According to Popular Mechanics the Royal Navy and the U S Navy are looking at this exact type of ship to replace Destroyers,Frigates and Cruisers. The shape reflects radar up and away from the ship. Also supposed to have a low heat signature.

As for tanks,look for same type of technology. Low profile,low heat.
But, big gun(155MM) plus missiles(Hell-Fire type)
According to Army we still need fast big gun on battlefield to protect troops and other armored vehicles.

I think this is a case of money doing the talking.
It must still be cheaper to fire a shell with gunpowder out of a barrel, than to launch a rocket or small missle out of a tube, not that that hasn't been implemented successfully before.

Actually I am sorry but it was the Romulans in the Original Series of Star Trek that had the cloaking device not the Vulcans. The Federation steals a cloaking device from the Romulans and used it to develop their own. Also I know what you mean about stealth, but there will still be large heavily armoured and armed tanks probably that will be used where stealth is probably less wanted and the enemy already knows about it, like a peacetime base.
