The M88A2 vehicles, which are currently operational, are unable to perform single-vehicle recovery of the Abrams weighing up to 80t during all conditions due to additional weight and survivability improvements made on the tank.īAE Systems invested in independent research and development for developing M88A3 to perform single-vehicle recovery of the tank.
