M1A2 Abrams is the main battle tank of the United States Army, which entered operational service in the mid-1990s. Its improved version over the previous M1A1 variant primarily included advanced electronics, battlefield management systems, and additional next-generation modular composite armor. M1A2 tanks were widely used in military conflicts at the end of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st centuries, such as operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Abrams tanks have also been used by the armed forces of allied countries, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Kuwait, making it one of the most recognizable vehicles of the Cold War and modern times.
