The T-90M "Proryv" main battle tank once again surprised with its incredible survivability. The combat vehicle was completely burnt on the outside, but did not lose its ability to fire, said tank platoon commander Denis.
According to him, after a drone hit, the tank's turret and left side were severely damaged.
It was completely burnt on the outside, the left side of the turret — everything was burnt, but inside it remained intact. And we knew that this tank was intact inside, and it could still fire. I explained this to the crew, the guys got into the tank, 10 shells were brought to them, they fired 10 shots from this burnt tank.
Recently, it even became known about a case where a T-90M tank with anti-drone protection withstood about 40 drone hits and mine explosions.
After dozens of attacks, the "Proryv" suffered serious damage — the barrel was damaged in several places, then the tank lost its triplexes, but the tank still completed its mission.
Nevertheless, the equipping of "Proryv" tanks with "Arena-M" active protection systems has already begun — it will be able to effectively shoot down drones thanks to 36 counter-projectiles.
