One of my coolest pics (in my opinion). I took this from the drivers seat of an M1A2 Abrams. We were doing night manuvers, and I had my camera and figured what the hell, so I placed it in the big viewing screen and took a few pics. They turned out far better than I would have ever dreamed.

This is machine gun fire from a coax M240 on a second tank alongside us.

Thanks, and thanks for the fav. :)

I'll have you know though that Night Vision viewer really screws with your eyes after awhile. @_@

Depends on which one you'll get to look into. There's three types that you might see. The M1A1, M1A2, or the M1A2SEP which I haven't been in yet, but looks really cool with all the new gear within.

So enjoy, and ask questions. Ask the enlisted guy in charge of the vehicle if the Army has taken care of the soft spots in the armor issue. Every so often a few would make it to a unit that has some bad faults, and that was one of them. He'll know how to show you to test for them, if he's a good tanker.
