Russian T-72 Destroys The M1 Abrams with Its First Shot
Ғылым және технология
The war in Ukraine has escalated into a fierce battleground where both Russia and Ukraine are relentlessly targeting each other's military equipment. This prolonged conflict has resulted in the destruction of numerous tanks, leading to Ukraine being dubbed the "tank graveyard."
Amidst this, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation recently announced that a T-72B3 tank had destroyed an American-supplied M1 Abrams tank in Ukraine. This incident reportedly occurred near Avdiivka, with the Russian ministry spokesperson claiming that the T-72B3 achieved this feat "with the first shot."
Notably, this is not the first time this particular T-72B3 tank has been involved in such an event; it is actually the third time it has been destroyed. However, this is the first documented instance of a US-supplied tank being destroyed by a Russian tank in direct combat. This makes us wonder; how did the Russian tanks manage to eliminate the US-supplied tank in just one shot?

Yes I know right.. Wait until they hear about the 23 Abrams destroyed in Afghanistan. Nine of which were destroyed by old Soviet era T-62 tanks and RPG rounds. The T-62 has the capability to run APFSDS but mainly us HE or HESH. The Iraqi army had the base model of T-62s with sandbags and other metal sheets bolted to the turret. The Abrams can take and withstand hits from a T-62 all day any day, but the way HE works is that it just explodes and destroys anything in its path. Most of the time only the barrel, tracks, and thermal sights were destroyed by the HE explosion but the tank itself was either destroyed by friendly fire so no tanks could be captured or destroyed by RPG rounds... seven Abrams were purposely destroyed by U.S troops to prevent the capture of their disabled tanks that could easily be repaired in the matter of a few days to a week

Yeah they are making a big deal out of them destroying an abrams using "only" 1 shell, although pretty much ALL tank duels ends with who gets the first round on target. Real life isnt battlefield 2042 where a tank will take multiple hits. For the most part, tank combat can be reduced to tactics, and what tactics one can use deoends on the tanks abilities like speed and manouverability, aswell as how the battlefield looks and other supporting army branches aswell. DefenseTV is very pro-russian, and along with the majority of their fans, heavily biased in russias favor.

The Abrams is technically from the Soviet era too, lol. This is another Russian media lie. All the Abrams taken out so far in the Ukraine have been from drone drops in the open hatch or direct hits from artillery directed by drone.
I was an M1 Abrams crewman back in the early 90s. We trained in tank platoon and company sized units, 4 to 16 tanks, supported with Bradleys and ground troops and air/artillery support. The problem here isn't necessarily the M1 Abrams, but tactics. You don't send in 1 tank to battle. You need a whole team. Sending 1 or 2 tanks out there is suicide. This shows lack of experience with Ukraine military command...

For the same reasons the West and Ukraine is bragging about destroying Russian tanks. It's propaganda issue, and I'm growing to believe nobody takes this conflict seriously. Putin has failed to announce general mobilisation which annuls the strenght of his army and makes use of his tanks according to the doctrine they were designed for, impossible! On the other hand, Ukraine is refusing to conscript men under the age of 27 while in WWII countires would officially conscript men of 18 years of age, and often as young as 16 or even 15 to fight.

