Which brigade combat team are most armor officers assigned to?
I've heard most are currently being assigned to SBCTs but wasn't sure about the validity of that. Do very many armor officers get assigned to IBCTs?

The only slots in an IBCT/SBCT for Armor Officers are in the single Cavalry Squadron each has. The majority of new armor officers will go to an ABCT as that is where the job openings are.

To your initial question, it is the Armored BCT that most armor officers are assigned to.
The Armor branch it seems in on its way out. It looks like the big wigs want to turn the Army back into infantry only Army cuz they think they will not have to fight major engagements and win a war the way they did in Vietnam but sitting in small fire bases and send out occasional foot patrols. Oh wait, they didn't.
