For a particularly nasty (and maybe a bit gamey) variant of this theme, one could also try using German self-propelled rocket launchers with 32 cm flame rockets for direct fire. Those tend to cause rather insane amounts of suppression just hitting the same hex.

However, the amount of rockets per vehicle is rather limited, so they need to be used carefully, and those vehicles can be quite vulnerable to anti-tank fire.

Also, scouts with SMGs can be handy in an urban environment - presuming that the enemy is somewhat suppressed, you might be able to move these into a good firing position without enemy noticing and then unleash a few good burst, making it easier for your main force to immediately follow up and mob up the (now hopefully very seriously suppressed) survivors. Of course if the scouts end up receiving fire from any unsuppressed enemy, they might suffer quite badly.

Engineering tanks (like M4 dozers) can be useful for demolishing houses with a reduced risk of getting immobilised - thus providing other tanks with new avenues to advance through into a good firing position.
