In the last decade, drones have become cheap enough, good cameras have become cheap, and headsets to control them have become advanced enough. Most recently shown during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, a $500 drone can take down a multi-hundred of thousand dollars 10 ton war machine. So I pose the question: Have tanks become obsolete within the last decade?

Idk tanks are reaching the end of their rope

But the idea of armoured box with gun that can’t be hurt will always stay as long as warfare stays generally the same

We need tanks. They are big boxes that can’t be killed. Just make them better & better

They're not obsolete because that's what they've been saying for a long time yet they're still building them so who knows really but I would say that they just need to find more anti-air protection capabilities to help shield of drone or missile attacks I don't know sh*t though

Unless warfare takes a massive shift then tanks will always be useful

As long as they have enough air support to stop drones, they will stay useful for the foreseeable future

When tanks fly, tanks can never be truly obsolete or looked upon as archaic
