Well of course. I don't think anyone believes conspiracy stuff like this.
Last I hear anyway, tank armor is mostly made of ceramics and composite materials these days.

[SIZE=2]not just tanks, rm, bridges too! LOL
two professors have collaborated with engineers in the New Hampshire Department of Transportation on the design and construction of a new bridge in Rollinsford that is the first in the nation to have a concrete deck made without steel reinforcement. In place of steel, the bridge has carbon fiber-reinforced polymeric grids buried in the concrete, which was poured earlier this week. The deck has no steel reinforcement whatsoever.
Engineering and Physical Sciences: No-Steel Bridge
bridges near the ocean tend to rot faster due to the salt air....
