper".), I feel the "swag" in this case for ONLY the reasons just stated I feel a START JAN 2025 would again in this case be warranted.

If Australia does transfer the M1A1 to the Ukraine, it'll have no game impact.

Again, glad we prepped all those export tanks last time around and updated some others that the Ukraine got. I like it when the "RL/RW" SUPPORTS THE WORK WE DO HERE.

Please tell me we not planning in putting these into the game. I can see the AI buying these (Well not mine it's smarter than that-I hope!) that'd be a waste of resources. The second ref. says it was a drone that took it out in the first place.
