Next-Gen M1 Abrams Tank's Active Protection System, Autoloader Development Off To Delayed Start

The Army's vision for a substantially redesigned next-generation iteration of the M1 Abrams tank is slowly taking shape.

I'm not sure what the US has been doing in regard to developing our own active protection systems over the past decade+ (after Quick Kill was cancelled), but so far it doesn't look we have much to show for it. Both APS and autloaders are very important but that shouldn't be news to anyone with some interest in the subject. The fact that yet another delay has been added in a project that has moved at glacial pace has me wondering yet again if anyone in the DoD knows what they're doing.
 
The new Boxer w an ability to in/direct fire 'on the move ' a 155mm as some sort of wheeled tank/ SPH makes long term decisions a bit more difficult. An APS w the quality Future Combat System (FCS) projected could certainly see a wheeled/tracked new "Decisive Lethality" vehicle like Darpa GXV was proposing. As usual $ and genuine analysis of the current battlefield would be required. Mud and mines are their own divinities. 1730426298788.png
