The U.S. Department of Justice has information about repeated contacts of a 22-year-old conscript with Russian representative. In particular, he sent technical information about the M1A2 Abrams tank.
In the United States, they stopped an American soldier who was probably trying to transfer confidential information about American tanks to the Russian government. On Wednesday, August 6, the US Department of Justice reported.
It is noted that prosecutors have accused the 22 -year -old military service services of an attempt to transfer information about work and weakness of the main US battle tank M1A2 Abrams in exchange for Russia’s citizenship.
Taylor Adam Lee, who had the entry into secret information, received two federal charges, according to court documents, in an attempt to transfer national information to defense and exports controlled technical data without corresponding license.
“Thanks to the ongoing work of special Counterintelligence Command agents of the US Army and our partners from the FBI, soldiers who violate their oath and become a threat from the inside, will surely be caught and accused, and we will continue to protect army and equipment personnel,” said Brigade General Sean F. Stinchon, commander of the US Armmy Counterintelligence Commander.
Lee was arrested Wednesday morning, and on the same day he first appeared in a federal court. The FBI field service in Washington is investigating this case with the help of the US Army Counterintelligence Command and the FBI field service in El Paso.
It was noted that since May 2025, Lee has tried to confirm his authority to the US Army and send us defense information to the Russian Department of Defense. In June 2025, he said he sent online technical information about the M1A2 Abrams tank, subject to control control.

Lee also discussed the reception and provision of specific equipment located inside the M1A2 Abrams tank. On July 31, 2025, he delivered what this equipment was probably in El Paso storage, reports the US Department of Justice.
