.IN LATE 2021 Russia started welding metal cages over the turrets of its own storage tanks, in a try to defend all of them coming from assault. The crates proved ineffective– some Western side analysts jokingly called them “emotional-support armour”. Right now Russia has actually launched an even more intense retrofit, using metal sheet to totally confine a few of its own storage tanks.
The brand-new armour has earned the automobiles the label “tortoise tanks”. Will kitting all of them out thus really assist?
