One was destroyed in the process when an RPG started a fire in the engine compartment. It was eventually recovered, what was left of it, and returned ti the US for study and disposal. The rest continued to soldier on. They were eventually brought back to the US, totally rebuilt, and were sent back out to the force. Most are still out there somewhere in the Army.
