Looks more like a Abrahams tank, but Challenger 2 do look similar. Though i would hope its not ours the Challenger 2 is a awesome tank and probably the best in the world.

2nd, 3rd and 4th look like American tanks to me (M1A1s or whatever they are called...)

Is it IED's that are taking the tanks out ?

MarcLister · 6 Sep 2007 at 22:24

Improvised Explosive Devices? Yes I think so.

Or more recently, Iranian Explosive Devices? :mad:

Its just I didn’t think it could get through the Chobham armor of the tank.

Edit: i see they use a slightly different form of Chobham armor from us

Image 2, 4 & 5 is the Abram tank, 3rd image is a Bradley IFV, all American but I don't know what the first image is. (Anyone?)

IED's can take tanks, a long with RPG's.

Normally they wouldn't. These are most probably Iranian EFP's (Explosively Formed Penetrators) which are absolutely deadly against armoured vehicles, even the Abrams and Challenger II!

The US and UK have suspected Iranian involvement in attacks on our troops in Iraq for some time now. :mad:

Not exactly someone a discontented Iraqi comes up with.
