Yep. And the latest and greatest series of Hellfires have shaped charges that can blow to pieces even the most advanced tanks. I'm sure the Russians and Chinese have their equivalents to the AGM-114.
People envision these great tank battles like Kursk taking place again but the Army is probably right. Tanks are expensive and becoming obsolete. Land can be held with smaller, faster, more agile (and cheaper) fighting vehicles.
Closing the last American tank manufacturing plant in Lima, Ohio is nothing short of suicidal short sight. We don’t have too many heavy tanks. We have way too few armored divisions and mechanized divisions. We cannot fix that problem nor produce lighter and more agile tanks by shutting down our last experienced tank manufacturing plant. Look at the grossly lopsided number of tanks our potential foes have available versus the U.S. or the U.S. and Allies:
Tank strength continues to be the primary symbol of power for any modern land army.
