How Bad Was The M60A2 Starship?

Just like the M247 Sergeant York, the M60A2 Starship has a reputation as a less than stellar tank. Developed during the 60s and fielded during the 70s, this Cold War main battle tank certainly has its quirks. Today, we'll be seeing just how bad it actually was, in addition to the history behind its development. Featuring a152mm M162 gun launcher, the Starship was to primarily fire MGM-51C Shillelagh anti-tank guided missiles. While the M60 chassis was fairly reliable, the turret and gun proved to be very troublesome, among other things. Check the channel "About" section for the link to the creator of my profile picture.
