Ukrainian Humvee covered in spiked caged armor

See this is what a cope cage should look like. Not whatever drunkenly slapped together shit the local ziggers keep wanking over.

>>64430001 (OP)
Fucking sweet. I can only image how that fucking tranny and suspension are holding up.

>Ukrainian
Could just as easily be Russian because they have captured loads.

So yeah, bait thread to make me say what I said so you can say something in reply.

You will never be a real mission

fpbp

>>64430037
lol

>>64430013
the main thing for me is that it's an actual military vehicle under there instead of a lada or moskvitch that's had all its doors removed

>>64430013
i dunno mate, looks retarded no matter how well it's made.
but i guess if it works it works.

New fetish unlocked.

There is no solution to drones. God damn.

It may be a good idea to spin the rotor or chain at high speed to hit the drone and shift the direction of the HEAT.

Sooooo we're at the point where vehicles need to be completely re-designed from the wheels up right? If you have to build an entire tank around your tank...

I know that's not a tank. The tank sheds are even worse. APS possible for light vehicles? Ew+ some way of severing fiber optic cables at static points they would have to cross where the cable falls behind onto the ground, I dunno but this shit is a problem.

>>64433529
I don't know why we haven't seen remote weapons stations on tanks or APCs shoot down or at least toward drones. All the vids I've seen they either don't notice or just try driving away faster. Not that I expect Russia to have remote weapons stations on their vehicles at this stage.

>>64431416
>>64431421
It's got african warlord and mad max vibes, and I guess it can maybe stop fragments from a drone-dropped 40mm grenade.

>that fucking tranny

I had a buck-breaking southern-dressed pepe smoking a cigarillo saved somewhere that said "Back in my day, 'blowing a tranny' meant car trouble." Can't find it now.

>>64433529
In theory drones are a lot slower and more fragile than more conventional AT weapons. So countering them with APS seems like it should be feasible.
But in practice it’s obviously a really difficult problem to solve and might easily take decades until there’s a reliable solution.
So for now it sure seems easier and more sensible to focus on better passive defences.

>>64431416
>>64431421
Serbs did this better coming up for 30 years ago

>>64433551
Even with remote weapons, how would you identify and target drones quick enough for it to have any effect?
They’re fast, small and can come from
essentially any angle.
Shooting down a drone or two in ideal conditions is easy enough, but for the system to be worthwhile, it needs to be able to handle drone after drone in rapid succession

Since there are no birds or accompanying infantry moving at Mach speeds, is it easier for high-speed anti-tank missiles to be automatically identified than drones?

>>64433622
Drones are loud as shit, and birds bob up and down slightly so no.

METAL BAWKSES

>>64433622
That is the commonly given explanation for why existing APS can't counter drones, I assume that now you could do more advanced signal processing and take into account drones.

>>64431421
Those tyres are pretty good camouflage.

Keeps the pigeons from crapping on your ride

>>64434967
Better of fact, why don't they use these anti pigeon thingies, you can buy them in bulk from the Chinese and it would save you a lot of time by not building spikes yourself

>>64430016
>that fucking tranny
You will never be a real armoured vehicle

>>64430026
>Could just as easily be Russian because they have captured loads.
Yeah? Most of the ones they have came form Georgia and if they 'have loads' how come they are using mad max hacked up ladas as suicide wagons?

>>64435188
Because they're extremely short and not very strong. They dissuade birds that weigh less than 2 lbs, they're not going to stop a drone.

>>64430016
Probably okay. It doesn't look like it has the uparmor kit that turned them into overloaded pooches. This cage alone isn't going to max out the suspension and powertrain.
Those kits ruined HMMVWs and should have been stripped off when MRAPs became available.

>>64434714
I bet that shit originated on pirate.

>>64433565
Yeah nah, a 40mm grenade is going to turn that thing into swiss cheese.
>>64433720
A quadcopter has got to have a wildly different radar signature than a bird. Spinning rotors/props/turbines are like one of the easiest things to identify.

>>64433565
...you are not stopping 40mm frag with a fucking tyre.

>>64430013
>erm we made fun of the vatniks for doing it, but now that we're doing it it's okay because.... because.... it looks neater!
holy cope batman.

>>64435377
>>64435358
It might slow down the fragments a bit if the grenade goes off a meter or three away.
You gotta remember there are a few layers of wire in the tires.
It's obviously hopeless against a direct hit, but Igues that is where teh pure hopium of that cage thing on top comes in.

It's like the sandbags and logs they used in WW2, 95% ineffective, but if you roll a 20 on your saving throw you get to jump out of the Buhanka before it explodes.

>>64434967
I have seen pigeons make nests in that shit

>>64435188
A a guess, rebar ordered in bulk is even cheaper.

Even Chinese 'trust me bro' tier metal will work for this.

don't worry Rajesh, considering how things are going in the shithole named russia most people there will freeze to death this winter.

>>64438464

so they took back all their land and are pushing into Russia?
no?

not winning

>>64438558
>operation vatnik shield
How exactly are they going to protect the refineries, oil terminals, power stations etc.?

>>64440302
Fire into the air with rusty AK and air rifles. Possibly a PPSh.

>>64440307
Well, at least the commieblock next door is not eating a pantsir missile then.

>>64441002
No place is safe from the air defense cuck's degeneracy.

I remember there is a webm of a humvee surviving a RPG round, does anyone have it?

>>64430001 (OP)
To all the defense industry companies that have been stealing my posted ideas, you need to contact me directly because I have a way to counter cope cages as well. For too long you've been using my ideas for free and DON'T try MRI mind reading on me my tinfoil is ready.

Is that a M36 Jackson?

Literally nothing works against drones NOTHING your fancy EW is just a hot target for fiber optics drones
This was is 5 years old and there is no solution in sight

>>64434967
These are the most useless products that companies have ever managed to sell to idiots. The number of bird nests that I've seen in these things is ridiculous.
>>64442286
DEW haven't been tested within the real world yet, and it looks like America is betting big on that as its primary defense against drones. Ukraine needs to start talking to companies like Epirus and getting them to come over or work on joint projects with them

>>64442314
DEW have crazy potential for AA but
High energy lasers are expensive so you only have a limited number, you can post observation drones outside their effective range and kill those systems with artillery or have the drones be sitting idly in ambush

>>64431421
>MRAPs
I'm rubber and you are glue...

>>64430001 (OP)
What do the bristles do that the cage doesn't already?

>>64431421
wonder how that 70 hp soviet petrol engine holds all these extra weight

>>64430016
Imagine tranny's probably doing pretty well, since they don't have to worry about drones targeting them while they drive the humvee

>>64442286
I've seen turtle tank footage with like 4-5 drones stuck in the wire fuzz atop the tank. It's stupid but it definitely seems like it's capable of stopping a few FPVs

Why dont they just put jammers in them
