Not true im afraid, other videos show the drop tanks clipped the tail off
As absolutely ridiculous as it looks, assuming this is actually genuine. Its not without merit, there is precedence for this type of improvised armour in previous wars. I dont know how effective this would be in practice though with modern munitions. However, even if it isnt effective, if it provides a psychological benefit to the operators of the tank... Well its not a stupid as it looks.
If you're standing that close to a tank when it gets hit, you're probably dead anyway.
It's should be better armour than not having it, but this is Russia - they're pretending to be a global power and they're bringing this third world ****?
Whereas ERA tickles them?
What's it like being on the front lines of Twitter every day?
The two topics have multiple similarities and direct links so there will always be discussion of that (just like there has been for the past nine years of this thread), it's the same way a thread about Pepsi would have to involve discussion of CocaCola and the UK's sugar tax, two none Pepsi things that are relevant to the discussion.

This is straight up to strapping a log to your tank
(which was common practice in WW2).*EDIT*
Considering which army is involved here we can't rule out the possibility they're using asbestos rocks to protect against HEAT rounds...

What's it like being wrong all the time? I'm currently 9000ft above sea level, yet I frequently smell your BS.

They’ve given up autoloading and now stow the ammo on the outside in blast away magazines..
Not as stupid as it looks, might even work against RPGs, but tank shells, etc. will go through like it wasn't even there - I can't remember who it was but a YouTuber did a test at Drive Tanks TX and even the 76mm guns were penetrating similar kind of obstacles with enough power to compromise armour plate behind never mind the big guns.
