Default RE: New HE M1A2 Abrams

Dan, the only real thing they changed was the 2 horn track. You would still need to replace those tracksand sprockets to get them o run reliably. the goofy MG sound when the gun moves is new. Niether MY LEO or Abrams ever did that. they threw on a new paint job and thats it. Yeah, OK 2.4well everyone seems to be going that way nowadays since it prevents the need for specific channle chrystals and everything that goes with it.
Me I'm just going to throw a tamiya KV-1 electronics package in my LEO and Phil is going to get me a full option El-mod set for my Abrams when they come in in March.
So, not all that much is really new here. the suspension mentioned on the LEO is already the suspesion that comes on the tanks now.
Great tanks with some work and if you can get them.
