M103 Heavy Tank
The M103 Heavy Tank (officially designated 120mm Gun Combat Tank M103, initially T43) was a military vehicle that served in the United States Army and the United States Marine Corps during the Cold War. The last M103s were withdrawn from service in 1974. The M103 was the last heavy tank to be used by the US military as the concept of the main battle tank evolved, making heavy tanks obsolete.
