Den M60 er en amerikansk anden generation af kampvogn (MBT). Det blev officielt standardiseret som Tank, Combat, Full Tracked: 105 mm Gun, M60 i marts 1959. Selvom M60 kampvognsserien blev udviklet fra M48 Patton, blev den aldrig officielt klassificeret, men nogle gange uformelt grupperet som medlem af Patton kampvognsfamilien. Lighederne kan noteres i den originale variant af M60 og M48A3. Den amerikanske hær betragtede den som en "produktforbedret efterkommer" af Patton kampvognens design. USA forpligtede sig fuldt ud til MBT-doktrinen i 1963, da marinekorpset pensionerede den sidste (M103) tunge tankbataljon. M60 kampvognsserien blev Amerikas primære hovedkampvogn under den kolde krig. Over 15.000 M60'ere blev bygget af Chrysler. Skrogproduktionen sluttede i 1983, men 5.400 ældre modeller blev konverteret til M60A3-varianten, der sluttede i 1990.
