Turtle tank

The tsar mangal (Russian: Царь-мангал, tsar mangal, lit: King of all Grills) or turtle tank refers to armored fighting vehicles that were fabricated from T-62, T-72 and T-80 tanks used by Russian Forces, and modified with extensive improvised steel roof and siding, as well as copious amount of anti-drone slat armor which cover the sides and rear of the host tank. The heavily modified armored fighting vehicles were spotted in action in early April 2024 in Krasnohorivka on the battlefield of the Russo-Ukrainian war.
