The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a premium gift rank {{Specs|rank}} American medium tank {{Battle-rating}}. It was introduced in [[Update "Air Superiority"]].
+
One of the primary M1A1 variants used by the USMC (US Marine Corps) was the HC, or Heavy Common variant. The biggest upgrade this variant has is the AN/VLQ-8A Softkill APS system mounted on the roof, which no other mainline Abrams variants get. One such example of the M1A1HC is the real tank named "Click-Bait". The tank was made somewhat notorious in online circles after an image of the tank with a plastic lawn chair surfaced on the internet during one of its combat deployments.
 +
 
 +
The '''{{Specs|name}}''' was introduced in [[Update "Air Superiority"]]. Besides the chair on the roof, the Click-Bait is differentiated from the normal tech tree [[M1A1 HC|M1A1HC]] with the kill marks on its gun, which accurately title some of the vehicles it has destroyed in combat. The M1A1HC seats itself as the chairman of the top tier premium tank selection for the US tree. Players playing the Click-Bait should take a seat (preferably not in the chair on top of the tank) as they use their mobility to move to advantageous spots in combat and their great reload rate to quickly finish off opponents who did not succumb to the first shot.

M1A1 «Click-Bait» — это наземное транспортное средство, обладающее высокой мобильностью. Удельная мощность данного танка составляет приблизительно 25,7 л.с./т, что обеспечивает ему отличную маневренность и позволяет быстро менять направление движения. Максимальная скорость движения M1A1 вперед составляет 67 км/ч, а назад — 15 км/ч. Такие показатели позволяют танку быстро перемещаться по полю боя и занимать выгодные позиции.

M1A1 “Click-Bait” оснащен 120-мм гладкоствольной пушкой M256, которая является одной из самых мощных и эффективных орудий в своем классе. Скорость перезарядки пушки составляет около 12 секунд, что позволяет вести интенсивный огонь по противнику. Баллистика пушки обеспечивает высокую точность стрельбы на больших дистанциях. Мощность снарядов позволяет пробивать броню большинства современных танков.

Пушка имеет возможность быстрого наведения на цель, что позволяет эффективно вести огонь по нескольким целям одновременно. Для перезарядки пушки используются стандартные боеприпасы калибра 120 мм. В хранилище боеприпасов танка помещается до 40 снарядов, что достаточно для проведения длительной боевой операции.
 
  
−
Для эффективного использования боеприпасов рекомендуется выбирать снаряды в зависимости от типа цели и дистанции до нее. Например, для поражения бронированных целей следует использовать бронебойные снаряды, а для уничтожения легкобронированной техники - осколочно-фугасные снаряды. Заполнение хранилища боеприпасов осуществляется через специальные люки, расположенные на корпусе танка.

Description

One of the primary M1A1 variants used by the USMC (US Marine Corps) was the HC, or Heavy Common variant. The biggest upgrade this variant has is the AN/VLQ-8A Softkill APS system mounted on the roof, which no other mainline Abrams variants get. One such example of the M1A1HC is the real tank named "Click-Bait". The tank was made somewhat notorious in online circles after an image of the tank with a plastic lawn chair surfaced on the internet during one of its combat deployments.

The Tank, Combat, Full Tracked, 120-mm Gun M1A1 HC "Click-Bait" was introduced in Update "Air Superiority". Besides the chair on the roof, the Click-Bait is differentiated from the normal tech tree M1A1HC with the kill marks on its gun, which accurately title some of the vehicles it has destroyed in combat. The M1A1HC seats itself as the chairman of the top tier premium tank selection for the US tree. Players playing the Click-Bait should take a seat (preferably not in the chair on top of the tank) as they use their mobility to move to advantageous spots in combat and their great reload rate to quickly finish off opponents who did not succumb to the first shot.

Usage in battles

Describe the tactics of playing in the vehicle, the features of using vehicles in the team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view but instead give the reader food for thought. Describe the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Powerful and versatile ammunition selection between kinetic sabots, HEATFS, and a proximity-fused round
  • Has an active protection system that can provide some protection against older ATGMs
  • Has better turret protection than older versions of the Abrams

Cons:

  • Has a big weak spot under the cannon breech and also the turret ring
  • No commander's sight
  • The softkill active protection system is visible through night vision devices
  • The antennas are tall can can easily be spotted by an enemy

History

Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the vehicle in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).
