In war, even great battle tank classes are destroyed...in tank warfare, I have always placed as high a value as training, logistics, and tactics, not to mention air cover, although drones do appear to have shifted that scale.
The M1 is an excellent, proven platform. But it is a tank nonetheless.
I used to know a guy who was a Ranger, decorated combat veteran, all that stuff, who used to say they’d never get him into a tank. That was even before drones came along.
Hopefully the US people on the ground will recover the disabled tanks and bring them back to the US.
The tanks can be sent to the Lima Tank Plant in Ohio to be rebuilt.
There are no more of the M1 chassis being built but the tank can be rebuilt from the chassis up.
The likely problem is that it was outnumbered. When you’re being shot at from all directions, there is not much hope.
