11XHooah Posted June 24, 2005 Author Posted June 24, 2005 You know what, I think we can have vehicles in here as well. Just talk about the weapons on board it like Hildegard did. Here is the M1A2 Abrams: The main armament is the 120mm M256 smoothbore gun. The 120mm gun fires the M8300 HEAT-MP-T and the M829 APFSDS-T which includes a depleted uranium penetrator.
