300 new armed personal carriers create demand for 6 times the amount in solders.
Their job is actually one of the most stressful an infantry soldier can be assigned to, because he runs out of heavy metal surrounded by heavy metal into their blind spots while really heavy metal is flying in super sonic all over the place.
The even smaller new NATO calibre is like a toothpick in a gun fight when the Main Battle Tanks start firing with the Pumas 30 mil coming to join.
The engines of the own Tanks are extremely loud, on turns the solder has to move and every enemy round bouncing of a Tanks hull adds to the danger of blindly moving own Tanks, direct big calibre enemy fire to also indirect fire.
In modern warfare those units having huge fire power and movability turn a prime target of combined strikes from all that sais Anti-Tank.
In US military that would be High Altitude Carpet Bombing, F-16 air to ground rockets, A-10 airplanes, Apache Helicopters, All Calibre Howitzers in target range and obviously Tanks.
In times of asymetric warfare these units are the opposite turning the personal carrier tanks into save house moving bases to perform house searches and anti-insurgency missions coming in quickly and moving out as quickly beside giving security and better sleep to liberated locals.
In a main war, they might be taken out first with no chance of resistance.
