Fascists love their Vundervvaffen. We're going to build a tank so high tech that it can't participate in basic tank doctrine or effectively engage in urban warfare!
NATOs absolute, unthinking, blind confidence in air power is going to be one of those things historians puzzle over once someone figures out how to 3d print an S600 or some shit.
NATO's idea of a future conflict being just "WWII with better planes and gadgets like drones" probably stems from all the Axis officers in NATO during its inception. Air superiority didn't win Vietnam, nor Korea, not Afghanistan, nor is it currently helping off the coast of Yemen. But they can't change course now, capital has its grips on the industry and expensive planes that can't fly in the rain or VTOL aircraft like Ospreys falling out of the sky be damned.
What air superiority is good for are indiscriminate war crimes, though, so they'll continue to do that. From the jungles of Vietnam to the streets of Gaza.
Umm ... why would they design a tank which cannot have infantry support? Doesn't that make them basically useless?

In an open desert with air support, it should be fine. In an urban environment against Guerilla fighters it's not.
But considering their main targets are ambulances and civilian cars, they'll still roll out the tanks anyway

Guess it was too hard to put an "off" button on the things.
