Regardless, the story of the tank since WW2 has not been of obsolescence but of evolution. But today the concept of the tank is one hundred years old, and since its heyday 70 years ago there have been countless debates over whether tanks still have a place in modern warfare. The tank's contribution to operational success was so considerable that an entirely new tactical and technological system of anti-tank warfare was developed, using bazookas, minefields and even anti-tank dogs (with varying degrees of success). Originally invented during WW1 to break through trench lines, the tank didn't reach its full maturity – or potential – until WW2, when it became a significant factor in warfare, both tactically and operationally.
