Модификация «доширак»: появились кадры танка Т-72Б3 с удивительной защитой

Tankers covered the combat vehicle with solid metal cables against kamikaze drones

Footage of a Russian T-72B3M main battle tank with an intricate anti-drone screen has appeared online. It looks like noodles.

The tank received a large screen to protect the upper hemisphere, which is often called a "barbecue". The product consists of a rigid frame above the turret and hull, as well as steel ropes forming a solid protective dome.

Such structures are designed to protect armored vehicles from kamikaze drone strikes.

T-72B3M is a modernized version of the T-72B3 tank, which received a rear-view television camera and a new sighting system with a digital display.

The combat vehicle is equipped with a new 125 mm caliber gun with increased barrel life, new fire-fighting equipment, a new R-168-25U-2 "Aqueduct" VHF radio station and a Sosna-U multi-channel gunner sight. The armor of the combat vehicle was reinforced with side screens with "Relic" dynamic protection modules.
