Yeah it's weird after all this time, I don't think anyone has reskinned the M1A1, except for desert camo.  Cuz the woodland camo on that thing is starting to look a little sad. :(

Returning to the original question, you can fake it with an M2.    Back in the mists of time somebody did it to a lorry.   Dunno if you'll be able to fire it and be part of the tank crew, but you could probably make it look ok at any rate.    The script is probably in the Ed Depot somewhere.

Oh, and there is a snowy Abrams.  Comes with Kegetys Winter Nogojev I think.

I know, I just haven't heard any recent news about it personally.

I while ago I downloaded a tank with a secondary mgun mounted on its top. But I could never fire it.

By the way, there is a Jungle M1A1 out there.

Maac & Marfys MAF_m1a1!

They released some superbly textured desert units A LONG time ago. Get the whole pack plus desert Malden for some intense US-Iraqi confrontations. They only reskinned BIS models though, this was before oxygen and whatnuff.

I downloaded a script a while back that puts a machine gun on top of a humvee (I changed it to a MK19 GL... :))..
Is this what you mean.. I could post it here, if you want...

It works fine, and it could look okay if done right

cant be done with Tanks..... with the mg unless u are an amazing scripter....... I have a tank which has a mG on top (sultan cvrt) and it fires when turned in so im not sure if some-one can fire that just when turned out....... plus the fact that a vehicle can only have one weopon unless a set pos is made

its only ever cosmetic... some of the early early pics from OFP in 1997 (when BIS where developing this bad boy) showed M2's on the Abrams... not sure why they removed them, but i guess they had their reasons... all resolved in OFP2 i think (and hope)
