Like the way the Roman Legions used their shields as overhead protection against a flurry of arrows. The called it “testudo” or, tortoise shell. So tortoise, turtle, whatever. Nothing new under the sun.

It should be easy to modify our tanks to do the same thing as the Russians did with their tanks...if we had the spot on non feminised leader ship that could get it done!

More propaganda... I’m sure a hellfire, javelin and NLAWs work just fine and any other anti tank weapon fired into the front or back would work fine as well .. the shell has minimal effect on a real weapon.

Just shows how INNOVATIVE the Russia are, especially when compared to the Warmed-over Hippies who run Western militaries and governments.

More of your usual Russian lies and propaganda

This can be safely ignored (as usual)
