Recently SABOT Publications released the 4th book in their Warmachines Series of books. I am happy to share my review, taking a look inside this new book, M1A1 SA in Iraqi Service.

Very good review Todd...it reinforces the high quality that could be seen simply from preview images posted on social media. A fresh approach to a book on the Abrams.
The inclusion of the decals is stellar! Hopefully Sabot Publications continues that trend with future books...like a Sheridan book...I need some Operation Just Cause M551A1 decals!

Thank Jason! To be honest, it is almost impossible to give a "picture book" a poor rating. These books are pure inspiration for me! The decals are simply awesome! Especially since I have to probably buy and Abrams kit at the next show this week now! LOL I am sure SABOT will delve into the Sheridan world at some point, I know there are too many fans out there not too. And it would be outstanding to provide makings in the future as well!

The Iraqis lost a hundred Abrams over that period? Ouch. Nice shots of the AFVs in-country though.
