The M1A2 Abrams is 69 tons, not 55.

But in a tank on tank fight, the M1A2 would have an advantage with it's better mobility and C3 systems. The gun and armor pretty much equal, both tanks having about a 50% chance of penetration at 2km.

This is very close... but I think the M-1A2 is just about edging it.
