I would not want to be on the receiving it end of a Javelin missile.
But that’s just me.
Now I wish I had a whole collection of 360 and 401 AMC Javelins.

Some folks think Russia is just posturing when it comes to the Ukraine. Going through the effort to make those modifications argues against that.
The slat armor is because the Arena APS systems on the T-72s they’re rolling have a sixty degree “blind spot” behind the tank turret where the APS cannot sense or fire. It’s an older version of the system; in the rest of its arc, Arena is hell on wheels against suicide drones or ATGMs.
Later versions of Arena don’t have the blind spot.
If the Russians make a move, wanna bet they do it in concert with the ChiComs...

Tired of the neocon line that Russia is the one on offense. Given the corruption of Ukraine and its Biden Crime Family handlers, Russia probably feels that the failed state of Ukraine may strike first.
Nice modification, now need to use two missiles per tank. Of course the Ukrainians could alway build bridges with low clearance preventing the tanks from going under the bridge..... 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for tipping us off Pootie-poot. Noted.
I’m going to install an umbrella of slatted armor on top of an old car I have and drive around.
I wonder what kind of attention I’ll receive?
Not seeing much that three words couldn’t fix:
“Warthog depleted uranium”

Russians have sport model versions of their tanks? ;-D
Putin could take out Brandon & the gang with 4 golf carts and a dozen drunk Russian poets.

Back to the drawing board or Sandbox. Sigh.
39 second Javelin Anti-tank test - for those that never read the articles ...
Click then hit the play button, then close YouTube tab after play. I count 13 seconds from fire to target.