During the First Gulf War, which occurred in 1990-1991 after Iraq invaded Kuwait, the Iraqi army was much better equipped and one of the largest armed forces in the world at that time. The military was still operating under the considerable financial and material investment made during the Iran-Iraq War in the 1980s. Here's an overview of the Iraqi military equipment during the First Gulf War: 1. **Tanks**: Approximately 4,500 to 5,500 tanks, which included a large number of Soviet T-55s and T-72s, along with a smaller number of more advanced T-62s and some French-made AMX-30s. 2. **Armored Vehicles**: Around 2,800 to 3,000 armored fighting vehicles, including BMP-1 and BMP-2 models. 3. **Artillery**: More than 3,100 artillery pieces, with a robust array of field artillery, self-propelled guns, and multiple rocket launchers, including heavy systems like the Soviet-made SCUD missile. 4. **Aircraft**: The Iraqi Air Force had roughly 700 aircraft, more diverse and capable than in the Second Gulf War, including advanced fighters like the French Mirage F1 and Soviet MiG-29s. 5. **Air Defense**: A dense network of air defense systems, featuring a mixture of Soviet SAMs (surface-to-air missiles) such as SA-2, SA-3, and SA-6, and more sophisticated systems like the French Roland and Soviet SA-8. 6. **Naval Forces**: Though smaller and less significant, the Iraqi Navy had several missile boats and patrol crafts capable of laying mines and conducting coastal defense operations. Iraq's military during the First Gulf War was well-equipped with large quantities of heavy equipment and a variety of systems, reflecting heavy investments during the 1980s. However, despite this formidable arsenal, the Iraqi military was quickly overwhelmed by the technologically superior and better-trained Coalition forces, leading to a decisive defeat. The effectiveness of the Iraqi military was hampered by outdated tactics, poor strategic planning, and the superior air power and precision-guided munitions of the Coalition.

Now the US has the M829A4, which properties are still classified, but we can assume the performance is far superior than the A1, A2 and A3 variants since the M829A3 was "theoretically" (and I say this because its classified) able to pen 400-700mm of RHA and the US specifically designed its ammunition to have less velocity because the Rod has such a thick diameter therefore more kinetic energy.

These comments are silly. No one has ever said that an M1 Abrams is invulnerable to enemy tank rounds. The video shows drone footage of the knocked-out M1 but does not make clear where the round hit. Of course a Sabot round can disable an M1 if it hits in the correct place. A single M1 crossing open ground is vulnerable to enemy tanks. Anyone with any knowledge of tank warfare already knew this. A force of Abrams being deployed and operated correctly by well trained crewmen is another story. It is not a perfect tank, and no one has ever claimed that it was but it is a very capable tank. These comments need to calm down.

Im from germany; our tank experts never claimed that a leopard solves all problems and its still vulnerable, but if used under the conditions of a war of combined weapons it can exploit advantages; better shelter, faster target acquisition, greater range, user-friendlyness. Tanks are, due to the circumstances, frequently used as a kind of close support position under conditions of trench warfare und uncleared minefields.

Why don't people here in the comments understand that it's not about the destructibility of a tank, but about the probability of survival of the crew. I've never seen an M1 Abrams cooking its crew or trying to send it to the moon. It's harder to replace a well-trained crew than it is to replace a tank. And in almost all videos that show footage of the destruction of Western vehicles, the crew survives. What cannot be said about Russian pressure cookers. In every possible version, I would always choose a Western tank.

Well the Abrams do have a major weak spot on the front it’s the neck of the turret since it’s huge spot like the video said they shot it between the turret and the hull of the tank. You pretty much kill the hole crew in there

as aamerican gen z it's like people think the abrams is invincible when it's not, tanks are actually pretty vulnerable machines in warfare if are not under infantry protection. The media and such potrays that the T 72s or the T80 or T90 would have a hard time penetrating the tanks armor, yes on the front armor, but the weak spots like the turrets neck or the sides or rear are very much able to be penatrated even by a T72s cannon even if it seems outdated it still is a very capable weapon this shows for the first time finally we are seeing abrams actually being destroyed and being knocked out, it doesn't matter how advanced your equipment is what matters is how you use technology against tanks like the t72 against more modern ones.

frontally it can withstand hits yes, but this seemed to be from the fucking side. side shots are death sentences for literally everything. just an edit, i noticed a comment saying its a ABV and looked at the video again, and yeah its a damn recovery vehicle. Those have stripped armor to allow for the extra weight, cutting into both the front and side.

have you considered the Leopard 2 A7?
Try to take on an M1A2 SEP V3. They got these Abrams because we don't really use these ones anymore.
The first one to put effective hits on target usually wins the fight. But I also noticed how the turret is still attached to the hull, and the blowout panels appear to have functioned properly. It’s possible even that some members of the crew could have survived this hit. I’d say that’s markedly better performance than most if not all of the T series tanks I’ve seen.
he US military-industrial complex makes objects ten times more expensive and not more efficient than those of Russians in almost every field. The poverty in the United States is appalling, given the cost to the State of the defence budget. It is a permanent attack on the citizens.

