Russian tankers began using visors with dynamic protection “Contact-1” to protect tank turrets, reports DEA News With reference to the Russian Ministry of Defense.
It was clarified that these “birdhouses” were attached to the anti-accumulation grille of the combat vehicle. The protection is welded to the turret of the tank on four long rails, forming a canopy that protects the upper part of the vehicle, whose armor is weaker than the main part. Such structures were used in the NWO region from the very beginning, but now the additional level of protection has been increased and its weight exceeds 200 kg, when about 40 canopies are hung in rows on the tower.
