Are Tanks Obsolete?: YouTube Video Makes The Case For Active Protection Systems (from The National Interest)
A YouTube video of an M-1 tank being destroyed by an ISIS-fired anti-tank guided missile makes an irrefutable case for the U.S. Army acquiring active protection systems (APS) now. The Army says all the right things about wanting APS, but its current program does not reflect the urgency of the requirement. Congress needs to push the Army to deploy an existing system as soon as possible. I have written about this in National Interest.
