The US is set to deliver 31 M1 Abrams tanks to Ukraine, joining Germany and the UK in sending tanks to support Ukraine as it continues its fight against Russia.

US Army (retired) Colonel Michael Linick, a senior defence researcher and analyst at the think tank RAND Corporation, says the Abrams tank is "a bit of a gas guzzler".
