  1.  @kara88bg  It wouldnt, thats would need multi layer defenses counter different munition types

  2. ​ @Tigerman1138  In a nutshell yes Modern ATGMs can be guided by Electro-Optical or Semi-Active Laser (SAL) to exact same point on a tank Modern anti-materiel rifle (AMR) can use High-explosive incendiary/armor-piercing ammunition (HEIAP) which are explosive rounds with a tungsten sub-penetrator as well saboted light armor penetrator (SLAP) rounds also with tungsten sub-penetrator AMR can easily use SLAP or HEIAP to neutralize EM armor. AMR can also target Active protection systems as well The USMC combined anti-armor team (CAAT) uses combo of AMR, AGS and ATGMs to engage tanks Counter armor tech has advanced to the point where heavy armor is becoming moot

  3. Its pretty simple figure out Unless someone develops a power like ARC reactor EM armor is not viable

  4. Ultimately, I believe why it was abandoned is that one you can double tap with ATGMs Striking the same spot in rapid Two solid rounds like Sabos wouldnt be affected by it Three, shear kinetic force would destroy the plate