US weapons are very expensive but usually good. Russian stuff is cheap because they don't give a shit about their soldiers. They'd rather have ten cheap tanks than one really good one. Which is often a good strategy. But again, they don't give a shit about how many men and how many tanks they lose.

A US worker earn 10 times more then vasily.....thats the reason 😂😂😂
the point is the following: the Americans will always explain their loss as a lack of extra protection, this reminds me of March 27, 1999, when the Serbian army shot down an invisible F-117A, the Americans' answer was due to a malfunction, which is a notorious lie, as well as the other two that were hit, one landed in Zagreb (Croatia) and the other in Tuzla (Bosnia and Herzegovina)

If the M1 that got destroyed in one shot was just a M1 and not the M1A1 then it's easy to take out with modern rounds. The tank doesen't have the depleted uranium armor that the M1A1 has nor the 120mm. If they had a M1A1 then it'd be a different story, one M1A1 could easily wipe out 5 t-72s without even getting shot.

I remember a US Tank Commander interviewed during the end of the Iraq invasion. Paraphrasing "It was a turkey shoot, if the Iraqi's were in our tanks and we in theirs, we still would have won" A tank is only as good as it's crew. All a Tanks job is, is to protect the crew as much as possible, not be 100% invulnerable. And I'm not an American making excuses, I'm English.

not at all he iraqis had experienced crews in iraq technology played the biggest role the abrams had way better opitics and could spot iraqi tanks over way bigger distances usually the shot at them with the coaxial machineguns to give the iraqis a fighting chance also americans had night vision and the iraqis didnt
I'm surprised there are any T-72s left.
At first I thought the Abram’s tank just got ammo racked and activated the blow out panels but smoke looks like it’s pouring out of the frontal armor too.
The ability to adapt on the battlefield wins battles, not old men that can't climb stairs
Of course an opposing force will always say they took out a superior tank. All tanks are not indestructible. The one thing that counts is who will survive the impact and fight another day.

Yeah they wouldn't make a big deal out of it if it weren't for Americans saying it would eat Russian tanks like in Iraq 😂😂😂😂. For example Russia captured French amx10 rc and destroyed Ceaser artillery also, they destroyed challenger 2 ect... But didn't make a big deal out of it like with Abrams solely because the Russians wanted the Abrams dead.
"suggests that the lack of confidence in the Abrams.". Odd to claim this.. considering how many T-72's have been destroyed and you want to claim that the loss of three M-1's is a complete lack of faith in a weapon system? This is the same type of thinking that the Press of the world is claiming tanks are now obsolete due to the Ukraine war...

A historical lesson:Russia is never so weak that it can be conquered ...)) Brave soldiers of the "United Europe" have already come to us on the best tanks at that time, changing the course of the game, as they would say now: Tigers and Panthers, with black crosses on the sides ...))) With the best aviation in the world-Luftwaffe ...))) If you try to forget about the result of that trip, now in the era of Thermonuclear weapons and hypersound, it can be easily and quickly recalled ...))) So the result, NATO superweapons, "capable of turning the tide of the game": Javelin, Bayraktar, Leopard, Hymers, Abrams, Challenger, Patriot-all this is thrown into the trash ...))All samples of these weapons are already in Kubinka and are being carefully studied by our engineers ...)))) There is still the last most terrible weapon that has not yet been seen in Ukraine and which can really turn the tide of the war-you need to call John Rambo!!)))
