But.....these are "export" versions. Try not to bring a reverse engineered Iranian M1 in front of a real M1 from the US Army, your turret may go missing within a few seconds of coming in contact.

Those Abrams tanks are downgraded version. I can bet, it will be worst than our Type-96 tank.

USA sold Low Armor and Degraded Abram tanks to Iraq and Saudi Arabia also Egypt is not give whole technology as USA Present day Abram tanks are generation ahead the tanks they sell and export to Arab countries except if it is Israel or any EU Western country then it is another Ball game

Again downgraded nonsense. "Downgraded" Abrams is way better than anything Iran can produce in observable future.

Much better than merkava i'd say . what a joke those are .

Hezbollah trashed a huge number of them in 2006 war with simple 1990s Iranian ATGMs in which only some imbecile israeli can ignore .

Two Merkavas were destroyed by ATGM in that war (Russian Kornets and US TOWs).

In Ukraine and Syria more T-72s are destroyed a month than Israel lost Merkavas in 30 years.

You can't compare tanks just by how many losses occured. You are leaving out important aspects like crew training and combined arms environment.
In videos i have seen, Syrian T-72s are often seen without support, roaming around alone without infantry support or artillery cover. The crew has poor training. There is no combined arms environment.
Merkava crew has more training. They operate in an environment with air cover and combined arms.

what's there to reverse engineer?

they should just buy some Al-Khalid tanks

Never, the name 'Khalid' is horror for Iran

Never. The name 'Khalid' is horror for Iran

If i recall correctly, Khalid BW didn't really take part in military campaigns in Persia, they were mostly conducted by Saad Bin Waqas.

Khalid initially started the campaign, though latter removed from command but stayed key advisor to Saad bin Abi Waqas and Abu Obaida ibn Aljarah
