No, it's a British-made blade, the same that is fitted to the Challenger. Trumpeter includes one in the KFOR Challenger kit. But the mounting brackets are specific to the Abrams so you'll have to modify those included in this kit.

Yup, its a British Pearson blade. Also, they have only been used by the USMC on their M1A1HCs. The US Army doesn't use it.
