There's even talk of smart "bombs" without explosives at all.

Imagne a 100lb or 500lb iron slug/penetrator hitting a tank from 10,000 feet. Does the damage and almost no collateral damage.

The Brits did that very thing with concrete smart bombs near the end of the active conflict in Iraq. IIRC, they took out one tank under a bridge that way.
