Ukrainian Tank Destroys Disabled Russian Armor
Published 2 years ago
Incredible footage recorded from the driver's seat of a Ukrainian tank shows the destruction of what appears to be a disabled BMP or self-propelled howitzer.
It's unclear what the target vehicle is in this footage. From the language being used, we can determine that the disabled vehicle is either an IFV or self-propelled gun of some sort. We can tell this because the Ukrainians can be heard referring to the vehicle with feminine pronounce as opposed to the masculine pronouns that they use when referring to actual tanks.
We can also determine from the lack of stress involved in this situation that the vehicle is likely abandoned and disabled. Regardless of that fact, this is definitely a rare look through the viewport of Ukrainian tank pilot doing his job.
It's also worth noting that the reduction in visibility through the viewpoint is somewhat of an optical illusion. When the tank fires, it triggers the autofocus on the camera, forcing the camera to focus on the dirt and muck on the viewport glass. To the human eye, the vision most likely did not change at all.
