Pentagon notes T72 features and U S tank progress
Two years earlier, about 1,000 T72 tanks had been produced. Pentagon officials say the T72 can shoot on the move, uses a laser rangefinder for the 115mm gun, has a higher powered engine than the T62, and better protection. The 40-ton T72 reportedly has an automatic loader, allowing crews of three. Its interior aims to resist ignition in a penetrating hit. Only about 10 percent of the U S Army’s tanks can fire in motion, while the XM1 development promises tougher armor and added innovations.
