Isn’t the tank more or less at an evolutionary dead end? Unless some radical weapons, armor, or propulsion technology comes around, there will be tweaks and upgrades.

As long as there is infantry to support and the need for mobile heavy weapons, I want some tanks around.

We may see a shift to robots with missiles and machine guns (cheaper than a tank) as expendable units to put in front.
