## [General information](/md/rv/vehicles/m1a2-sep.md#general-information)

Description
: The **M1A2 SEP** is a Main Battle Tank and an upgraded variant of the [M1 Abrams](/md/rv/vehicles/m1-abrams.md), introducing the System Enhancement Package with improved digital architecture, commander’s independent thermal viewer, and better situational awareness. The M1A2 entered U.S. service in the 1990s and the SEP upgrades have kept the platform relevant into the 21st century. Operated by a crew of four on a tracked chassis weighing 62.2 tonnes, it is powered by a **Honeywell AGT1500** gas turbine rated at 1,519 horsepower for a 24.4 hp/t power-to-weight ratio and 68 km/h top speed.
The stabilized **120mm M256** is the main gun, with a laser rangefinder, fire control system with lead, and Gen 2 thermals; a coaxial **7.62mm M240** and a commander **12.7mm M2** in a remote station with FCS and tracking provide secondary firepower, and the loader has a **7.62mm M240**. Smoke grenades and an engine smoke system are standard; optional TUSK II adds urban combat kit such as slat armour and crew protection.
This vehicle features three addons: **.50 Coaxial**, **TUSK II** and **Mine Plow**. The .50 Coaxial addon costs 250 points and equips the gunner with an additional 12.7mm M2, enhancing anti-infantry capabilities and foliage clearing. The TUSK II addon costs 500 points and adds double-stacked ERA to the hull sides and a single layer to the turret sides, providing protection against tandem-charge munitions. The Mine Plow addon costs 150 points and deploys a clearing blade only when the vehicle is in first gear.
