Wow, I didn’t know that tanks, after being invented in WWI, had not undergone any amount of change or update until now. Really, almost impossible to believe. And in just three years, they have undergone the massive overhaul or adding a cage and some spikes. How could tank manufacturers possibly keep up with these radical design changes in a few short years??
It really depends on what level of change you consider relevant. There has been a constant back and forth between armor and armor piercing rounds over the last few decades.
No worries my comrade, I am well aware. I was simply sarcastically pointing out that this article is making a normal adjustment to the conditions of warfare out to be a large jump in technological advancement.
Looking back I feel slightly foolish for not noticing lol
It happens lol a sardonic tone can be hard to get to come across over text. I guess I should have added /s
Necessity is the mother of innovation, aye…
The next logical step is turning all tanks into one, large spike.
Metal Gear?
i do feel like we might actually get small mechs or exoskeletons because of drones

ideal form might be the spider tanks from Ghost in the Shell, since they have little roller wheels on the feet for transversing roads. something that can crouch really low, hop around, scramble over broken terrain.
a jumping spider bodyplan would be best maybe. plus you can still have sloped armor and the body is perfect for a small crew and fuel/ammo/heavy weapon mounts
I hope the spider tanks are like the ones in Sound Of The Sky like the Takemikazuchi.

Will they have cute silly voices as well?
oh goddess yes they must
Tank made of shit that fires missiles made of shit that turn everything they hit into shit
Someone would just invent a penis tank that would slice the shit tank in half with a jet of piss.
Just Metal Gear Ray with a high-pressure piss cutter
pppffftttt
Wake me up when somebody makes a “Mole-Tank”.
