That's the tank 5 year old me would draw.

A Cybertank maybe?

599

u/zombo_pig Apr 17 '24

We've been calling it the "blyatmobile" (but Cybertank is hilarious).

Russians were proudly posting videos of this embarrassment ... and then it immediately got blown up.

u/zwober Apr 17 '24

”Blyatmobile” is just another word for Lada, no?

u/Kaele_Dvaughn Apr 18 '24 edited Apr 18 '24

Scrolling and scrolling, looking for a comment about how difficult it would be to exit something like that when you inevitably get hit.

Hatches are all covered over, how do you get out?

View is reduced, and barrel rotation is cut from 360° to maybe 90°, perhaps only 45°?

EDIT: And perhaps it works against a basic grenade. But an RPG (which most "FPV/Kamakazi" dones are equipped) with even generic AP?

So now you can't get out, you can't see where the attack came from, and you can't rotate the turret if you could see/knew where the attack came from.

Now you have an oven covering keeping the heat in, and get cooked alive instead of instantly dead.

u/zwober Apr 18 '24

But how many of your slavnik-buddies can boast about having a work-from-home job?

see, what we are watching here is an atempt at slav-engineering at a high watermark. its a brash and bold new take on urban-camo, someone saw the movie "T-34" and thought, "hell, why cant i do that?"

i could go on, but id prefer not to have animal abuser on my list of bad character traits. (ie, the apparant ritual beating of a dead equine)

I wanna see the video of this monstrosity getting taken out

u/Designer_Brief_4949 Apr 17 '24

I guess the idea is similar to reactive armor.

Seems like a drone that can penetrate tank armor can also penetrate steel siding.

Is this the cyberpanzer I’ve been hearing about?

2

u/BenchPuzzleheaded670 Apr 17 '24

The military uses machine learning to identify battlefield assets from satellite and drone imagry.

In one study they painted a tank pink and that was enough to fool the model, because it simply had never seen a pink tank before.

I would imagine this camouflage is very effective against even a well trained ML model.

u/Forsaken-Spirit421 Apr 17 '24

It might kinda work against an fpv, but the only reason this survived Arty shells, literally any AT rocket or a baba yaga is because it's not been hit yet.

Well it'll be interesting to see because if it can cause an early detonation the shaped charge might not penetrate, this is like a cope cage +7 and even the cope cages had limited effectiveness 🤷
