Former TOW gunner here. From what I have seen, a well-placed TOW 2-B missile will destroy an M-1 without question. The crew and in the turret will die instantly and all operational and electrical components BBQ'd.

Between the nationality of those tanks, their crews, the missiles and fighters these vids are Exhibit A of that shitshow.

The RT video has an ISIS fighter (enemy of Russia?!?) firing a high dollar Russian Kornet at a US tank driven by Iraqis.

Just because that's a Kornet missile does not mean the Russians gave it to ISIS. The Kornet has been around since the 90's and has been exported by the thousands to dozens of different countries.

Sure, there could easily be non-Russian middle men. The region just looks like a more convoluted arms bazaar than ever before.
