Tanks are outdated. Military aircraft rule the battlefield. Tanks seem like a massive death trap

Not even close. No matter how powerful air forces become, the need to take and hold ground will never change in warfare.
And to achieve this goal you've got to have armor, infantry, and artillery. Those three things in some shape or form have been a part of war since the dawn of civilization and will still be a part of war at the end of civilization.

When every body has IR technology camouflage isn't good for much. So yeah, tanks look vulnerable. And they need a big soft vehicle support train.
Back when Rummy the Dummy was SecDef it was discussed about getting away from main battle tanks altogether and using Stryker type vehicles.
It is hard to say what would work in the real world.
