  • SHOCKING video captures the moment a Russian tank is reportedly blown up, sending its turret hurtling 250ft into the air following a Ukrainian missile strike.
    The captured dashcam footage, reportedly filmed in eastern Ukraine, shows Putin's war machine exploding in an enormous fireball as it drives along a road.
    In the clip filmed from a car driving behind the tank, a huge blast erupts shortly up the road, and what appears to be a tank turret goes flying into the sky.
    A number of figures, possibly Russian soldiers, are seen desperately scrambling for cover.
    It was filmed by the Chinese state media channel Phoenix TV, which shared a clip of its journalist's close encounter with the inferno on its UA-cam channel.
    The video was taken while the Chinese team were on their way to the Azovstal steel plant in the besieged city of Mariupol, where they were covering the evacuation of civilians.
    t was reportedly taken last week, although not much else is known about the type of tank and casualty numbers or the type of weapon which destroyed it.
    Explaining the context behind the incredible video, the channel said: "Phoenix reporter Lu Yuguang escaped death during the interview in eastern Ukraine," adding that the driver needed "emergency deceleration to avoid danger".
    It went on: "Phoenix Satellite TV dispatched a front-line interview team from eastern Ukraine to go to the Mariupol Azov Steel Plant on May 6 to track and report the evacuation of civilians by the United Nations, the International Committee of the Red Cross and the Russian military organisation."
    The report said that while "on the way to the interview," suddenly a Russian tank driving in front of them blew up in "a huge explosion".

      Rossiya not Russia, Ukraine is the real Rusia (one s), Rossiyans not Russians, Rossiya is the actual modern adopted name of the Grand Duchy of Muscovy, not Russia. Rossiya attacked the Rus’ state of Ukraine. It’s a Rosso-Rus’ Ukrainian war, war between the formerly northern Rus’ (Muscovy) self proclaimed as Rossiya and the southern Rus (Kievan Rus), known these days as Ukraine.
      Rossiya actually stole it’s name, people must know that Ukraine is really Rusia and has always been Rusia until the 18th century, and “Russia” as we know it today, is and always was Muscovy, until they greekefied and stole the name of what is now called Ukraine.
      So Muscovy (self proclaimed as Rossiya) 🇷🇺 is attacking the real Rusia 🇺🇦 , foremost heir tho the legacy of the Kievan Rus.
      Name “Russia” (Rossiya) came into use in the 15th century but until the 18th century it was used to refer to what is now Ukraine, by the Byzantines and Helines(Greeks). But then the name was stolen by Muscovy. All in order to be eligible to claim the land of modern day Ukraine. Rus’, Rus’ land, Rusia, all trough out history was a name that referred to what is now Ukraine.
      If you care for Ukraine, in further comments please make a point to spell “Russia” properly, as Rossiya, or better yet refer to them as Muscovy and just put Rossiya in brackets. And please refer to their people as Muscovites/Rossiyans.

Attack helis in close support, highly mobile infantry screens, ECM etc... Lets hope the Russians continue with the strategy that is "all going to plan" apparently lol

    This one I rate a 9.8! Especially due to the exceptionally high TToF-value (Turret's Time of Flight). An awesome straight ascend combined with several twists and somersaults, garnished with an extraordinary VoFB-value (Volume of Fire Ball) attest a sophisticated performance. Slight deductions for the reentry phase because the turret did not land on the tank again.

    T-72 was designed before smart bombs and drones coming from above. But when it was designed it was very unlikely an enemy tank shell would penetrate it's armour and reach the ammo rack under the turret. But with drones it's a very expensive turret launch pad.

      That makes no sense. At this point it is very unlikely that if a tank takes a direct hit from another tank, they don’t get penetrated. What they are doing is trading survivability for size and an auto loader. Compared to the Abrams, the T-72 is half the length of a Abrams but the Abrams trades an auto loader for an 18 year old kid.

      Rossiya not Russia, Ukraine is the real Rusia (one s), Rossiyans not Russians, Rossiya is the actual modern adopted name of the Grand Duchy of Muscovy, not Russia. Rossiya attacked the Rus’ state of Ukraine. It’s a Rosso-Rus’ Ukrainian war, war between the formerly northern Rus’ (Muscovy) self proclaimed as Rossiya and the southern Rus (Kievan Rus), known these days as Ukraine.
      Rossiya actually stole it’s name, people must know that Ukraine is really Rusia and has always been Rusia until the 18th century, and “Russia” as we know it today, is and always was Muscovy, until they greekefied and stole the name of what is now called Ukraine.
      So Muscovy (self proclaimed as Rossiya) 🇷🇺 is attacking the real Rusia 🇺🇦 , foremost heir tho the legacy of the Kievan Rus.
      Name “Russia” (Rossiya) came into use in the 15th century but until the 18th century it was used to refer to what is now Ukraine, by the Byzantines and Helines(Greeks). But then the name was stolen by Muscovy. All in order to be eligible to claim the land of modern day Ukraine. Rus’, Rus’ land, Rusia, all trough out history was a name that referred to what is now Ukraine.
      If you care for Ukraine, in further comments please make a point to spell “Russia” properly, as Rossiya, or better yet refer to them as Muscovy and just put Rossiya in brackets. And please refer to their people as Muscovites/Rossiyans.

      The Russians opted for the Autoloader because they use untrained conscripts. It gives them a better chance of actually loading the correct type of round but, as you say, it has the disadvantage of storing the rounds just beneath the Turret. It's a design flaw the makers of Javelin and NLAW were well aware of.

      What i try to mean is :
      They've choosen auto-reload, so no crew safety !
      It's not : they don't care about the crew, so they put ammunitions under the seat of the crew ! ;D

      The severity of the explosion indicates that there was a direct hit - and subsequent detonation on one of the HE projectiles inside the tank. The mass of the turret delayed the venting of the blast for the critical microsecond necessary for all of the other ammunition and propellant to detonate also. This causes the tank to pop like a balloon.
