Full Name

M1 Alteration 2 (M1A2)

Armor-System Enhancement Package v3 2017 Variant (A-SEPv3)

The M1 Abrams is a third-generation American main battle tank designed by Chrysler Defense (now General Dynamics Land Systems) and named for General Creighton Abrams. Conceived for modern armored ground warfare, it is one of the heaviest tanks in service at nearly 73.6 short tons (66.8 metric tons). It introduced several modern technologies to United States armored forces, including a multifuel turbine engine, sophisticated Chobham composite armor, a computer fire control system, separate ammunition storage in a blowout compartment, and NBC protection for crew safety. Initial models of the M1 were armed with a 105 mm M68 gun, while later variants feature a license-produced Rheinmetall 120 mm L/44 designated M256.

** DISCLAIMER: "A-SEPv3" is a fictional package name, as the nonfiction counterpart is actually named the "SEPv3", so do not mistake the name "A-SEPv3" to be the actual package itself. I used the name "A-SEPv3" to differentiate it from the actual package as what is done is not accurate to said package. (example: I unrealistically increased the armor in some points of the tank while the actual SEPv3 did not do so.) **
