Russian tanks have been protected with passive armor against kamikaze drones with fiber optic control. This was reported by the commander of a tank battalion with the call sign Diplomat.
According to him, the soldiers install a protective dome on the tank's hull, which can withstand hits from several dozen UAVs without damaging the combat vehicle's armor.
We have come to a modified tank hull, we make a light weld from corners so that the machine does not lose its combat capability. We do not weigh it down too much. Then we weld ropes and fluff them up. We make so-called " ромашки" (daisies), some call them "ёжики" (hedgehogs).
The commander explained that this protection is very effective, as the drone detonates on the ropes as it approaches the tank, and the cumulative jet loses effectiveness at a distance from the vehicle's hull. In total, the system can withstand up to 20 drone hits.
In addition, the " ромашки" are specially designed to protect the tank's armor from fiber optic drones. Electronic warfare only works with those UAVs that perform the task on frequencies, Diplomat concluded.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that the Oreshnik missile turned out to be lighter than the Yars: it will fly to its target from near space.
