“Originally referred to as a light tank, Army officials named the new
concept the Mobile Protected Firepower (MPF); this approach was intended to
dissuade service members from viewing it as a tank-like vehicle and then
employing it the same way as the M1 Abrams Main Battle Tank (MBT),” Army Lt.
Col. Ben Ferguson and Capt. Lennard Salcedo wrote.
While the MPF certainly looks a lot like a tank, it is not meant to have all
the same missions as an M1 Abrams battle tank. Armored formations can be used
as battering rams to smash through enemy lines. Most importantly, main battle
tanks can destroy enemy armor.
MPF is designed to provide direct fire to engage with/destroy the types of
pediments typically faced by infantry, such as bunkers. As Army Leaders
stated this week, the name given to MPF best describes what it is: it is a
mobile platform that provides protected firepower to the infantry.
陆军：因为怕有笨蛋把它当成M1战车拿去打敌人的装甲部队
它只是拿来提供步兵直射火力 打打掩体之类的(突击炮的概念?
However, China’s People Liberation Army has a lot of tanks in its arsenal,
according to the Defense Department’s latest report on Chinese military
power Although up to 40% of its main battle tanks are between 20 and 40 years
old, it still has 6,300 tanks overall.
中共解放军约有6300辆战车 但其中40%(约2500辆)是20-40年老车
(相比台湾却将近有1000辆战车 我国战车还真的很多
