Why is tanks in anime always be cannon fodder? Wouldn't

>>148786825
Because tanks obey regular physics, while mecha obey anime physics.

>>148786825
Because tanks are only good at killing other tanks.

If those tanks were obeying anime physics, the crew would have been able to aim and shoot the main gun at Izetta instead of being beaten into a pulp on the inside of their vehicle.

I know Japs weren't too into tanks, but c'mon we've had them for about W century now, many of the crazy weird things have been tried.

Maybe they're always fodder in anime because Japs simply don't know how to make a good tank

>>148786825
well because tanks without infantry support are literally cannon fodder

I'm pretty sure the Postdam Declaration removed Japan's ability to independently develops arms and munitions though. Even if they wanted to they still can't.

I'm aware, its just most people are unaware of the restrictions Japan is under involving their own military and sovereignty.

True. As an American, I hope they don't mind too much. They were doing pretty well

>>148789398
Infantry man can hide behind even the smallest obstacle with his RPG, pop out, shout "Nothing personal kid" and cap your armored ass with one good hit.

>>148789697
This used to be true maybe in Vietnam back in the time there were no thermals and at least 3 different models of unmanned vehicles scanning the battlefield.

Please don't bully the autistic retard too much, he didn't know how fucked tanks without infantry support are in modern warfare despite a lot of reports in the Middle East and Ukraine thanks to retarded commanders.

>>148789697
Technically true, statistically rare. You forget to take into account countless things that make that suicide mission almost impossible, such as sneaking up in the first place without being machine gunned down or high exploded. Then, in ye olden days, you have to pray your rocket doesn't miss it's mark, because your position is revealed and your dead anyways. In modern times, even if it hits it could easily not do anything, and you might be dead before it even hits. If tanks were so easily countered by a single guy, they wouldn't be produced. Games have to have balance though so they scale down their power by a great deal

Threadly reminder there is literally no point in having a large and expensive-to-keep conventional military when you can either have nuclear weapons or ally to a country that has them.
GATE was right. Modern warfare is fought by guerilla and intelligence agencies.

If you think the RPG is the main killer to tanks in Ukraine then you are absolute wrong.

The main killer to armored vehicles are artillery, DPICM/sub-munitions, thermobaric warheads and tanks firing KE rounds. You can also throw in self propelled guns in direct fire roles.

Ironically enough, the only vehicles that have a chance to survive are tanks since they have the armor needed to take hits. Smaller and lighter vehicles usually get killed far often then tanks

Mechs run on rule of cool, realismfags need not apply.

>>148786825
>>148786869

Because if both obeyed more realistic physics, mech would be shit, if both obeyed anime physics tank would have clear advantige in most aspects.

I agree there should be more tanks in anime but sadly its mostly mecha in many war themed anime.

But mechfags usually start talking about how objectively betters mechs are as reasons for their overuse in anime at expense of tanks and retreat into rule of cool when proven wrong.

Thinking about it now, if in Aldnoah Zero the Terrans used tanks against Johj Kataphracts, and Inaho as tank commander while calm and the others are manning the tank, kicking ass with it, I wouldn't have bothered complaining that it was shit and that they were wanking MC. Going to space would be a problem, tho.
