Incredibly beautiful destruction of a Russian tank by a drone💥
Near Avdiivka, soldiers of the Central Security Service and the SSU forced the occupiers' tank to evaporate by aiming at it directly in the BC.
It was not us who bought this drone, but we know this unit, we help them and will continue to do so, so throw it in the gutter👇🏻

Even as a complete military/strategic layperson, I’m looking at that image and going, “oh, that can’t be good. What moron thought up that design??”
If an inexperienced civvie can instantly recognize a doozy of a flaw, it’s a stinker to be sure.
Now, if the turret was completely isolated from the main body of the tank, such that the crew were completely protected in the event of an ammo breach, then fine. But I’m seeing a massive hole inside of the turret ring in OP’s video. With modern tech, you would think that having a completely detachable turret could actually be a thing, such that it could be isolated from the main tank with enough armor to keep the crew safe.
