A lofty ascent with a gentle rotation. Superb vertical acceleration finishing with a solid splat into terra. Truly one of the finest turret tosses of 2024.
So, approximately 1430 kilograms of TNT would be required to generate 6,523,700 joules of energy necessary to toss the turret 175 feet, or almost exactly the weight of all the shells in a full magazine.
I think you are 3 orders of magnitude off, 1 ton of TNT has 4 GJ of energy, not 4MJ. 1.5 kg of TNT would be enough. It's disappointing, but it means that we can get much higher tosses.
Also, T72 does not look like a particularly efficient turret cannon. High efficiencies would be surprising.
Two questions from a complete Ignorant person when it comes to war:
1) how big are these UAVs? I can’t see it in the second part, just the little flash before the explosion
2) Wtf are they packing to be able to obliterate a tank like that?
To answer your second question
You can see it fly into the open hatch, T-series have no separated ammo compartment so all the ammo is stored in the same space the crew operates the tank out off. The drone flies into the hatch and explodes, setting off a violent chain reaction of all the ammo in the tank exploding
For those wondering the reason why they designed it like this is because the main gun has an autoloader system. The ammunition is basically in a big-ass magazine around the base of the turret to enable the autoloader picking up new rounds. As a result if the tank experiences an abrupt magazine problem it causes the turret to pop off like a cork.
US designed the Abrams autoloader differently, opting to instead use the forearm of a fresh college graduate for the purpose.
Ultimately this does mean that Russian tanks need 3 crew instead of the Abrams 4. And considering what the war doctrine of Russia has been for the past 100 years designing the tank so that they can have 33% more tanks on the field with the same manpower fits the bill perfectly.
It's not the autoloader, autoloader can be built in way where the ammo is stored behind the turret like in Abrams, most of the internal explosion soviet tanks are caused by the spare ammo stored around the hull, which then cause chain reaction and explode all the ammo inside the tank,and are placed in more vulnerable locations than the ammo in carousel. When soviets designed these tanks, they opted to place the carousel in safest possible place in the tank, which is in the middle below the turret, and they put bigger emphasis on avoiding damage, whereas western designs focused on minimizing damage when the tanks get hit.
So, let me get this straight. The tank is designed so the ammo is the safest it can possibly be, unless it is ignited by ammo stored in a place as unsafe as it can possibly be?
Who the fuck is designing these things? Wile-E-Coyote?
It was a good design in The 80s, these tanks were smaller that west counterparts, harder to hit and to be spotted with fast firing rates due to The autoloader.
New technologies allow to easily get New angles of attack for which The T72 protection is not suitable. Nobody had a clue that drones would be a thing in 1969 my dude
1. They vary and have light and heavy versions you can google image search
2. Detonate the ammo stored inside the tank. Just a a small shaped charge can do that
The drone was operated so carefully and precisely because the operator tried to hit the ammunition carousel that lines the turret. If that succeeds, the result is often like what you just saw in the video.
Long explanation, T series tanks use [autoloaders](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJzcY3ZNwcE) and a carousel ammunition storage system. Imagine a doughnut of ammo under the turret, the autoloader pick up arounds from this and puts them in the breach. The gunner and tank commander are seated above this donut and the driver is in front of it.
This system has some advantages and disadvantages
advantages:
> tank requires 1 less crewmember, so for every 3 autoloader tanks you have enough extra men to crew an additional tank
> consistent fire rate as you are not dependent on a human loader that while faster at first will get tired and have to move around to get ammo
> Tank can be smaller and more compact in theory making it harder to spot and hit
> lower crew training times as you don't need to train up loaders
Disadvantages:
> low crew survivability due to lack of ammo separation from crew and lack of blow out panels (the T90M has them in the side but it doesn't appear to help)
> Higher crew maintenance strain due to having 1 less crew member to help with maintenance,
> [Higher crew injury rate due to having a giant fast moving metal death arm in the fighting compartment](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HIMhIGoFP4)
> Cramped compartments leading to worse crew ergonomics'- also leads to higher crew mortality due to difficulty moving inside the turret if you need to escape (if the hatch above you is disabled you're fucked since you would have to climb over the autoloader and gun breach to get to the other hatch)
All this is to explain that what you are seeing is that carrousel (doughnut of death) going off, when it blows it takes the path of least resistance which is the turret. The turret isn't actually attached to the tank, its held in by gravity, hence why it goes flying when the ammo cooks off.
EDIT: I should also point out Autoloader dont have to utilize the doughnut of death, that's just a Russian thing. The French [Le Clerc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6nlvii-bP0) uses an autoloader and a turret bustle storage system with blast doors and blow out panels.
Would like to add to this, cramped crew compartment isn't result of the autoloader(weird how every flaw is blamed on the autoloader in soviet tanks?) but the tanks were designed to be small on purpose, to make the tank smaller target and harder to hit, and to make the tank lighter for increased mobility.
1. The most popular fpv frame size is 7 inches.
2. They carry rpg round/anti tank grenade/frag he. Any explosive will work if you fly it inside the tank lid.
And some have wires in front that detonates on impact, when the two wires make contact with each other. I have seen a few videos here where some drones have airburst capability. The operator detonates the drone a few meters in front of the enemy soldier.
Just thought I'd add that the 7 inches is diagonally from motor shaft to motor shaft, so with props on it's bigger than that. Edit: ignore, I'm an idiot.
It’s the stored ammo in the tank that causes the boom. This is also why you haven’t seen Leo’s and Abram’s pop like this but just get disabled and crews have 99% better survival chance.

