Remember the only reason they existed was in order to stuff guns that
could kill any tank on the battlefield at long range into an affordable
hull. (ie not as big as a Tiger or JSII) Once 90/100mm guns became
managable enough to stuff into a tank turret, then it became a
non-issue. I can stuff an MDC/4 into a size 3 turreted chassis at an
affordable cost, so why do I need a tank destroyer?
