This comparison is not fair because tank's performance doesn't double every year.

Tanks' performance has improved a lot since the 1960s, though.

The platform is still largely the same though. Fancy Abrams tanks are of 1970s designs with modern modifications.

T-72s and such are also kept updated with modern gizmos like reactive defense, etc.
