It's over for tank-sis
Drones have put the final nail in the coffin of tanks.
A $500 Amazon flying toy completely curbstomp a $5000000 tank.
Drones have officially made tanks permanently obsolete.
Tanks will never become relevant again in future warfare where drone swarm will dominate the battlefield.

You just posted a list of everything that directly counters tanks in an effort to defend tanks

And yet first world militaries still use plenty of tanks despite having ready access to all of these things...

if tanks were so useless then why are both sides of that war desperately trying to get as many tanks as physically possible?

Air defenses didn't make aircraft obsolete. It's just another threat to counter for planners. BDE/DIV engagements will look like
> SEED to set conditions for air
>air to set conditions for arty
>arty to set conditions for EW
>EW sets conditions for ground maneuver
>ground maneuver consolidates gains
>repeat until you win war

Literally we just added a step, which granted, I reduced down something very complex to simple, but the point is this isn't the first time militaries have had to adapt to new technologies. Nothing moves as fast or goes bang as big and enduring as a tank. Until there is a substitute that combines mobility, endurance, and firepower tanks will continue to exist- even if their role is diminished or limited in scope.
