MY LIST OF TOP TEN TANKS(theoretically, I think its pretty much right):
10.Type 59
9.T-90
8.Type 90
7.Arjun
6.C1 Ariete
5.Leopard 2A6
4.M-95 Degman
3.Merkava Mark IV
2.M1A2 Abrams
1.Challenger II
I think the M-1 and Loe2 are the best of the bunch and your splitting hairs as to which is better. A Tanker who was in joint exercise said it best. One was better in some areas while the other was better in others, both excellent tanks.
Real statement here is that both are more then a match for any Russian made tank they may encounter on the battle field.
Very nice.
To see what an M1A1 Abrams can do to your kitchen check it out here...

You guys are seriously squabbling about which tank is the best!?I'm a lieutenant of the army and a Leopard 2 platoon leader. I have seen single platoons take out companies in combat exercices, ergo tactics make all the difference...Who gives a shit if you've got a gas turbine or a diesel!?only really good leadership and skills can bring out the full potential in a tank. 100 M1 will do no good against 10 Leos if your superiors are tactical morons (and vice versa).

You may be a platoon leader but other than the Leo 2 seeing action in Afghanistan, it really hasn't proved itself against other tanks or in an urban environment unless it goes to Iraq. Still in Desert Storm, the Abrams crews spent 5 months in the Desert training then proceeded to wipe away Iraqi tanks. Still the Abrams and the Challenger II have proven themselves in an actual tank on tank battle and in a urban environment. The Leo II is great on paper no doubt about it, but continue.

They got excellent electronics, excellent protection, but what will happen when it gets hit in the ammo compartment. We know the Abrams have blow panels and a blast door to keep the crew safe. Tactics and leadership help destroy the enemy but what will happen when a tank like the Leo II gets hit in its weak spot how well will the tank protect the crew if the automatic fire extinguisher in the Leo II isn't enough.

We did not pull out of Korea. Our mission was to save S. Korea from an invasion and we did that successfuly. Anyway, we still have troops there.
