中新网华盛顿8月19日电 美国环球战略网近日撰文称，美国陆军目前已经为老式M1主战坦克推出了新升级版本。新升级版的M1主战坦克被命名为M1A3主战坦克。
美军装备的M1主战坦克的优良性能在伊拉克战争中为世人留下了深刻印象，M1主战坦克的优良性能也极大的提高了美军装甲兵的战斗力。
由于在伊拉克战争中的出众表现，美军已经打消了让M1主战坦克退役的计划。原本美军准备设计出一种全新概念的坦克。这种新型坦克被称为未来战斗系统(FCS)，美国陆军打算用未来战斗系统(FCS)来取代M1主战坦克。但是因为与M1主战坦克相比，所提出的全新概念的未来战斗系统没有一点能够超越M1主战坦克。因此，最终美国陆军决定取消研发未来战斗系统，而转为在M1主战坦克的基础上推出升级版的M1A3新型主战坦克。
美国陆军M1A3新型主战坦克与老式的M1和M-1A2主战坦克相比，在性能方面获得了相当大的提高。在重量上，M1A3新型主战坦克比重62吨的M-1A2主战坦克要轻数吨。这利益于M1A3新型主战坦克采用了重量更轻的120毫米新型坦克炮、新型光纤和重量更轻的新型防护装甲。M1A3新型主战坦克采用的新型坦克炮还可以安装炮弹自动装填机。此外，新的发动机和行走机构也都大幅降低了M1A3新型主战坦克的重量。据悉，M1A3新型主战坦克的重量为55吨，或者更轻。
对于M1A3新型主战坦克来说，最重要的一点是坦克的火力系统得到了全面提升。M1A3新型主战坦克安装了新型计算机、通讯系统、传感器以及新型导航设备。而原本这些火力系统是装备安装在未来战斗系统(FCS)上的。同时，已经流产的未来战斗系统(FCS)原本还将装备其它新型武器系统，以及射程为12公里的炮射导弹。不过，目前这些新型武器系统都被安装在了M1A3新型主战坦克上。
在推出了M1A3新型主战坦克后，美国陆军并没有选择开工生产这种新型坦克，而是选择在现有的M1主战坦克上进行升级。在上世纪八十年代至九十年代，美国共生产出了约9000辆M1主战坦克，其中，外国军队装备了近1500辆M1主战坦克。目前，美国陆军和海军陆战队仅用了其中的1600辆，所以美国陆军有足够多的库存老式M1主战坦克可以被用来升级成M1A3新型主战坦克。
此外，美国环球战略网在文中指出，在美国陆军装备M1A3新型主战坦克后，M1A3新型主战坦克将会在美国陆军中服役至少40年，甚至可能是更长的时间。(钟岩)

美国人就象以色列人一样精明，会精打细算过日子。
以及射程为12公里的炮射导弹.

老式的怎么照帖子了改？新炮新发动机新行走机构就算了，老M1真的是那么彻底的模块化装甲么？能成吨成吨减重的新型装甲说换就换？不太容易吧，印象中装甲这东西修修补补，添些附加的容易，模块化也只是替换受损部分，彻底更新主装甲的事……第一次听说，而且我孤陋寡闻还真不知道M1有没有模块化装甲的设计
缝缝补补罢了，M1的燃气轮机发动机都已经停产蛮久，只能靠修补旧机过日子，维持M1部队的规模，成本可不低啊

大概是globalsecurity.org
55吨~~~米国人技术那么高了啊~~~那么大坦克才55吨防护还要比A2好~~~
豹2都A6了，现在M1才A2。。也该改改了
终于有官方消息了:D
现在美军面对的威胁是火箭筒了,重量轻点没啥,关键是薄弱的位置要加强,主装甲薄些问题不大
:Q RPG前都是渣
又是假消息，m1a3根本不存在，fcs取消更是胡扯八道
搜了一下中文，果然只在新闻网站上看到；稍微专业点的军工国防网站都还没有报道，英文好的DX可以去官网和权威的军网查证一下.......

根据本论坛对于99坦克比较有研究的大家的理论，防护水平是与重量成反比的。君不见世界上防护最佳的坦克，我们的99只有52吨，老美的新坦克才55。防护水平还要向99看齐才成。
这篇中文报导基本上是胡说八道外加缺乏常识的加油添醋画蛇添足。
美国陆军的确提了个M1A3，但还没送五角大厦批准，里面提到的新科技也是多年来M1车系的改良构想。取消FCS更是彻底的bullshit，一套崭新的系统本来就不可能一夕取代旧有的东西（和况FCS牵涉到作战理念的翻新），现有的M1当然还要服役数十年才能完全交棒，因此进一步的改良势在必行。

Army looks to update Abrams line
By Kris Osborn - kosborn@militarytimes.com
Posted : August 20, 2007
The Army is reversing earlier plans to retire M1A2 Abrams tanks and now plans to upgrade the 70-ton battlefield behemoths, making them more lethal, better protected, more networked — and able to serve through 2050.
In 1998, the Army had all but written off the tank, which cannot go over most bridges and is too heavy to deploy quickly and expediently by air.
“We were going to stop producing Abrams in 2005. The line was supposed to go cold,” an official with the Army’s Training and Doctrine Command said.
But the Abrams’ thick skin proved valuable during the Iraq insurgency, fending off enemy rounds, rocket-propelled grenades and roadside bombs that crippled lighter vehicles. To prepare the tank for its next decades, the Army is planning improvements.
“If you are going to keep it, the status quo won’t do,” said Rickey Smith, who directs the Capabilities Integration Center Forward at TraDoc.
Early versions of an “M1A3” capabilities development document have traveled from the Armor Center at Fort Knox, Ky., to TraDoc at Fort Monroe, Va., and will soon go to the Pentagon. At this point, the ideas in the document are considered preliminary and not yet official.
The Army intends its 60-tank Heavy Brigade Combat Teams to work with the Future Brigade Combat Teams that will come on line in 2015, as Future Combat Systems vehicles arrive.
“We will have to be compatible with FCS. When FCS comes in, we are going to have a fleet of Abrams, Bradleys and FCS armored vehicles. The critical thing is to get a communications package so they can talk to each other,” said Pete McVey, vice president of Abrams and derivative programs, General Dynamics Land Systems.
Preliminary work is underway on a more-networked Abrams.
“We are working on an integrated computer system. Whatever you do, there is a requirement for integrated engineering,” the effort to build digitized and networked vehicles, Smith said.
Workers in Warren, Mich., are equipping several tanks for tests, giving them B-kits containing FCS-compatible software, computers and communications gear.
The capabilities description document calls for:
• Lower logistical costs.
• Potentially replacing the M256 smoothbore cannon with the lightweight 120mm cannon being tested for FCS. This could allow an autoloader to lift the burden of the tank’s four-man crew.
• Improved propulsion system, road wheels and suspension.
• A track that can go 5,000 miles between replacements. FCS officials are testing new track ideas at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Md., including band tracks composed entirely or partly of rubbery material.
• Lighter armor and other components to reduce the tank’s weight, making it more mobile with an improved suspension.
For example, a look at the cabling in the tank shows that if fiber-optic cable was used, 1 1/2 tons can be taken off the weight, McVey said.
• Precision munitions that can hit targets 12 kilometers away. Picatinny Arsenal in New Jersey, which aims to field its Mid-Range-Munition precision round by 2012, is testing two candidates: ATK’s millimeter-wave, kinetic energy round and Raytheon’s round with an infrared camera and laser detector.
