During the process of combat coordination of units of the armed forces of Russia and Belarus, an unusual device was noticed on one of the T-72B3 tanks involved in the exercises, put on a multi-channel sight of the gunner "Sosna-U".

The answer to the question of what kind of possible new domestic development this is could not be found even by some of the experts who are closely involved in the armored topic. The author of the Gur Khan attacks blog, Alexey Khlopotov, explained to the Bulletin of Mordovia that we have a protective hood of a driver mechanic for driving a tank in a marching manner. He covers tankers from dirt, dust, rain during marches.

In this case, they decided to use it to protect the "eyes" of the combat vehicle, that is, the sight, which, in principle, is very logical.

"Earlier in the Soviet Army, it was fashionable to put such caps on the infrared illuminator "Luna" located next to the gun. Moreover, as a rule, it was done by T-62 crews, for example, in Afghanistan. Moreover, this was almost not observed on the T-54/55. At least, I hardly ever met them in archival photographs," Khlopotov noted.
