It's pretty much installed to calm down the soldiers. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] Thorny_Thicket@sopuli.xyz 6 points 3 years ago I believe you're much more likely to be hit with some sort of older soviet rocket or drone dropped grenade than a more modern one such as Javelin. I see slat armor on Ukrainian vehicles too so I assume it's better than nothing. Now that I think about it I might actually have even seen a cope-cage on top of a Challenger tank too but I might be wrong on that. permalink fedilink source parent
