U.S. Tanks are debatably the most durable in the sense that they all have nondoc smoke and good stabs, allowing for tactics that minimize damage taken.
Relic should have just increased the armour to 180 as-per the first Balance Preview, instead of increasing the penetration.

Repair critical allows higher survival chance if fausted/mined; and the presence of REs and vehicle crews means USF tanks can get back into the fight faster than other all other factions except maybe OKW. (But USF has numbers.)
Decrewing USF tanks saves popcap and increased income, too.
So, figure that for all the bonuses above + the power of properly used and equipped Riflemen throughout the match, USF tanks don't require extensive durability because they have other strengths that represent the United States logistical and tactical superiority during the later stages of WWII, and also to encourage a unique micro-oriented playstyle.

That doesn't change the fact that their units have the lowest HP ingame. (Except Riflemen and Stuart.)

jackson? I think it is actually the only unit in the entire game to have 480 hp.
Their heaviest unit is also limited to the bulldozer and the E8, both of which only have 720hp.
720 hp itself is actually "non-standard". everyone else either have 640 hp or 800 hp. The US is the only faction that's stuck at 720. In practice 720hp still means 4 shots kills from a tank, but the 80 hp do make a difference against schreck.
