[edit] US Abrams

Is there any project for equipping M1 Abrams with L-55?

I donot think so. The U.S. Army is searching for a new lighter, faster, more lethal. and more crow survival supporting to be it's main fighting vehicle - No, i donot mean "IFV"; I mean a vehicle to replace MBT's and IFV's-. That one is supposed to be equiped with a new Main Armament system that includes 30mm, and 25 mm barrels and amunitions and firing them like a chain gun.

[edit] Picture is incorrect

The first picture on the article page is captioned saying the M-1 firing the Rheinmetall L-44.

The picture appears to be an M-1 firing the M68 105mm gun, the American version of the British L7. The gun and bore evacuator look too thin to be the M256 120 mm and their is no bustle rack on the back of the turret. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.58.239.250 (talk) 19:07, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

In any case, it's not firing its gun, it's firing the hoffmann mounted on top of the gun. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.109.79.96 (talk) 11:36, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] list of Users

Denniss seams to be having a problem with seeing the word "Egypt" in this article. at the beginning the unacceptable excuse was that the list is not for licensed production, ignoring the fact that all countries other than Germany and USA -or even Germany only- are license-producing the Gun. after failing to reach an end with him about that, the L-44 list was divided so that it separates the two groups of producers; But amazingly he've simply undid with no discussion -and excuses-. So Denniss would you please discuss changing that before doing it again ?!
