T-72B3 VS M1A1 Abrams #shorts

This simulation shows the impact of the 125mm APFSDS-T with a Tungsten Alloy penetrator being fired from a Russian T-72B3 tank with a cage armour at a range of 0.8km, targeting the turret side of a US M1A1HA Abrams tank.

In early April Russian engineers took the cope cage to its next level, completely enclosing an entire tank in sheet metal with an electronic warfare device mounted on top to counter drones. While this might look ridiculous, it seems to actually work.

This is an approximation to the Heavy Armor version of M1A1 Abrams tank turret side which has a 1st Generation depleted Uranium armor.

Here we used a Russian T-72B3 tank fitted with 2A46M-5 gun which recently reported destroying a US-made Abrams tank of the Ukrainian army with the first shot in the Avdiivka area.

Welcome back, Tutel.

well, i might be a nato fanboy but it's fair enough. no tank can survive an apfsds to the side

[codyskull]

It's so weird seeing a Abrams without machine guns on the roof. Looks so bald.

The end result is correct, an 125mm APFSDS can penetrate the side of any tank turret, but how we got there is completely fucked, that tank crew in the Abrams were looking directly at an enemy tank, say “what’s that?” To nothing and then instead of just using the commander’s sights, they turn the whole damn turret

[cactus_nihahahah]

Thermal sight : "i'm not here, i don't exist"

[ConstantineJoseph]

Even a 105mm apfsds will penetrate any modern MBTs side armor.

It’s the front that tanks present themselves

[AHSValor]

Tfw everybody is so wrapped up in the cinematic that they believe it to be a real situation

[Robertx]

Nobody’s talking about the fact that the abrams turned it’s weak point towards the tank it knew was there???

[enraikow]

That's not a cope cage, that's a whole room

[Bestplayer-mxyb]

All shits and giggles until the Abrams is at the T-72s 10 o clock and it can’t aim lmao

[WeLovePeaceful]

I don't understand why, in real combat, the tank commander knows where the tank's weak point is, but they still points the side of the vehicle towards the enemy😮

[TheGooberWhoIsRandom]

what did you use for the armor simulation?

The math ain't mathing on this one

[trofimtrofimov]

Я хоть и из России, но признаю, что для танкового боя танки НАТО более хорошие. НО, в современной войне проще уничтожить танк с помощью FPV дрона, чем создавать «танковую дуэль». Это доказано войной в Украине.

[demontnstandoff]

Ни один так не выдержит выстрел из 120мм пушки, минимум он выйдет сразу же из строя, максимум сгорит

[mariebcfhs]

At least the Abrams' commander will chicken out

[ЮрийСоснин-оф]

Я один думал, что наоборот, будет стрельба по Т-72 с мангалом из Абрамса?...
