[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A Russian armoured vehicle covered in protective plating was blown up by a drone after the commander forgot to close the hatch.
The embarrassing fail was caught on camera and shared by Ukraine's Ministry of Defence, as footage showed the metal 'turtle tank' rolling along a muddy battlefield in Ukraine before it was destroyed.
The Russian combat vehicle, clad in protective sheet metal in an attempt to stop Ukrainian drones from causing damage to the tank, could be seen shakily trucking along the path unaware of the destruction that would hit just moments later.
As the rusty-looking vehicle zoomed through the area, the clip cuts to the drone's perspective and shows the device penetrating the tank after getting past the outer sheet metal shell and slipping into the open hatch.
The 'iron shed' then bursts into flames, sending an orange blaze into the sky in a humiliating blunder from the Russian commander. |