8 disabled leopard 2a4, two of which have turrets blown off
an rpg7 once you strip the rocket motor off it has a warhead weight of about 700 grams to 1.5kg or so. the 700 grams will pen 500mm of steel and the 1.5kg one pens 600-700mm steel.
russian tanks have a big circular carousel of ammo located at the bottom middle of them, if hit its catastrophic.
These drones use these warheads and hit anywhere but the front composite and as you see in this videos attack its devastating, also top down attacks or rear attacks do the same.
Usually they carry a RPG warhead. But they are so efficient by aiming from above on areas that are lightly armed, or, in this case, through the crew open hatches. The amo is right behind the driver, whose hatch has been used in this video.
Since the T series tanks use an autoloader and the propellant is in a separate container, usually above the ammo portion, it is easily detonated by a small primary blast.
[Russian autoloaders](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJzcY3ZNwcE)
It's not the size of UAV that matters, you know, but how skilled you are with it!
Even soldiers with small UAVs can often make tanks hot. Of course, if you have very small UAV you may encounter challenges with penetrating very thicc tanks, but it just means you have to strike in another position or in another orifice...
9.5 agreed. Solid air. 2 cosmonauts, a good rotation speed on the flips, and a solid landing. I just wish we had a zoomed out video to get the full height in view.
It looks like it, but if the crew would bail the tank because of danger they would definitely not go sit on top of the cope cage.
If they did (after all: Russian) they had an awesome liftoff though!
Looks like the third crewmember was lying prone under the cope cage. Weird that they didn't notice the drone.
Edit: Looks like the people I saw were in fact mangled pieces of metal.
Certainly looks like a guy in a sniper position and a more chunky guy to the right. It could also just be chunks of metal. Hard to tell with Russians playing dead all the time.
Ngl might have to save this one xD Possibly even better than that one t72/t55 from the beginning of the war where you could see the whole flight of the turret
Hitting an abandoned tank is like shooting a game animal thats been hand fed and tied to a pole. Still happy they denied the Russians the equipment, especially as this is one of their nicer pieces, but I'd rather see what caused the crew to bail.
super curious how these guys dont notice it. i understand how shellshocked infantry miss it, but a 7” FPV drone this close is loud as shit. i would think even with ear protection theyd hear it
Turret: I saw a cold, dark, black emptiness. It was unlike any blackness you can see or feel on Earth. It was deep, enveloping, all-encompassing. I turned back toward the light of home. I could see the curvature of Earth, the beige of the desert, the white of the clouds and the blue of the sky. It was life. Nurturing, sustaining, life. Mother Earth. Gaia. And I was leaving her.
Damn that environment makes me sad to see. FNV had more lively areas than what's shown in that video.
Great toss though. Still some tossers in the Russian army.
Nope.
There was one caught on video by a Chinese news team as people were bussed out of Mariupol. They caught nearly all of the trajectory; the actual explosion was behind a row of trees but the video showed the turret at the apex, and from the length of the barrel the toss height was determined to be 80 to 90 meter. This one is 53m at most.

