После недавней беседы по численности советского танкового парка решил разобраться что и к чему, потому взял справочник Ленского, потратил немного времени и во что получилось:
General Donn Albert Starry Commanding General, United States Army Training and Doctrine Command (CG TRADOC) from 1977 to 1981
Один из основных разработчиков американской военной доктрины в конце 70-х - начале 80-х
его слова: "As that work began, seven thousand miles away the Arabs attacked Israel in October 1973. Within a few weeks General Abrams dispatched me and Brig. Gen. Bob Baer-the program manager of what would later become the Abrams tank-to Israel. There, Bob and I walked battlefields with the IDF Commanders who had fought on them, seeking answers to many questions about the future U.S. Army. The questions we posed focused on documenting requirements for the Ml tank, especially the need for a larger caliber gun than the planned 105mm, and, most importantly, on critical operational lessons of the Yom Kippur War. Answers to those questions framed the beginning of what grew into, some nine years later, the doctrine called AirLand Battle, a concept of war at the tactical and operational levels that U.S. and coalition commanders employed in Operation Desert Storm. The armored battlefields of the Yom Kippur War yielded striking lessons about what to expect in first and succeeding battles of the next war.
