I think it depends on how well the modifications to Russian armor work?


The US and GB have both supplied the Ukrainian military with javelin anti-tank weapons. The javelin is designed to strike down on the top of the tank where the armor protection is weaker. The Russians have added cage like structures to the tops of their tanks. So I think it depends on how effective that countermeasure is against the javelin. It may turn out that the cage does nothing to protect the tank and only makes the job of the tank commander more difficult by forcing them to fight buttoned up? I’ll add that the Ukrainian Military is stronger than they have ever been.
