Russian Tank Used Dodge - It's Not Very Effective
Published 1 years ago
Incredible drone footage tracking a Russian tank that's maneuvering through an artillery barrage captures the moment the tank backs directly into incoming artillery round.
From this video alone without appropriate context it's difficult to tell, but it appears as if the tank may have also been simultaneously maneuvering through a minefield. If you watch off to the right hand side, the explosion appears to set off at least four additional explosive charges that are lined up with a fairly common minefield pattern.
It may also just be four large pieces of the tank hitting the deck simultaneously, but the third and fourth blasts have bright white flashes of light that indicate it is probably landmines sympathetically detonating.
It's probably safe to say that the crew didn't make it out of this one.
