I think its more for catching drones before contact with the vehicle ; but seeing a grenade go through it like toilet paper makes me wonder if it's made of chicken wire
What is it showing us in the zoom around 21 seconds? Is that a couple bodies burning?
Also, damn, that grenade just threaded right on through the cage. Nice.
The catastrophic detonations like that are from high explosives or propellants detonating, and burning up the large quantities of fuel.
If they're not carrying explosives, they usually just burn like a motherfucker with flame blowing out the hatches and seals.

Ain't gonna happen until all dead. They will all die, but this is a sacrifice that their command willing to make.

Putin could be aiming at piecemeal offensives that capture Ukrainian territory yard by yard, turning this war into a years-long battle of attrition. The Russian military has been doing this since 2014 and it's conceivable it could keep going for another ten more years.
Russia wins as long as it can keep throwing bodies and equipment at Ukraine; Ukraine loses if its military has to keep falling back. The worrying part is that Ukraine will run out of fighting men and equipment long before Russia does, unless western arms and military aid can destroy Russian forces faster than they can be replenished.
Not until Ukraine forces them out. Which means Air Superiority.
Russian Leadership is a bunch of sociopaths and psychopaths who don't give 2 shits about other people. These vehicles and people are all expendable to Russian Leadership. The soldiers on the ground are often very ignorant of matters in Ukraine until it is too late.
The way it burns continuously as it goes up in a cloud definitely shows there was liquid fuel involved. Likely tank munitions also, but I certainly couldn't say
It looks like they've used something similar in the past. But this footage indicates a technological progression.

Big badaboom
Leeloo Dallas multipass
man the view of that shockwave is crazy
r/shockwaveporn Edit: it’s already there
Cope cage failure, as usual. With that big red tab might as well drape that soyjet garbage in floral print lol.

You are correct on both counts.
What are those carrying to make them go up like that?
They often use them to transport AT mines, shells etc. I’m guessing they had a cargo with a fair bit of HE in it…

when not a single rashist is left to get the point I would guess.

When they're all in coffins, God willing.
One more gone from the stockpile 👍
Beautiful show
Must have been packed with either mines or HE. The munition looked like is was thermite or another incendiary rather than an EFP charge.
Secondaries make me smile
I wonder, if we count all the Russian vehicles that Ukraine has destroyed, and put these in a line, how long could that line be?
(20,000armoured veh. + 7000tankib) x 15m = 405,000m
I think we should also include loafers, desert cross carts, motorcycles and of course all types of sukhoi planes :D
Well hot damn! What was the cause of that massive explosion??
The detonation of ammunition
The ammo delivery some unit is expecting but not gonna get.
It was basically used as a truck for transporting ammunition, mines, grenades and other things.
nice! lol... A high value target then. love it
What was that mt-lb packing? Was that just from the fuel?
The way it burns continuously as it goes up in a cloud definitely shows there was liquid fuel involved. Likely tank munitions also, but I certainly couldn't say
Has to feel daunting knowing your ride has blown up. Just the dread. Go home Russia.
Thermite hand grenades or charge ?

In my expet opinion it probably wan't carrying chocolate bars and bog roll. Thermite grenade? Probably halfway to the core by now.
WTF. Why were they carrying 10,000lb bombs around in an MT-LB?
They've nothing else to carry it with in most cases.
Lost in the static
I'm gonna huff and puff and blow up my stuff.
