I thought the Stryker and other “fighting vehicles” were the light tanks of the infantry.

No. They are more like the light Bradleys of the infantry. Even the MGS is simply a bunker buster, not a anti-tank platform.

The tank they are talking about developing is for the Airborne type light units that couldn't use Stryker if they wanted to.
