I can't find the tank thread, so I'll start this here.
It seems current tank engagement doctrine in the field is to fire the tank's gun if possible, from behind an/obstacle, embankment, etc and then promptly move/reverse to prevent return targeted artillery fire etc. It seems that technology exists to track incoming fire accurately and fast enough to take out the offensive equipment by tracking the rounds of an indirect firing position, and hence the need to quickly move/relocate.
This makes me wonder, with newer much longer range ammunition being developed, like ramjet 155mm sabot rounds able to accurately reach out over 100KM, and with I assume an in the air Flightime exceeding over a minute, would it not be possible for the targeted equipment to use the same tracking technology to predict the target and then relocate before the shell arrives, making the new current long range artillery somewhat ineffective?
