Lost in the discussion is the idea that the tank should not have a future, and neither should most weapons of war, because they are brutal inhumane killing machines from a past era that have no place in future societies - this is my view as a pacifist. My hope is that humans can move past the idea of war for settling conflict, otherwise what is the point of social norms like privacy, respect, and courtesy between people, when the same people in society can condone killing of their youth in war? In my view tanks are are a tool of war against the progress of society and I don't see that changing in the future.
