If the requirement for the MBT-70 had occurred a decade or even five years later then I could see something like your M70 developing, maybe even as an export tank. The US wasn't to keen on exporting the M1 Abrams around the time of the Twilight War timescale, and the Lima tank factory would have been busy churning them out for US military use. However the M70 might be a considered a good tank to give to US allies who used the M47/48/60 tanks such as Turkey, South Korea and others as well as keeping other tank factories such as the Detroit Arsenal Tank Plant running.
