Here's an interesting video on the Battle of 73 Eastings, which apparently lasted 23 minutes and ended with the complete destruction of the elite Iraqi armored units.

Fascinating, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_73_EastingKnew some of this from media reports back in the day, but not in such detail. Reminds me of the term, "the fog of battle". I remember reading a comment that the most interested observers were our peace loving Chinese and Russian brothers as the battle played out. Very impressed they were. SJ

Everyone was watching ... and learning.
Now, thermal imaging is used on all major tanks.
