Drones have come to define the war in Ukraine with both sides making prolific use of the them for observation and ordnance delivery.

Russia's Turtle Tanks 🐢
Просмотров 1,6 млнМесяц назад
Two weeks ago, we looked at a curious in-field adaptation carried out by a Russian unit operating near Krasnohorivka. A T-72 had been near totally enclosed by sheet metal to protect it from FPV drones. Various imagery showed the tank encased in a trapezoidal steel structure, giving the vehicle the look of a shed on tracks. Since then several other similar 'turtle' tanks have been seen in the fi...

reminds me of the Mauss a bit
Ah yes, plating that won't stop anything but WILL hinder your line of sight, chaff and eliminate the turret's 360-degree angle. Sounds like R*ssian engineering to me.
Pretty sure that rear sight adapter is a pen lid 😅
They're telling us russia has no weapons and nato has the newest best things, then we see nato plastic bottle grenades. Shocker.
Why??? Didn’t we give them hundreds of billions at this point or did they launder ALL of it already???
Why what? These are rifles bought and retained in the UK for training purposes.
If it keeps people alive I say it works well
會攻擊又會移動的谷物倉庫😂
Haha.. Theyr'e adapting.
Turtle tank 🐢
interesting how these things are evolving...
Talk about giving you wiings
Whats the point though? They're still obviously tanks lol and wtf is sheet metal and wood gonna do
mom i want ww1 tank , ww1 tanks at home:
Ingenious. That is deffo a helluva blast. Impressive innovation.
In the middle ages they used sling sticks to throw 14 pound stones at armoured opponents. I wonder if they could use sling sticks to throw those grenades.
best cqb weapon and ammo ^^
I don't suppose the rest of the army will be getting it anytime soon, they'll have to soldier on with the SA80 family.
New Rifle will be selected by 2028 under Project Grayburn. More details when I'm able to share them.
Amazing how many left handed users were undermined by bull pup design. Left handed people have been undermined by SA80 making them slower to respond. Apparently WOKE doesn't cover left handers. As a veteran I'd love to give it a whorl
The irony that they were going to have SA80s for left handers but decided the number of lefties made it non-essential
Well, at the cost of vision, speed, maintenance, and turret control they've managed to make their tanks useless in combat and more vulnerable to everything that isn't a drone or a mine.
i guess this is mostly to try and hide from drones.
Can't wait for warthunder to add this to the russian tech tree... also tutel :D
Share this? fu!
Hmm?
WW1 all over again
69 (You said Type 69)
Dey has learned from da Orkz from 40k. Literally. lol
Lol Ukraine gonna fall eventually. Russia could take the place in like 3-4 days if Europeans and their ill extensions wouldn't interfere. Well, they want Russia to pay the price of Ukraine before getting it
So the shed is a hard shell, but a shell can cause the turtle tank to shed its shed?
It's wild to think about all the arms being sent all around the world all the time
Пиздец он в живот направил,этот в синем аж ахуел
Hi tech love it
Would be great if this war just ended and people could start rebuilding their homes.
So thos is where multicrew tank combat 4 got that FISH heavy tank
Maybe spain is just trying to get rid of their cetme l to replace them at home with something better. Maybe the ukrainians have them in storage as a "last ditch" gun, since they tend to be on the worse end of reliability
Looks like something out of ww1
Ironic..Slava 🇺🇦
This is the type of weapon that could be obtained from a variety of countries on different continents. When the Czechs were scrounging for artillery shells around the world, they may have found some of these too.
Oh yeah, the sources are myriad.
Russia has suppressed ak rifles and Ukraine has M14s lol
You think Ukraine doesn't have suppressed rifles?
Great, UK selects a 1960's rifle. Way to go.
lol all modern designs date back to concepts developed long before the 60s.
Because the 1960's design works and has proven itself. New is only better if it actually improves on older designs. The AR has demonstrated itself to be one of the best for conventional layout rifles in terms of compactness, weight, reliability, and modularity.
If I've got it right the unit price is £12,500 each which seems quite a lot
Yeah the rifle is quite expensive and so is the optic set up they've selected.
Contract probably signed off by an MOD civil servant who wouldn't know a rifle from a tent pole.
@@tristacker Yes I remember Sir Stanley Hooker One of Britain's great aircraft engineers said their integrity was beyond question. But when it came to technology they were totally ignorant and aircraft manufacturers screwed them
😂😂
They really couldn’t have just made a buckshot 37mm, there’s no way it wouldn’t be as effective
war crime right at the beginning of the video, yet still supported and backed by NATO
Which bit was a war crime?
A good platform in the ar system but think a bad move having an optical sight as the first aid. Can see a back up iron sight but when using optical sights you are maybe not aware of other things infront of you.
So Red Bull does really give you wings!!
so essentially they devolved their tanks into a sad ww2 stug wannabe
Looks like it works
The front of that silencer makes it look like an alien fleshlight 😂😂😂
World War I just called: it wants its tanks back!
Korone: Hehe tutel! Tutel house. Smol smol tutel house!
Mom can we have Jagdpanther? We have Jagdpanther at home. Jagdpanther at home:
MAybe Greek fire ?
