extremely bad news - we’ve just received word that the entire staff of Gulpp, the hot new Web 3.0 custom smoothie delivery service, was cooked alive inside their merkava by a single Palestinian teen with a molotov

You are too good at these.

Yeah we deserve them and honestly I think we should take in them and ~6 million of their friends and neighbors and let the Palestinians have their land back

Agreed. Maybe we could set up a reservation for them.

How does this differ from other armies at the time? I was under the impression that a lot of tank doctrine was essentially maneuver warfare where they'd be massed and used to break through and surround or cut off slower units.

very broadly speaking, there are two ways to use a tank:

1. use them as part of the assault/breakthrough phase, because they carry a big gun that can blow up hard targets (that can't be hit by artillery for whatever reason) and they are generally immune to small-arms fire

2. use them as part of the exploitation phase, because they can drive across rough/broken terrain, and because they move much faster than foot infantry. This is the part you're referring to where tanks are massed, and just drive on through a battlefield that's already been cleared out, and their purpose is to smash up whatever's in the rear areas and to cut off retreating units that move slower than a tank

if you are using them in Number One, they need accompanying infantry, because tanks have bad visibility, especially when the commander is buttoned up in the turret, which he will be if he doesn't want his face shot off.

Bad visibility means infantry will be able to move around and towards the tanks without being shot at (because they can't be seen), and/or that anti-tank weapons can be brought to bear on the tanks without being spotted (i.e. an AT gun hidden in some bushes, a Javelin team hiding in some bushes).

eventually the Soviets did get better at this, and it's actually a rather difficult thing to get good at: even setting aside the motivation/morale problem of "how do you get the infantry to move in concert with tanks when the infantry feels like the tankers are safe and secure and they are not", you still have to deal with things like coordinating the speed of advance, and how do you get the infantry to communicate clearly and effective with the tankers.

but to get good at it, is necessary

It's a lot of words to say other militaries had more radios.

The fact they try to pin these sort of mistakes on the purges and not the fact the Red Army had more than quadrupled in size within the previous 3 years tells you all you need to know.
