In this episode of The Modern Tapes, Brody Fletcher revisits the opening hours of the 1991 Gulf War—when precision bombs and satellite-guided missiles replaced the thunder of tank columns. From President George H. W. Bush’s televised address to the eerie aftermath of the “Highway of Death,” this documentary-style episode traces how Operation Desert Storm marked the death of the tank’s century-long reign. Featuring firsthand analysis, historical narration, and striking sound design, The End of the Tank explores how technology, air power, and information warfare reshaped the modern battlefield forever.
