A lot of what The_Dunedan refered to has been dealt with with the Armys urban warfare doctrine. We do not allow top and ass shots on our tanks in a proper urban warfare environment (ie a "hot" war).
In Iran we would run into about as much trouble with tanks as we did in Iraq, the real threat would be the multitude of cheap unguided AT weapons that would find their way into un-uniformed hands. The Iranians have learned from Iraq.
We could MILIC our way through the DMZ in minutes, and after a short roughing up, the NK C3 nodes would be all but useless, rather an easy victory, if you don't mind them leveling Seoul with artillery while we kick their ass.
China, um yeah...
Lets just say Tank for tank they are not a threat, it is the huge preponderance of numbers they possess that makes for a sticky situation.
Of course the point is moot, we are still the only nation in the world that can truely project force, meaning that we will attack when it is advantageous to us, or not attack at all.
I for one would love to see your pictures, jorgelito.
