Russian military personnel have upgraded the T-72B3M tank, equipping it with massive anti-drone protection featuring a "king-mangal." The combat vehicle has been dubbed the "Doomsday Tank."
The tracked vehicle is completely covered with a steel "king-mangal," under which infantry can be positioned. Steel rods are welded perpendicularly to it-these serve as attachments for coils of barbed wire, in which a kamikaze drone can get stuck.
The chassis and hull are covered with rubber-fabric screens and dynamic protection blocks. Additionally, electronic warfare systems for suppressing drone control channels and smoke grenades are mounted on the assault tank's "mangal."
Rostec noted that themain secret of Russian tanks lies in the unique blend of characteristics andadaptive production capabilities.
