(Interesting Engineering) Along with a batch of M1 Abrams main battle tanks (MBTs) sent to Ukraine back in September, the embattled nation has also, by all accounts, received a handful of M1 Abrams-derived M1150 Assault Breacher Vehicle (ABV). Largely now mothballed by the United States, the M1150 could prove pivotal for the Ukrainian Army in clearing dense Russian minefields. The ABV was first seen during a ceremony commemorating Ukraine's "Day of Rocket Forces and Artillery and Engineering Troops Day."
