You keep mocking Russia's cope cages, but which western tank has a credible chance of surviving a top-attack munition, like a Javelin? Hard mode: can survive multiple hits.

idk if they can, I'll assume they can't, but Ivan that's not why we laugh at you. We laugh because you strap some retarded monkey quick-fix on top that rattles around and provides zero protection whatsoever. It's like watching a child trying to shoot an animal with a water gun: you know it won't work, but he doesn't, and that's funny
which Russian cope cage allows them to survive multiple hits?
>the daily vatnik thread trying to revionism what cope cages are about is back
My top kek of this week was when a vatnik claimed that if the West made cope cages they would work because of "better material". Truly a cargo cult.
I can recall that a russian media website claimed that cope cages were nicknaned by their tank crews as "grills" due to their appearence, wich is revisionism because the ukies were the first to invent that nickname. The nickname came from the cages colapsing/melting in the ammo cockoff flames, preventing the tank crew from getting out, hence grills.
It's because it looks like you'd be grilling up some shashlik on there.
>melting in ammo fire
>prevent the crew from escaping
The crew is between the ammo and the grill bruh. If the grill is melting the crew has already been cremated.
That’s bullshit because the T-72 has an escape hatch on the bottom
Which is easily blocked if the tank isn't on solid flat surface. Soviet tanks don't have that much ground clearance. Even so the hatches on top appear to be what they try first.
lmao you fucking retard, go back you fucking tourist.
This thread isn't revisionist, the revisionist take is to say its anti drone or nades from building etc.
So cope cages have a credible chance of surviving top-attack munitions like a Javelin?
Does Trophy work against ATGMs?
No shit, if it can stop an RPG it'll stop an ATGM.
Yeah.
>you keep mocking the frying pan i strapped to my chest, but which western soldier can survive getting hit center mass by 25mm autocannon???
Zigger logic, people.
>but which western tank has a credible chance of surviving a top-attack munition, like a Javelin?
None. This is why we employ this thing called multi-layered defense. We might lose ONE tank of a column to top attack munitions but after that everything in the general vicinity will get a visit from Mister Air Force and Doctor Artillery.
We also got the means to achieve total air surpremacy at will. Means we can have 24/7 multi-spectral real-time surveillance that spots every fucker with a javelin early enough.
It's nice when your baaaad bad MIC makes sure you stay ahead at least a decade over your possible adversaries.
These two are right, I am guessing all this footage of tanks getting owned by drones and missile will accelerate the implementation of ADPS
They're going to have to start replacing the warheads on every 2nd ATGM with EW/decoy suites to overwhelm the APS sensors, cat-and-mouse
>orange tipped barrel
Russia using airsoft tanks now?
I'm not sure this is what War Thunder fans meant by "Soviet bias, pls nerf"
God that's awful.
10/10 my sides are in orbit
The T14 has an active protection system which detects and intercepts incoming anti-tank munitions that are moving up to mach 5. This provides 360 degree cover and is effective against depleted uranium
and how many T14s are in ukraine anon?
That wasn't the question
All 12 of them I would imagine.
You will of course post us a video of this system in action, right?
>You will of course post us a video of this system in action, right?
How will HATO ever recover!? Our most advanced AEGIS defenses... useless...!?
there's 56 not 100
Don't do the vatnik like that. Fuck they barely have a video of a T14 working at all.
>The T14 has an active protection system
that nobody saw in action retard
I've never seen you so I guess you don't exist
The most intelligent zigger
>Limited rotation pedestal APS
>Cant even intercept above ~15 degrees
>Doesn't even actually provide 360 degree coverage because tubes cant aim behind it
Unironically best thing about Armata's Afghanit APS is its ability to deploy soft-kill countermeasures. The hard-kill seems quite lacking, especially compared to Trophy or Iron fist.
In what kind of scenario would Western tanks encounter Javelins?
>credible chance of surviving a top-attack munition
not russian tanks you retard
Merkava IV with Trophy+Iron fist will handily swat several top-attack ATGMs from the sky simultaneously
I think this is one of the things that is believed until these tanks face actual top-attack munitions in live combat.
It's not really a stupid idea. If you drive a t-xx through cities, which as a tanker sucks, but you have to do, it can catch an rpg7 tandem, or not. Also makes it a bit harder for FPV drones to get a top kill. Still, the bigger issue is that if your opponents have hard counters all around like Javelins, NLAWs, Carl G, Panzerf, AT mines, Excalibur rounds, DPICM etc. then it's not going to move the needle on how many tanks get destroyed much.
>but which western tank has a credible chance of surviving a top-attack munition
IDK, I dont think anyone does.
But to be safe its better to put cope cages on them as AFU is doing.
Drone net =/= cope cage. Drone nets actually work sometimes to stop FPV drones.
Have you seen the latest round of next gen, quantum nano-carbon, science fiction gear that the Russian military is producing in such large numbers that they can issue them to every single conscript?
The coconut headset actually looks kinda nice.
Try using combined arms tactics to mutually support each other so that you're all collectively more efficient and suffer fewer loses. Armor is literally your last resort.
Why don’t they extend it over the back and add ERA? And at the point start piling on more shit to break up the silhouette and confuse a javelins AI
>can survive multiple hits
Proofs?
>You keep mocking Russia's cope cages
Sounds like that retarded Russiaball comic
Why aren't you posting the orginial version of the picture?
