In January 1978, a program was initiated [30] to develop an enhanced version of the 105mm gun, the M68A1 [31] as a possible alternate weapon for the M1 Abrams. The new XM24/L55 gun barrel was 18 inches (45.72cm) longer in comparison to the XM24/L52 barrel used on the M60 tanks. [32] It has a higher chamber pressure, [26] reinforced breech [a] and a higher muzzle velocity.

The BAR: A Flawed Foundation?

Within days, GM was asked to present a new design with a turbine engine. According to Assistant Secretary for Research and Development Ed Miller, "It became increasingly clear that the only solution which would be acceptable to Clements and Currie was the turbine... It was a political decision that was reached, and for all intents and purposes that decision gave the award to Chrysler since they were the only contractor with a gas turbine."

The M1A2 SEP also serves as the basis for the M104 Wolverine heavy assault bridge. The M1A2 SEPv2 (version 2) added Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station (CROWS or CROWS II) support, color displays, better interfaces, a new operating system, better front and side armor, and an upgraded transmission for better durability.

In May 1973, Chrysler Defense and General Motors submitted proposals. Both were armed with the 105mm M68 gun, the licensed L7, and the 20mm Bushmaster. Chrysler chose a 1,500hp gas turbine Lycoming AGT1500. GM's model was powered by a 1,500hp diesel similar to that used on the American MBT-70 and XM803.

In 2011, the Army anticipated that the remaining M1A1 fleet will remain in U.S. service until at least 2021, and the M1A2 to beyond 2050. [92] The United States Army National Guard will continue using M1A1s for a lengthier, undetermined period. [ citation needed]The commander's M2HB .50caliber machine gun on the M1 and M1A1 is aimed by a 3× magnification sight incorporated into the Commander's Weapon Station (CWS), while the M1A2 uses the machine gun's own iron sights, or a remote aiming system such as the Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station (CROWS) system when used as part of the Tank Urban Survival Kit. The loader's M240 machine gun is aimed either with the built-in iron sights or with a thermal scope mounted on the machine gun. [ citation needed]

In early 1928, both the infantry and cavalry boards ran trials with the .276 Pedersen T1 rifle, calling it "highly promising" [23] (despite its use of waxed ammunition, [24] shared by the Thompson). [25] On August 13, 1928, a semiautomatic rifle board (SRB) carried out joint Army, Navy, and Marine Corps trials between the .30 Thompson, both cavalry and infantry versions of the T1 Pedersen, "M1924" Garand, and .256 Bang, and on September 21, the board reported no clear winner. The .30 Garand, however, was dropped in favor of the .276. [26]
