keep in mind players are going to be spending recorces on geting tanks out.

AV takes out tanks quickly striking from their sides and especially their rear. The front armor is highly mitigating, even towards other tank shells. This is mostly based off of Higby's stream. The Prowler looked like hell after taking a single shot from the vanguard to the rear, but it didn't seem fazed by a shot to the front.

The Vangaurd displayed the vice versa at the same time, nearly no damage from a shot to the front, and a lot when the prowler struck Higby's vanguard in the rear.

All in all, it doesn't seem to matter what you bring, attacking a tank's front is suicide, but flanking around and striking it's rear will bring it down near effortlessly. This knowledge on it's own encourages teamwork, either through close infantry support, the secondary gunner guarding against flanking infantry, or other tanks keeping watch from behind.

A lone tank would be easy pickings for an infil or LA with C4. Seems pretty much everyone but the medic has some anti-armor capability, even if some methods are riskier than others.
