The scenario: a fast tank (or any tank capable of movement, really) uses its first movement of the phase to check a minefield (ops4). Damage is rolled immediately, and scores sufficient damage to destroy the tank at the end of the round.

Questions:
1; Does it still make the roll to clear the minefield? (Almost definitely yes, but I have to ask.)
2; May it then proceed to move its remaining movement? (Probably, as it's not technically destroyed yet, right?)
3; If its movement permits, may it trigger and clear additional minefields this turn? (Wait what?)
4; May it also then attack and be attacked in the Shooting Phase? (Remove the head or destroy the brain!)
5; When does Cautious check for Destroyed? If it's in the Shooting Phase, the restriction is redundant, as tanks are not marked Destroyed until the first part of the Command Phase, before checking for Victory, repair, and Blitzkrieg. (Did you say Nazi Zombies?)
6; If a living tank triggers a minefield during its Blitz movement and suffers sufficient damage to Destroy it, does it wait until the next turn's Command Phase to kick the bucket, moving, shooting, and otherwise participating in battle as a healthy tank? (Braaaaains...)

Please send help. I don't know how much longer I can hold back the undead horde!

In a narrative sense, the various phases are occurring simultaneously, which is why shooting is so strongly affected by movement.
The tank does indeed stay in play until the Command Phase, but it could be argued that it made it's shots while moving through the minefield.

The blitz-move explosion is an odd case, I'll admit. :P
But I'd love to see that burning tank heroically limp forward to take down an enemy before it died.

tl;dr: no WW2 zombies here, just grim-faced soldiers with true grit. :)

I propose that tanks are destroyed at the end of the phase they lost all their hull. That way they can still "final fury" during the shooting phase.
