They invented military tanks mainly to make advances where the machine gun fire was too heavy for unprotected soldiers to advance on foot.
They are called tanks, unless you refer to a specific tank in which case it is called by its particular name.
Tanks were first used to tear away masses of barbed wire to permit foot soldiers to attack, to cross over trenches, and to carry the attack to defenders using machine guns and cannon aboard the tanks.

I have heard that in World War II a 'grease bomb' was a form of sticky bomb. The soldiers used them to take out tanks by taking explosives and making them sticky and stuck them under or on enemy army tanks (or panzers as the Germans called them). I'm sure there are more sophisticated ones now.
Indian soldiers were also called "Sepoys".
