    M1A2 Abrams MBT guide


    Hey guys,
    First, I'd like to thank each and every one of you for dropping a comment to the Bradley subject, although I have to admit that the LAV-25 is in fact NOT the Bradley M2 or M3 APC.

    Thanks to Rafterman for clearing this out. Also, thanks to Chris Redfield for helping me out on the Barret subject, the EA games company sometimes ends up with a 1/2 assed job that we are supposed to go out there and buy.

    Today I'm giving you another insight of the M1A2 Abrams MBT,

    I hope you enjoy it.... )

    Eryx is guided just like the SRAW...

      Nope. I am confident it is the M1A2. Though in reality, the USMC mainly uses the M1A1.

            IRL, Eryx=wire-guided (like it is now, you're thinking of the RPG), SRAW=fire and forget.

              I thought they are using the M1A2 with SEP package now.

              The M1A2 SEP contains an embedded version of the US Army's Force XXI command and control architecture; new Raytheon Commander's Independent Thermal Viewer (CITV) with second generation thermal imager; commander's display for digital colour terrain maps; DRS Techologies second generation GEN II TIS thermal imaging gunner's sight with increased range; driver's integrated display and thermal management system.

                Yes, but this is BF2 so both Eryx and SRAW are wire guided.

                    Yep.

                    It's supposed to be like the SRAW, but a DICE member happened to be playing about with the tweak files, and in his haste, forgot to set a few values from 0 to 1, and *AHEM* introduced a new *FEATURE* for the ERYX.

                      I could be wrong, but its the Army that uses the M1A2 along with the SEP variant, but they have an alliance (could I say?) with the USMC on the usage of M1A2 SEP's.

                      I ain't part of the army, but its my rough knowledge of history and Design Technology.
