Default Re: WinSPMBT v13 Corrections

The problem is I don't have any solid information concerning the "HC" version of the M1A1, does it have DU or is it the same as the export version which doesn't? I haven't seen anything referring to the export versions as HA, HC, or anything else that leads me to believe they're anything but the latest version of non-DU armor.

On the assumption (I did in a previous post mention "educated guesses") looking at the first M1A1 (1987) and the M1A1(HA) (1989) and the M1A2's from 2010 and 2017 the M1A1 SA sort of split the difference so I went with that. Might be I should have used the 2010 M1A2's armor values (since I assume all US Army M1's a "heavy armor").

Fallout Re: WinSPMBT v13 Corrections

Alright short and sweet, I gotta get my walk in before work.

1) M1 - Think we're all good here. CHOMBHAM Armor/Same MG as LAST M-60 series but with more advanced ammo.

2) M1A1 - Same armor as above (Slightly improved.)/Performance and "Ride" upgrades and the first to have the 120mm MG.

3) M1A1 HA (Heavy Armor) USA (First to have DU Armor. As used in the Gulf War 1991.), M1A1 HC (Heavy Common) USMC and the M1A1D are the same tank!! This is as the armor values are concerned in the 2002 time period. That time period should fall into the 2nd GEN DU Armor period for the U.S.

In fact the Armor Site even shows them together!!! Why do I even bother posting these refs?????

But what I verified is separate from that site.

4) The M1A1 FEP has HC 3rd Gen DU Armor. Match that to it's corresponding USA ABRAMS and you'll get a better handle on where the armor values stand for the M1A1 FEP.

NO POOPEY when I say start your search with the M1A2 SEP.

USMC HC 3rd Gen DU Armor might be a good search point to start from.

I'm walking!!

Regards,
Pat

Because like me you're a nit-picker?
