Kamikadze tanks with remote control: what can be surprised by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation by applying the technique of the 80s

Even during the Soviet era, the military conducted tanks with a remote control system. Potentially, such systems can be used to manage Kamikadze tanks up to 2 km, military experts said. For the first time since the beginning of a full-scale invasion, the Russian invaders have used the so-called tank-Kamikadze, sending towards the positions of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces T-55, filled with explosives.

Although the episode was unsuccessful, the enemy can continue such a practice by applying old equipment with remote management. What the Russians can do in this direction are said in Defense Express. The observers say that the previous time the invaders used the T-55 tank with explosives, simply sending it to the positions of Ukrainian troops with a fixed gas pedal.

However, it should be noted that the Russians have a remote control system for the Soviet era tanks, which have been tested since the 1980s. For example, in 1982, testing a remote control tank T-54 was conducted-the system made it possible to start the engine, start traffic, rotate and stop the machine at a distant distance. Similar systems were also developed to T-72 tanks, although the management range could not surprise something.

"The control unit was installed at the place of the driver mechanic, the teams were served on the radio, the control range was 1-2 kilometers," the observers write. In addition, there is information that such systems had problems with communication in the conditions of overload of the radio control channel - only one tank could be controlled remotely. Thus, in the article of 1985, the authors AI Lukyanov and Ya. D.

Lyubyshkin write that in 1981 and 1983, units of 15-20 cars (total 120), which imitated counter-attacks forces in 1981 and 1983, had been completed from remotely controlled tanks. enemy. "Individual management of each target is impossible, due to the large loading of troops communication channels that are involved in the battle (training). Machines are allowed in groups and then driven from a gyroscopic block," the publication reads.
