AbramsX is a new technology manufactured by General Dynamics Land Systems or GLDS. It is designed as a concept for the latest generation of main battle tank rather than the evolution of the Abrams tank series. This tank was first revealed on October 10-12 2022 during the AUSA exhibition, which took place in Washington D.C. The AbramsX represents a new generation of MBT with increased firepower, protection, and mobility to withstand all new threat of modern combat zone.
Now, let’s take a look at the design and features of this AbramsX.
As reported from General Dynamics’ news announcement, the AbramsX has a smaller crew size compared to the previous variant. The traditional Abrams consists of a commander, gunner, loader, and driver, while AbramsX features three crew hatches at the front of the vehicle. This implies that the AbramsX’s turret, which has been rebuilt and seems to have a reduced profile, is completely uncrewed and instead uses automatic load. As a result, the AbramsX is the first to use an automated loader in the Abrams family. The new crew layout also allows all three crew members to sit side by side, working and battling together, rather than at separate stations, with the panoramic sights for the gunner and commander provided.
