Original Note:
M1 Abrams are by no means "non-burnable tanks". Many of them have been put out of action or destroyed in the past. https://www.reddit.com/r/DestroyedTanks/s/VstYUhsGTJ here is a list of 23 between 2003-2011, with context behind it (and images). Furthermore, Saudi Arabia had to replace 20 during their intervention in Yemen. https://www.defenseone.com/business/2016/08/us-tank-deal-exposes-saudi-losses-yemen-war/130623/
