Back to the Basics

"The M1 Abrams main battle tank is without parallel in the modern world, it rumbles through the battlefield like the corporeal embodiment of the titans of lore. The Apache attack helicopter is the aerial twin of the M1, an armored dragonfly that can pounce on unsuspecting targets with utterly ruthless efficiency. But if tomorrow through some twist of fate, all of our thirsty engines seized up... then the armor branch and the aviation branch would cease to exist as an effective combat force.
