According to him, the system consists of many pieces of cable attached to lattice structures and hanging down.

The cables are easily moved aside even when loading 125-mm shells, which ensures ease of use in the field.

A simple and effective solution has already been tested in combat conditions. During the last sortie, a tank with such protection successfully withstood about ten drone attacks. At the same time, the system does not interfere with the crew performing combat tasks.

Rostec noted thatthe role of T-72B3 and T-90M tanks has been rewritten. Combat vehicles have occupied a niche between anti-tank missile systems (ATGM) and barrel artillery.

Earlier www1.ru reported that Russian Buk-M2E anti-aircraft missile systems have been deployed in Venezuela.
