Dude with a 2000 dollar thermal sight is gonna clap the guy with a javelin. Also any tank made by a competent nation (i.e.: not russia) will have thermal sights on their tank specifically to find some fuckboi on the bushes with a vibecheck tube.
Not to mention the myriad of other anti AT weapon tech like all the warning systems, IR smoke, and trophy systems. Now the Abrams X is real heckin fright
If you have a handful of tanks, your enemy has to spend a lot of effort on getting rocket launchers. Not just buying them, but also the logistics strain to get them to the frontline.
And if you notice the enemy forgot to bring their launchers, you can deploy your tanks, and exploit their mistake.
Mass tank assaults are over. But using them as an integrated part of a force still makes sense to me.
Friendly reminder that Marvin Heemeyer was a damn lunatic, in case there's any killdozer enthusiasts here. If he didn't kill anyone other than himself, it wasn't for lack of trying. He had every reason to believe there were fucking children in that library, and he wanted them dead. Fuck Marvin Heemeyer, may be rot in hell forever.
