London, United Kingdom, February 24, 2020 --(PR.com)-- The US Army is in the process of upgrading its Abram tank division to the superior M1A2 SEP4 variant, providing greater lethality, speed, better protection and upgraded weapons. One of the key features of the upgrade is the introduction of the advanced Multi-Purpose 120mm ammunition round, which apparently will replace four current shell blast capacity into one, utilising an ammunition data link and variable fuse adjustments.
