Support us on Patreon:   / periscopefilm   Produced by the Aberdeen Proving Ground's Tank Automotive Command, Quality Assurance Directorate, this U.S. Army film was made to familiarize contractors, and also the public, about the process of quality assurance testing and how it is critical to every vehicle the military purchases. The film provides a fascinating look at some of the tests that armored vehicles would be put through to confirm fulfillment of their roles, including driving and amphibious operation, weapons tests, and more. No copyright but this is circa the mid-1960s. Opening: Contractors walk into a building. Inside a factory, men walk by M60 tanks. Maint Title: Quality Assurance Testing (:07-1:03).

Although developed from the M48 Patton, the M60 tank series was never officially classified but sometimes informally grouped, as a member of the Patton tank family. The design similarities can be noted in the original variant of the M60 and the M48A2. The US Army considered it as a "product-improved descendant" of the Patton tank's design. The United States fully committed to the MBT doctrine in 1963 when the Marine Corps retired the last (M103) heavy tank battalion. The M60 tank series became America's primary main battle tank during the Cold War. Over 15,000 M60s were built by Chrysler. Hull production ended in 1983, but 5,400 older models were converted to the M60A3 variant ending in 1990. The United States' largest deployment of M60s was in the 1991 Gulf War, where the US Marines equipped with M60A1s effectively defeated Iraqi armored forces, including T-72M tanks. The United States readily retired the M60 after Operation Desert Storm, with the last units being retired from active service in 1997.
