Caught in jail. APU showed protected equipment

APU demonstrated the Soviet BTR-80 and Tanks T-80, with lattice screens installed on them, reports Messenger of Mordovia.

Recently, these machines took part in the teaching of the airborne and separate assault landing brigades.

“If the tanks received small anti-cumulation grids that covered the aft part of the towers, they worked more thoroughly on the protection of armored personnel carriers. A circular protection of the corps was installed on them (although not all of them survived), ”writes the author Dmitry Meleshko.

Commenting on the photos, he noted that the Ukrainian military tried to copy the Soviet designs of the Afghan war - “such obstacles should ensure the destruction of the RPG rocket-propelled grenades without generating a cumulative jet.”

So far it is difficult to say how close they were to the level of the object of imitation: “this can only become clear during the fighting and the actual shelling of armored vehicles from grenade launchers,” the author concludes.

Something a bit weak
Here is the BTR-80, 79th Airborne Brigade

[ancestors from Don]

it’s good that the VSUshny landing would not fall off the armor on the potholes when drunk.

[NIKNN]

Well, then 0.1 of America’s military budget is not bad ...

Something is rather weak.

On the APC, it’s definitely not for protection, but so that drunken VSUshniki do not fall. A kind of aviary.

Is it very funny? We, too, all go to the BTR-80, but without additional protection, because it’s not a war. But the same Syrians in artisanal conditions hang everything they can on their vehicles. And not because they are so stupid as Kiev , but because the armor is extremely weak. If we had more protected equipment or factory kits of additional protection were stored in the boxes, we could have neighed, but in fact there wasn’t any serious war, they would also screw the beds.

The lads are preparing for the campaign ..... here they are wise .... not everyone, after all, understands that they will not have mercy on Donbas ...

[Vitaly Anisimov]

In general, I would have closed the topic about Ukraine ... We in Russia are related to them!
They just run up .. But soon they will be cabbage soup with chickens and dumplings

BTR - an armored personnel carrier, in other words an armored vehicle. The main purpose of the armored personnel carrier is to protect personnel during transportation from fragments, maximum from riflemen. In defense it is used exclusively as a mobile firing point. It’s useless to make an armored monster from an armored personnel carrier - it simply loses mobility.
Should a serious war occur, no one will attack with armored personnel carriers.
Himself on the APC shook decently. Hanging boxes of sand, it was like that. We drove on armor from above - this is all the time. Again to the first star. My friend was knocked down from his armor by rubble, from the explosion of a shellless landmine when crossing a mountain river.
No one neighs, hanging on equipment that no matter getting forgivably to baboons, and not an industrialized country - at least 404th considers itself as such.

The best weapons against armored personnel carriers are the RShG 1, RMG and RPO grenade launchers, one hit and khan for everyone on the armor and armor of the saddles, gratings with screens will not help, because at the moment grenades are triggered, elements of these protective gratings and screens will fly to the armor caring for everyone who sits on the armor.

What are you "good"

. Hanging boxes of sand, it was like that.

I saw a video on YouTube, there the gratings were anti-cumulative, so there was a sand dump behind them, an RPG shot disassembled the grate and flashed 1.5 m of sand with a jet into glass, so that the sandbox will not help with the case, and the grating does not break grenade (although in some cases not without it) without the formation of a jet, but simply displaces the angle of impact of this jet and not the fact that it will help

... so that a box of sand will not help with the case, and the grate by and large does not break a grenade (although in some cases not without it) without the formation of a jet, but simply displaces the angle of impact of this jet and not the fact that it will help. ..

So I do not claim that this is a panacea - so, rather, for my own reassurance of those in the "box"

That's right, only there were no beds. During the war, Soviet tankers welded to the armor special mesh screens of factory production (mistakenly interpreted in the West as shell beds)
The effectiveness of the lattice is in the ability to turn the PC before triggering, so that the jet passes either past the body or at an acute angle to the screen due to premature detonation of the warhead of the projectile.

Lattices, and behind them, rabbits for "divorce."

[Mountain shooter]

This is the level of development of the dill defense industry.

[acetophenone]

The author is imbecile. Such things need to be shot at the training ground.

[kventinasd]

So this is not news.
For a long time there is the latest armored personnel carrier of the APU

[Glory1974]

Recently, these machines took part in the teaching of the airborne and separate assault landing brigades.

So they have no airborne troops. They renamed them the air assault, therefore, there is no “airborne brigade” either.

[Kleber]

And we don’t have airborne assault divisions? 76th Guards Airborne Assault Chernihiv Red Banner, Order of the Suvorov Division (in the common people the Pskov Division). And she is not alone.

[Glory1974]

And we don’t have airborne assault divisions?

We have airborne troops. The composition of the troops includes airborne and airborne assault units and formations.
In Ukraine, there are NO airborne troops. Accordingly, there are no airborne units.

Well, when you want to live and not so upset ... (c)
there are a bunch of films where the hero survived thanks to a flask or a thick bundle of money. If we get lucky.
sometimes some piece of iron saves life.
That's just from hopelessness.

[rumpeljschtizhen]

the title of the article is a diagnosis of brain patriotism .... how in Syria from scrap metal they will stick around the technique of HUMOR YOUTH

[mitchhunter]

Do not care for the grilles, but at least hollow shields from fiction. One figs to no purpose, if not used correctly, they will lose any equipment

[Hiller]

"blessed is he who believes" ... bullshit all this ... passed .. neither from RPG, nor from RPO it will not help .. about Utyos, NSVT, KPVT, ZU-shki, BMP 2 - I will generally keep silent ....
