The NATO air mission against the Serbs [0] in 1999 only destroyed 93 out of 600 Serbian tanks but had the effect of preventing the Serbs from using them effectively. This helped level the playing field between the well-trained Serbian army and the Kosovo Liberation Army.&lt;p&gt;After the surrender, when the Serbs drove their undamaged tanks home, the &amp;quot;look how many you missed&amp;quot; attitude missed the point. They were undamaged because they had effectively suppressed, and hidden in underground car parks, etc.&lt;p&gt;[0] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;NATO_bombing_of_Yugoslavia&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;NATO_bombing_of_Yugoslavia&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>On Killing Tanks</title><url>https://mwi.usma.edu/on-killing-tanks/</url></story>

Apparently, this method of warfare was ignored for hundreds of years and only came into use again when mechanized transports (like tanks) became widely adopted. The Soviets developed this into &amp;quot;Deep Battle&amp;quot; which was extensively used on the Eastern Front during WW2.&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Deep Battle doctrine bore a heavy resemblance to Mongol strategic methods, substituting tanks, motorized troop carriers, artillery, and airplanes for Mongol horse archers, lancers, and field artillery. The Red Army even went so far as to copy Subutai&amp;#x27;s use of smokescreens on the battlefield to cover troop movements.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Subutai#Legacy&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Subutai#Legacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Deep_operation&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Deep_operation&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>On Killing Tanks</title><url>https://mwi.usma.edu/on-killing-tanks/</url></story>
