Use Explosive and Laser Stratagems
The easiest way to destroy a Tank is to use offensive Stratagems like the ones listed above. Note that most of these Stratagems are unlocked during the late game.
Use Anti-Tank Support Weapons
If you want to destroy a Tank on the ground, the Support Weapons above are the ones that can damage a Tank without shooting its weak spot.
Shoot the Vents of a Tank
All variants' weak spots are the orange vents behind their turrets. Since Tanks are really slow, you can attempt to sneak behind them and shoot the vents.
Use Armor Piercing Support Weapons
Not all weapons can damage a Tank's vents. The Support Weapons like the ones above can pierce through the vents!
Find Cover Immediately
As soon as a Tank spots you, quickly find cover since it can kill you immediately. Note that some structures can be destroyed by a Tank. So get ready to move to another one once the Tank obliterates it!
All Tank Variations
Annihilator Tank
It's a variant of a Tank that uses a cannon as its weapon. When fighting this variant, utilize a cover since its beams can one-shot you!
Shredder Tank
Another variant of a Tank that uses machine guns as its primary weapon. Unlike the Annihilator Tank, this variant cannot one-shot you.
