Footage of another alteration by the Russian military has appeared online. They turned a T-80BV tank into a heavy armored personnel carrier.
The video shows that at least the gun has been removed from the combat vehicle. The improvised APC is already equipped with a familiar anti-drone frame, which has shown effectiveness in countering strike drones. The sides of the combat vehicle are covered with dynamic protection kits.
The T-80 is the only Russian tank with a gas turbine engine. The vehicle was adopted in 1976. In the West, the tank was nicknamed the "flying" tank for its famous acceleration to 80 km/h.
