best modern mbt?

I agree with Glenn,I was watching a program on this subject some weeks back.A tank commander was asked the same question,He said,that he could take a T-72 and destory an Abram with on problem.This commander command an Abram an as he keeped talking his words was,That the T-72 was a fine tank and that his crew could have just as much suceess in a T-72 as well in a Abram.It is the tech that makes it easy for the crew but the crew with or with out the tech has to do the same thing in operating a tank,hi tech or low tech.I think the man is right.Digger

Just a civilian here! Maybe the best tank in the world is the one that has the best crew?
Are the technologies of the Abrams, Challenger and Leopard so slight that the difference in a firefight is the people inside these three tanks operating at their peak efficiency? I leave this to those of you out there online with real world experience! What do you think?

It seems to be a toss-up of three tanks.The U.S. M1A2 Abrams,the German Leopard 2,and the British Challenger 2.I'm no expert,but the Chobham armor on the Abrams was developed by the Brits.I assume the Challenger has it as well.The main gun on the Abrams is built by Rheinmettal in Germany.I'd bet the Leopard has something similar.It's a hotly debated topic.Maybe someone here could shed a little more light on the subject.
