However, this situation may eventually change when tanks are equipped with anti-missile systems, giving them active defenses.

Article Abstract:

The design of a motor vehicle's suspension system, particularly in terms of riding comfort, is often as important as increasing the vehicle's power. A bouncing wheel, a lost grip on the road and a vehicle that is shaken about will neutralize the effect of additional engine power in a vehicle's performance. However, suspension system design requires a balance between a number of myriad factors that include tire pressure and the damper technology used.
