I've heard about and seen videos of APC's and other infantry carriers being taken out by IED's, but haven't heard of the Abrams being taken out by one. Not saying it's never happened, just haven't heard or seen much about it if so.

I think I've read about it happening a couple of times in Iraq but I doubt it was either an IED as small as described or something that did more than disable an Abrams. I think its happened to the Saudis in Yemen.
