M60A2: The Starship of the United States

As the M60 was coming into service, development started to create an ATGM armament for the tank to put it into service by 1965, which would lead to the 152mm gun/launcher system being mounted on a uniquely designed turret (Type B) on top of the M60 hull; however, the US Army's dream of a simple transition into the weapon system was trashed when complications with the system arose, especially in regards to the sensitive ammunition. While a limited production run was allowed with the tank designated as the M60A2, continued trouble with the tank led to the M60A2's phasing out, with only 526 units produced.

M60A3 TTS: Iron Sentinel

The M60A3 TTS (Tank Thermal Sight) is the final evolution of the legendary M60 Patton series. Equipped with advanced optics, improved firepower, and enhanced survivability features, the M60A3 TTS remains a formidable force on the battlefield. While it may lack the speed and cutting-edge technology of modern MBTs, its robust armor and powerful 105mm cannon ensure it can still hold the line against contemporary threats.
