The #M60Patton is an American second-generation #mainbattletank that entered service in the early 1960s. Designed as a successor to the M48, the M60 family combined a powerful 105 mm main gun with improved armor, mobility, and fire-control upgrades across several variants. It served as the U.S. Army and Marine Corps’ primary battle tank through the Cold War and was widely exported — many nations kept upgraded M60s in service long after the U.S. transitioned to the M1 Abrams.
