Vážení, v středu 25.09.2019 bylo oznámeno, že Čínská republika (Tchaj-wan) uzavřela dohodu s vládou USA o dodávce 108 tanků M1A2 SEPv2 upravených dle požadavků tchajwanského ministerstva obrany. Objednané tanky byly označeny jako M1A2T a jejich dodávky jsou rozloženy na pět let: 18 strojů (2022), 18 (2023), 28 (2024), 30 (2025) a 14 (2026). Yang Hai-ming, náčelník generálního štábu ROCA (Republic of China Army) tvrdí, že M1A2T je bojeschopnější než jihokorejský K2 Black Panther, nebo japonský tank typu 10, či čínský MBT typ 99. Objednané tanky obdrží 6. armádní sbor ROCA, který zajišťuje obranu severní části ostrova. Poznámka: U avizovaných, ale blíže neurčených úprav předpokládám, že budou zohledněny fysické schopnosti čínských tankistů.

Gentlemen, Although the government of the PRC announced on July 15, 2019 sanctions on all North American companies involved in supplying weapons to the ROC. How the sanctions are actually proceeding is unknown as the PRC Foreign Ministry declined to provide details. All indications are that this threat has not worked. A group of North American experts arrived in Taiwan on 18 February 2020 to inspect the passability of local roads and bridges. They also surveyed the potential of local industry. The M1A2T vehicles will be equipped with a remote-controlled weapon station with an M2 machine gun, and the armor will be reinforced with tungsten and ceramic plates. Also under discussion is whether the Taiwanese tanks will be equipped with the Active Defence Trophy and whether the gas turbine will be replaced with a multi-fuel power unit. GDLS was awarded a contract worth $16,582,968 to modify M1A2 SEPv2 tanks to the M1A2T version on 22 February 2021. According to the U.S. Department of Defense website, the test vehicles will be two tanks converted from the M1A2S and M1A2K versions. Work on the vehicle modifications will be performed by the GDLS office in Sterling Heights, Michigan, with a completion date of June 30, 2022. Construction of a tank crew training facility began at Chang'an Base in Hsinchu on 5 September 2021. Also, the firing range at Kengzik in Xinfeng will be modified for live firing of M1A2T tanks. The construction work is expected to be completed in 2022. The training centre will be equipped with Taiwanese simulators supplied by the National Chung-Shan Institute of Science and Technology (NCSIST) in Taoyuan, north-western Taiwan.
