احد السلبيات في الابرمز تقريبا هو المحرك التوربيني للاسف
تفضل و اذا طلبتم سوف أترجم النقاط المهمة لاحقا لأنني لا املك الوقت الان
Pros:
Fuel tankers don't need to carry diesel engine specifically for the Abrams
Can siphon fuel off of most damaged/disabled Army and Air Force vehicles without contaminating its fuel supply
Unmatched top speed and acceleration
Very good for the Cold War scenario of a war most likely in Germany
JP-8 does not wax over in cold weather
Lighter and smaller than a diesel engine
More room for fuel and ammo
Cons
~1,000°F (535°C) engine exhaust
Massive IR signature, allowing for detection and tracking at much longer ranges via infrared sensors
Requires a lot of cooling to prevent a heat buildup
JP-8's auto-ignition point is roughly 248°F (~120°C), meaning that any failure with the cooling units or engine heat shield could easily result in an engine fire
Infantry cannot operate close to the tank, disrupting old tank-infantry operations and complicating transport
Very bad for operations in urban environments where the infantry otherwise would be near the tank to reduce its vulnerability to point-blank attacks
Gets 3 gallons per mile (~7 liters per kilometer) off road at half-load
Requires a larger gas tank, negating the small engine bonus
Performance with diesel not much better, as the engine is not optimized for diesel
Range (not combat radius) of ~120 miles (~190km) off-road at full load and ~250 miles (~402 km) in optimal conditions with a full load
Tanks need to wait for tankers to catch up, negating the top speed and acceleration bonuses
Downtime allowed a portion of the Iraqi Republican Guard to retreat during the First Persian Gulf War
Smokers, which create a smokescreen to obscure the tank's visual and IR signatures, removed to prevent engine flameout due to the heat they generate and the low auto-ignition temperature of JP-8
Smoke grenades used instead, but at a lowered effect and amount
Very expensive to maintain
~25% of the US Army's maintenance budget goes towards the AGT 1500's. Another 25% goes towards the rest of the tank
Unclear how much of the maintenance cost of the rest of the tank is due to exhaust heat
Engine not optimized for any fuel, resulting in a lower efficiency when compared to other engines
