M1 Abrams is a 3rd generation main battle tank found in the inventory of Egypt, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Australia and 2010, as well as the US Land Forces and Marine Posts. It is the basic tank class used by the American Army with three main types (M1a1 and M1a2), which emerged from 1980 (M1a1 and M1a2). New generation armor and electronic systems have been used in recent M1A2 models. Tank was named after the former Chief of General Staff General Creighton Abrams, who served between 1968 and 1972.
The M1 Abrams tank was included in the army service instead of the M60 Patton tank used earlier. However, it is planned to remain in the US army until 2050. It is a tank developed for the US's modern armored war program with an ammunition storage cabin in a separate explosion cell for personnel safety, a sophisticated composite composite composite composite composite agglomeration. It is one of the heaviest battle tanks with a weight of 61.7 tons. In addition, it has a significant advantage in the battlefield with a 120 mm tank ball. The first M1 model was followed by the improvements made in electronic and armor systems and M1A1 and M1A2 models.
The target determination system, independent of the tank commander's ball barrel, enables the marksman with the determined targets, while the tank commander can seek new targets. The electronic systems, which are also found in M60 tanks such as thermal viewing system, laser telemetre firing support computer and stabilization, are among the standard equipment of M1 tanks.

During the operation against Iraq, no tank crew was lost. The most important reason for this was unrivaled air support. The most important conflict was made for 7 T-72 in Mahmudiye near Baghdad. In this conflict, the American side has not lost any loss. However, on 29 September 2003, two crew members were killed and 3 were injured in the explosion near an anti-tank mine. The most important lesson learned in the Desert Storm Operation was not exposed to friendly fire. For this reason, as other vehicles, panels were placed in the tanks. It was a four -pointed box that would allow these panels to be identified in all aspects of the tanks. Tank missile missiles were also given at4 shoulders to be used for the tank crew. In addition, a second warehouse behind the tank was made by making extra goods and equipment.
During the operation, an Abrams tank belonging to the 3rd Infantry Division fell to the Euphrates River. 4 crew drowned.
During the first attacks made to Baghdad, the tank was hit in the rear engine part of the gas turbine to reach a fire. After receiving the necessary equipment, the crew was separated by throwing a grenade into it and then he was shot by another M1A1 with heat bullets. However, when it was seen that it was still intact, it was destroyed by a AGM-65 Maverick missile thrown from an A10 Thunderbolt.
On November 27, 2004, close to 34 pounds near IED (British → Improvised Explosive Device, improvised explosive device) detonated this explosion driver was seriously injured without the remaining crew.
As a result of the explosion of the explosion near Baghdad on 25 December 2005, a M1a1 began to burn and one person died of the crew.
On June 4, 2006, two crew members died as a result of an IED explosion near M1a2.
In addition to the conflict, some tank crew lost their lives as a result of Juba (sniper) fire. These events are displayed by the attacks and used for propaganda purposes.
In addition, approximately 80 M1 Abrams tank was destroyed by resistance groups during the occupation.
