Pantsir-S1 SAM system wrapped in futuristic armor: novelty spotted at the front

The vehicle was additionally protected with anti-drone screens

A combat vehicle of the Pantsir-S1 anti-aircraft missile and gun system was spotted on the front line, clad in an improvised set of anti-cumulative anti-drone screens based on 23-mm conveyor belts. This protection will provide partial defocusing of the cumulative warheads of PG-7VS and PG-7VL reactive anti-tank grenades.

Military expert Evgeny Damantsev drew attention to the fact that the chassis and power unit module of the vehicle are mainly covered from the alleged impact of FPV drones.

Two transport and launch units with ammunition consisting of 12 4.3-Makh 57E6/M SAMs also need anti-cumulative case-cuffs.
