If WW2 is anything to go by, it can be expected that a whole series of variants based on obsolete tanks to fulfill battlefield roles would appear over the courseof the war.
I would expect to see tank chassis in all nations become modified, especialy after damage. If you can salvage a tank with a fragged turret then it's easier to replace the turret than rebuild/repair.
Two ideas I toyed with ina campaighn was a kangaroo variant of the chieften which elaced the turret with troop carrying space in a similar fashion to the WW2 kangaroos and a variant of the chieften that replaced the gun turret with a missle system for the Milan.