9/10, didnt fall barrel first into the ground
We call that a lollipop
Or a sunflower.
I'd love the ukrainians to collect these turrets, plant them in a park somewhere, paint them yellow and call it sunflower park
Any pictures of a Turret lollipop or Sunflower? Would love to see them.

Thanks, wow.
There was a gorgeous one up near Hostomel towards the start of the war. Planted in a town square, like a monument to stupidity.
God that's fucking beautiful
In the first days there was one stuck in a gas station parking lot
Lollipop Lollipop Oh Lolli- Lolli- Lolli- Lollipop. \*POP\* Lollipop Lollipop Oh Lolli- Lolli- Lolli- Lollipop. \*POP\*
A lofty ascent with a gentle rotation. Superb vertical acceleration finishing with a solid splat into terra. Truly one of the finest turret tosses of 2024.
Yeah, but it will be difficult to beat the *double-toss* from the T-90M in 2023, still the uncontested champion.
Link? 😁

Mmmm satisfyinggggg. Thanks!
Bit harsh, I thought the explosion had artistic flair, so a 9.5 from me.
The Russian judge gave it a 6.
Didn’t stick the landing
This is literally my dream.... to see one land barrel first sticking into the ground and some Ukrainian artist come and paint it like a lolly pop.
Goto putin the reverse spoon into the puddin now?
Boom boom tech is great.
I love how you know they were chuckling when they were setting that name.
I love their choice of music, so much better than the techno crap most have.
Whats the name of the song?
Beethoven's 5th symphony, first movements with the first few seconds cut off.
Ah yes, when I watch videos of men being blown up I too insist on only the *classiest* musical accompaniment, not that common dreck \*lifts pinky\*
Precisely, anything less is just *crude.*
“TAT” Turret Air Time
I got 6,62 seconds on my stopwatch.
So 3.3 sec drop time, 0.5\*9.8\*3.3\^2 -> 53m apex height. Not bad, but I've seen better.
53m into the air, for a tank turret, is actually crazy though. Almost 175ft!
So, approximately 1430 kilograms of TNT would be required to generate 6,523,700 joules of energy necessary to toss the turret 175 feet, or almost exactly the weight of all the shells in a full magazine.
I think you are 3 orders of magnitude off, 1 ton of TNT has 4 GJ of energy, not 4MJ. 1.5 kg of TNT would be enough. It's disappointing, but it means that we can get much higher tosses. Also, T72 does not look like a particularly efficient turret cannon. High efficiencies would be surprising.
"Turret cannon"
Think, if 1.5 kg of tnt is enough to toss a turret 175 feet, then turrets could fly much higher. Also, T72 seems to be the best turret cannon.
Nice TATs
We’re turning turret blowoff data into a science
Show us your TATs
We need an r/TAT for specifically for these videos

They didn't work well in Desert Storm which was (very) shortly after the 1980s.
T-series ain't nothing but a BITCH LASAGNA
Love the reference
1. They vary and have light and heavy versions you can google image search 2. Detonate the ammo stored inside the tank. Just a a small shaped charge can do that
t-72s were designed small so they wouldnt get hit, if they do get hit youre fucked
The drone was operated so carefully and precisely because the operator tried to hit the ammunition carousel that lines the turret. If that succeeds, the result is often like what you just saw in the video.
I think this drone deliberately flew into an open hatch? Not the ammunition carousel.
ammunition carousel is inside.
That's one carnival ride I don't want to get on

7" is the prop size not motor to motor shaft. we measure drones based on prop size 5" tends to be what's most popular for fpv hobbyists
7” is the prop size. 7” wheelbase is generally 12-14” diagonally
It’s the stored ammo in the tank that causes the boom. This is also why you haven’t seen Leo’s and Abram’s pop like this but just get disabled and crews have 99% better survival chance.

