THIS is the dramatic moment a Ukrainian drone destroys Russia's "indestructible" turtle tank in the latest blow to Putin's failing forces.
Footage shows the sturdy military vehicle suddenly blowing up in flames after its crew left the hatch wide open in a fatal mistake.
The drone is seen in the daylight mission smoothly descending until it enters Mad Vlad's tanker, hitting it with pinpoint accuracy.
Bright orange flames engulf the turtle tank, reducing it to debris and melted metal.
The precise attack was recorded by the Ukraine's 93rd Mechanized Brigade.
Ukraine's Ministry of Defense confirmed the blow on X, writing: "Occupiers made a 'turtle' tank but forgot to close a hatch.
"[Ukrainian] drone pilots don't forgive such mistakes."
"Turtle tanks" generally refer to tanks with a heavily armored, low-profile design resembling the shape of a turtle.

They would still be alive if Putin didn’t send them to kill Ukrainians.
Be mad at Putin for not giving them a real tank.
Be mad at Putin for not giving them a real tank.

Any tank can be destroyed if explosives are dropped down an open hatch. This is not the work of inspired genius.
Drones have dramatically changed how both sides conduct a war
Too many have died to stop Nazi aggression
That is not something to celebrate
Tell The Syrskyi to tell your Elenskyy to tell The Putin that he's ready to negotiate.
Tell The Zaluzhnyi to get rid of the former president of The Ukraine, and make a deal with The Putin.
“Russian T-90.”
And, of course, the hatches are open.
Someone is hatching a plot against the T-90.
ButButBut “GEE WHIZ! THAT BLEW UP REAL GOOD!!”
Chocolate chip.
