No, I'm basing it on what my brother, a Force Recon Marine, did against PT-76s in Vietnam in 1971. He got one with a LAW. Not heavy tanks, but a PT-76 isn't a heavy tank.

You got it , LAW, Light anti tank weapon. Even though the sheridan was light armor it used false shielding to help detonate API before reaching the hull. A heavy armor tank with auxilary armor packed on top takes one hell of a shell to stop.
