Ukrainian defenders destroyed a unique Russian turtle tank, - Forbes
In the Krasnogorovka area, the Russians brought a very strange tank onto the battlefield. This is a T-72, but of the “latest” modification. Its turret was protected by armored plates, which made the vehicle look like a turtle, but this did not stop Ukrainian artillery from destroying the tank. This was reported by Forbes, Censor.NET reports.
But, even despite its shortcomings and unreliable protection, the T-72 was able to drive through the wall of fire and land infantry near Ukrainian positions, journalists noted.
Forbes also emphasized that the tank was even able to turn around and turn towards its hangar, but that’s when Ukrainian intelligence officers from a drone could see it. They adjusted the artillery strikes and the “turtle tank” was destroyed.
"By building one of the strangest homemade vehicles of the war, the Russians became too famous for their own good. And now the 'turtle tank' is destroyed, and its crew may be dead or injured," Forbes added.
