M1 Abrams tank in terrorist hands

Well, isn't that peachy.

(Tank shows up fleetingly at one point, then a bit more steady around the 3 minute mark).

The have more then US tanks.

It will be interesting to see if they can:
a) Keep it fueled, they are thirsty beasts
b) Keep it running, they can be maintenance intensive
c) Keep it armed, M1 Main Gun tank rounds just don't show up in most ammo stockpiles

I'd be more concerned with them analyzing it to find weak points they can exploit, or duplicating some of the advanced tech(targeting systems and comms, mostly).

Meh: they are going to crash it.

Yep, targeting and comms are what I'm worried about. We should have dropped a JDAM on it by now...

Catchy tune

Weren't the M1A1's we gave to the Iraqis severely watered-down in just about every department?

Ah ha, that's where my tax money has been going. Arming more terrorists, isnt it a wonderful world.
