M2 Bradleys transferred from the US to the Commonwealth (add tan & black paint).
Of course refurbished engine, upgrade electronics (sound good, doesn’t it?).

A small drone was flying over a formation in the Gator State. Sent back this image just moments before all communication with the drone was lost. Speculation it’s was a laser that took the drone down. Trying to determine weapons and capability of this tank. Looks like a 130-140-152 mm gun. Might be the MBT-20 project we have heard about.

Chris, your tank ID is pretty rough. Better brush up a bit.

Col. Markinson said to the team of evaluators, “you evaluators better get on this to determine what this vehicle, the dang tank, is called. The GS knows it was our drone, says we’ve misidentified it, which can be expected. Then NC said it’s a ‘MBT-70’. Let’s go people, if it’s a MBT-20, fine. Get to work.”
.
Sgt Lowe responds, “why don’t we call GS ask them what they call that tank, sir.?”

There have been improvements to the 1974design. We will not discuss them or the tanks designation. We are making more.
