See this is what a cope cage should look like. Not whatever drunkenly slapped together shit the local ziggers keep wanking over.

Fucking sweet. I can only image how that fucking tranny and suspension are holding up.

the main thing for me is that it's an actual military vehicle under there instead of a lada or moskvitch that's had all its doors removed

There is no solution to drones. God damn.
>>
It may be a good idea to spin the rotor or chain at high speed to hit the drone and shift the direction of the HEAT.
>>
Sooooo we're at the point where vehicles need to be completely re-designed from the wheels up right? If you have to build an entire tank around your tank...

I know that's not a tank. The tank sheds are even worse. APS possible for light vehicles? Ew+ some way of severing fiber optic cables at static points they would have to cross where the cable falls behind onto the ground, I dunno but this shit is a problem.
>>
>>64433529
I don't know why we haven't seen remote weapons stations on tanks or APCs shoot down or at least toward drones. All the vids I've seen they either don't notice or just try driving away faster. Not that I expect Russia to have remote weapons stations on their vehicles at this stage.

It's got african warlord and mad max vibes, and I guess it can maybe stop fragments from a drone-dropped 40mm grenade.

I had a buck-breaking southern-dressed pepe smoking a cigarillo saved somewhere that said "Back in my day, 'blowing a tranny' meant car trouble." Can't find it now.

>>64433529
In theory drones are a lot slower and more fragile than more conventional AT weapons. So countering them with APS seems like it should be feasible.
But in practice it’s obviously a really difficult problem to solve and might easily take decades until there’s a reliable solution.
So for now it sure seems easier and more sensible to focus on better passive defences.

Serbs did this better coming up for 30 years ago
>>
>>64433551
Even with remote weapons, how would you identify and target drones quick enough for it to have any effect?
They’re fast, small and can come from
essentially any angle.
Shooting down a drone or two in ideal conditions is easy enough, but for the system to be worthwhile, it needs to be able to handle drone after drone in rapid succession
>>
Since there are no birds or accompanying infantry moving at Mach speeds, is it easier for high-speed anti-tank missiles to be automatically identified than drones?
>>
>>64433622
Drones are loud as shit, and birds bob up and down slightly so no.
>>
METAL BAWKSES

>>64433622
That is the commonly given explanation for why existing APS can't counter drones, I assume that now you could do more advanced signal processing and take into account drones.
>>
>>64431421
Those tyres are pretty good camouflage.

Better of fact, why don't they use these anti pigeon thingies, you can buy them in bulk from the Chinese and it would save you a lot of time by not building spikes yourself

>Could just as easily be Russian because they have captured loads.
Yeah? Most of the ones they have came form Georgia and if they 'have loads' how come they are using mad max hacked up ladas as suicide wagons?
>>
>>64435188
Because they're extremely short and not very strong. They dissuade birds that weigh less than 2 lbs, they're not going to stop a drone.
>>
>>64430016
Probably okay. It doesn't look like it has the uparmor kit that turned them into overloaded pooches. This cage alone isn't going to max out the suspension and powertrain.
Those kits ruined HMMVWs and should have been stripped off when MRAPs became available.
>>
>>64434714
I bet that shit originated on pirate.
>>
>>64433565
Yeah nah, a 40mm grenade is going to turn that thing into swiss cheese.
>>64433720
A quadcopter has got to have a wildly different radar signature than a bird. Spinning rotors/props/turbines are like one of the easiest things to identify.
>>
>>64433565
...you are not stopping 40mm frag with a fucking tyre.
>>
>>64430013
>erm we made fun of the vatniks for doing it, but now that we're doing it it's okay because.... because.... it looks neater!
holy cope batman.
>>
>>64435377
>>64435358
It might slow down the fragments a bit if the grenade goes off a meter or three away.
You gotta remember there are a few layers of wire in the tires.
It's obviously hopeless against a direct hit, but Igues that is where teh pure hopium of that cage thing on top comes in.

It's like the sandbags and logs they used in WW2, 95% ineffective, but if you roll a 20 on your saving throw you get to jump out of the Buhanka before it explodes.
>>
>>64434967
I have seen pigeons make nests in that shit
>>
>>64435188
A a guess, rebar ordered in bulk is even cheaper.

Even Chinese 'trust me bro' tier metal will work for this.
