Monster Russian turtle tank is blown to bits by Ukrainian mines

A monster Russian ‘turtle tank’ has been blown to bits in Ukraine. Drone footage taken by the Shadow Group reveals how it was destroyed. The tank - covered in armour and armed with a mine plough - was captured rolling at speed across the battlefield in Ukraine. But all the additional protection failed to save it from Ukrainian mines. The tank was hit by several explosions, and the crew forced to flee. Another was blown up by soldiers of the 2nd batallion of the National Guard. Video shows the tank being hit by a drone or anti-tank rocket in Kreminna. A third was destroyed by FPV drones flown by the TERRA unit. Russia began creating ‘turtle tanks’ in March to overcome Ukrainian drones. They are made of a tank chassis with a metal ‘barn’ welded over the top. Sometimes a mine plough is attached to the front. This makes them slow, limits the vision of the crew and the rotation of the gun, but is designed to save them from precision strikes with FPV drones. #dailymail #russia #ukraine Daily Mail Hom
