46. I not so sure I'd agree there
"ZERO chance" generally illicits a skeptical response from me in any situation, since even Iraqi resistance fighters armed with RPGs have been able to knock out M1s when they shoot at the rear.

IMHO, the T-82s and later stack up roughly equivalent to the M1. In the hands of well-trained crewmen, I have no doubt in my mind that we'd be looking at a battle where both sides would inflict heavy losses. Granted, I don't think anyone has seen an engagement between M1s and T-90s, but I'm not so confidant to believe it'd be a complete blowout.
