USMC M1a1 Abram ?

[usmcmidn]

I am aware the US Army upgraded its M1a2 Abrams with TUSK... One of the features of this upgrade was it gave the tanks additional armor

now.... my question is have the USMC upgraded its M1a1 Abrams armor in any way since TUSK came out? I know there was modifications done to the weapons targeting system ad the phone on the back of the Abram but what I really want to know is have the USMC given their Abrams upgraded armor like the US Army?


Also I head the USMC LAVs were given additional armor, true or false?

thanks guys!
