Summary:

Concerns have been raised in Congress about the absence of a procurement program to modernize the M1 tank fleet beyond the current upgrade of existing tanks and to counter new tank threats. This report discusses whether the (1) current readiness level of the M1 tank is adequate to meet its war-fighting requirements, (2) operating condition of the tanks at the National Training Center is adequate to meet training requirements, and (3) change in repair parts funding harmed unit maintenance. GAO also reports on the status of the Army's proposed M1 tank overhaul program.
