    Have there been any combat losses of the m1a1 to drones in Ukraine?

      A few, they actually pulled them from the front reportedly but i guess now they’re back with added protection

        Even in Iraq and Afghanistan it was commonplace to have the m1’s equipped with the anti-rpg cages. Can’t imagine why they would take them off. I’d think they would offer some protection and a good frame for a closer knit if needed.

            Sounds credible, I suppose, but what’s a few hundred pounds when shipping a multi-ton box of rolling armor and pew-pew?

              @Railing5132 Perhaps if you are trying to move said M 1 by air or train and paying the freight by the tonnage to said fuel? I bet you’d be looking for ways to reduce weight.
