Nope because fighters are going to be the light air vehicle.

So it will most likely be a 1 seater that the pilot controls everything.

A thought - if they had more grip, then they could more easily outmaneuver the tank's tracking and act in a similar fashion as an EVE frigate taking on a cruiser.
However, the LAV is more of a workhorse. It transports and it can fight, but it's not a master of either. Although a skilled driver can make up for it, it won't often be a top-dog in a battle when we get more variety like what's suggested in this thread.
The LAS, on the other hand, is geared directly towards combat, but doesn't have much transport capability. Skilled driver+gunner combos would wipe the floor with most ground vehicles, but are somewhat vulnerable to infantry. HAVs are normally the opposite: infantry killers that face a challenge when an enemy HAV rolls onto the battlefield.

In short, I do agree with that hypothesis. However, an LAV won't be as effective against tanks as an LAS would be, merely because the LAV isn't focused on the job, while the LAS is.

EDIT:
@directly-above-this-post: The HAV obliterates infantry in the hands of a skilled driver, especially with a blaster maingun. The main issue right now is that not many people have the coreskills necessary to properly drive a fully-equipped HAV or Marauder (around 3-5mil SP in coreskills for optimal usage).
Expect HAVs to really get dangerous sometime around the first-second week of March, when people have gotten enough SP for their plans (not set in stone at first, therefore wasting first SP) to come to fruition.

RE-EDIT:
@Xender17: VTOL fighters are already confirmed. Heavy aircraft (gunships) are also speculated to give fighters something to escort.
And that movie aircraft was the V-22 Opsrey, IIRC. And your description sounds like something the Minmatar would use for a gunship, so you might be on to something...
EDIT-AGAIN: Walking into it is a neat trick, but developers as a whole never really nailed that kind of thing - for example, play GTA IV and try to stand on a boat that your online buddy's driving. We're using an engine that's even older than that game, so i'd expect such problems to arise here as well.
