Sensor Fuzed Weapon

Is this the death knell for the tank? An armor force without air superiority has always had a rough time but now it seems an armor force w/o air superiority faces extinction.

We have become very efficient at destroying tanks. The Iranians may as well turn their tanks into farming tractors.

Tanks always have been a rolling coffin. They can be devastating against infantry out in the open, but various anti-tank weapons can and have really taken a toll. I definately would not want to be in an armor unit with a flight of A-10 Warthogs around.
