M1 Abrams: The Battlefield Titan with Jet Engine Power
Story by Emily Davis • 22h

The four decades of American military might the M1 Abrams tank embodies are still unrivaled in battle with its unmatched speed and power. Weighing around 68 tons, the Abrams can go as fast as 45 mph feat possible only through the Honeywell AGT1500 gas turbine engine which is a jet engine to propel this armored behemoth.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

If it isn't eco-friendly, the military shouldn't even use it.  The exhaust fumes could kill people! :whistle:
