.IN OVERDUE 2021 Russia began assembly metal crates over the belfries of its tanks, in an effort to defend them from attack. The cages verified inefficient-- some Western side analysts amusingly termed them "emotional-support armour". Currently Russia has actually introduced a a lot more intensive retrofit, making use of steel sheeting to completely enclose some of its own containers. The brand-new armour has earned the cars the label "tortoise tanks". Will kitting all of them out this way really help?
