Therefore, the easiest way of damaging a tank - especially of the heavy class - is to attack it from the flank or from behind. Its sides and, above all, the rear are a different story, though. However, in reality, there is no such thing as an unstoppable vehicle, and even tanks have their weaknesses.īeing a breakthrough combat vehicle, the tank usually faces the enemy with its front side, so this is naturally in most cases the part with the thickest armour, both on the turret and the hull. That is all true to a certain degree, especially from the perspective of infantry armed with nothing but anti-personnel weapons. Each of these associations reflect the general impression that tanks are hard, sturdy, impenetrable machines that are almost unstoppable when advancing.
If you ask a layman what they think when they hear the word “tank,” in most cases they will respond with “heavily armoured vehicle,” “mobile fortress,” “steel bunker” and so on.