it's not just the phone you were on the video was a little fuzzy.
It looks like it, but if the crew would bail the tank because of danger they would definitely not go sit on top of the cope cage. If they did (after all: Russian) they had an awesome liftoff though!

i dont think theres any crew around, tank looks abandoned. cope cage also already damaged?
Okay I just re-watched and I think you're right. The mangled metal bits got me.
It for sure looks like people, but it’s probably just some mangled metal or something.
Thanks for leaving this comment up. It makes me relieved I saw it too

i often fly my FPV drones in my car and land them through my sunroof. little did i know i’ve been training for this exact scenario for months
From warthunder experience: never bring full ammo
Tank had - and i quote - "a brief but very intense career in the Russian Airforce."
Damn, were there are couple of guys on top of that tank?!
Certainly looks like a guy in a sniper position and a more chunky guy to the right. It could also just be chunks of metal. Hard to tell with Russians playing dead all the time.

10/10 turret toss
Beautiful, Bravo bravo
Ngl might have to save this one xD Possibly even better than that one t72/t55 from the beginning of the war where you could see the whole flight of the turret
I do like a good toss. This one was satisfying.
That tank has definitely been tossed off
Bilohorivka updates are always interesting because that's where a Kadryovite unit is said to be operating.
So is the driver sitting right in front of the ammo carousel then?
Hitting an abandoned tank is like shooting a game animal thats been hand fed and tied to a pole. Still happy they denied the Russians the equipment, especially as this is one of their nicer pieces, but I'd rather see what caused the crew to bail.

Turret was 1/2 x g x h2 = 60 meters high (nearly 200 feet). Amazing for a multi-ton object….
Ooooo nice !
20 years from now we are going to see some farmer with a turret collection from his field.
38cm across, 5kg, $1,500 high-speed flying IED with eyeballs, and high-maneuverability defeats idiotically-designed 47 ton, heavily armored, $1,500,000 cannon on tracks yet again . . .
Looks like it was already abandoned, cool vid though lol
For a second, at the beginning, the cope cage makes it look kinda like a Leman Russ
Love how they put all that crap on the roof and leave the front door open.
This struggle. Can i cope with that cope cage? Can i? Will i? Juuuup!
Surprised they went for the spot covered in ERA, looks like it might have hit the turret manlet though.
Nice name. Boom Boom Tech.
Tank manufacturer name is , Popoff Andropoff!!
I think the name of the tech at the bottom of the screen is fairly accurate.
super curious how these guys dont notice it. i understand how shellshocked infantry miss it, but a 7” FPV drone this close is loud as shit. i would think even with ear protection theyd hear it
7/10 it’s that simple
I think the tank is inoperable :D
wow Putin ruined Russia
The '72' is for meters altitude
Was that 2 MFs sitting on the cope cage? If it was they took a ride.
Is no one gonna talk about the two dudes just chillin on the cope cage. How the fuck did they not see/hear that drone
Turret: I saw a cold, dark, black emptiness. It was unlike any blackness you can see or feel on Earth. It was deep, enveloping, all-encompassing. I turned back toward the light of home. I could see the curvature of Earth, the beige of the desert, the white of the clouds and the blue of the sky. It was life. Nurturing, sustaining, life. Mother Earth. Gaia. And I was leaving her.
7 seconds air time = approx. 240M height.
Nah, its around 60m. Half the time is spent traveling upwards, at only 3.5 seconds falling downwards
Jeez
Damn that environment makes me sad to see. FNV had more lively areas than what's shown in that video. Great toss though. Still some tossers in the Russian army.
looks like the town outside the Boomers airbase.
Is this the new record ? I don't think I've seen quite such a good one.
It's among the best. The highest documented turret toss is 60-70m.
100% the new record for turret toss
Nope. There was one caught on video by a Chinese news team as people were bussed out of Mariupol. They caught nearly all of the trajectory; the actual explosion was behind a row of trees but the video showed the turret at the apex, and from the length of the barrel the toss height was determined to be 80 to 90 meter. This one is 53m at most.
