Reference News, July 20 report - According to TASS, on July 18, the Ukrainian armed forces have lost 27 "Abrams" main battle tanks provided by the United States, and only 4 remain in service.

According to the U.S. magazine "The National Interest", although the "Abrams" tank is considered one of the most advanced and reliable armored vehicles today, it has encountered difficulties on the battlefield in Ukraine.

The magazine wrote: "Ukraine lacks air and artillery support, a shortage of technical and mechanical professionals, and insufficient personnel and equipment, which have led to the 'Abrams' tanks being inefficient on the front lines."

Previously, Russia's State Technology Corporation told TASS that the Pentagon plans to draw on Russian experience and research results to modify the armor of the "Abrams" main battle tanks. Due to the poor performance of these tanks in the special military operation area, the U.S. Department of Defense intends to enhance their protective capabilities. (Translated by He Yingjun)
