	Tank classification - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The British referred to these as infantry tanks and cruiser tanks respectively, although the latter was expected to exploit holes in the enemy lines and "cruise" at high speeds behind the lines.
		There were medium tanks that focused on anti-infantry capabilities, such as in WWII the Panzer IV short-barrel and the M4 Sherman with a 75 mm gun, and medium tanks that were more focused on the anti-tank role, mounting high-velocity tank guns.
		In short, super heavy tanks were merely an extension of World War I ideals regarding heavy assault guns placed on self-propelled carriages, emulating the railway guns and heavy artillery of their time and with the rise of missile and rockets, extremely long-range guns became obsolete.

		Tank doctrine in the UK declared that one group of tanks would accompany infantry in a similar role to WWI, while another group of 'cruiser' tanks would then exploit a breakthrough, in a role similar to cavalry.
		When Soviet tank designers were preparing a successor to the BT Fast Tank series, they combined its excellent mobility with thick, sloped armour and the unprecedented firepower of a 76-mm high-velocity gun.
		Tank designers responded with increased armor and active armor systems, which while they do not entirely defeat this threat, require the size and weight of a missile needed to defeat a modern MBT much larger and less portable.
