There is only 1 "tank dlc" combined arms. But its not really good.
Ground combat is extremely basic. No proper armor simulation. Just basic move this vehicle around in 3rd person mode. The ground AI is also insane in its accuracy so you'll most likely be blown up before even seeing the enemy.

Before you decide to do that: DCS:World is combat flight simulator. Not the tank simulator. There is addon called "Combined Arms" But it is not tank simulator. It allows to control ground units. But rather on level of RTS with very simple first person interface for some units. Definitely uncomparable with the detailed aircraft simulation.

Regardless how you decide to read the title, I suggest reading the description, and looking up some videos.

He didn't even look at the dlc list to see that there's no tanks. Sometimes you gotta let people stumble, if you try to help they'll bring you down with them.

If you want Tanks :pilotconfused: you need Steel Beasts or here at Steam is a nice Tank Sim called GHPC try this. Here you will find mostly flying Tanks like the Su-25 or the A-10 :pilotcool:

There is though. Combined arms allows you to operate ground vehicles

Yep, however, DCSW is about Air combat and all but one Modules DLCs are about planes, not tanks.
You can drive tanks with Combined Arms, but that module is quite limited.

If you are interested in tank combat you should move to a different title, or take a walk on the wild side try flying with one of the free modules and see if you can like air combat :steammocking:
