Ridiculous Russian BlyatBike Destroyed By Drone Strike
Published 3 months ago
An absurd improvised Russian battlefield technological development, the BlyatBike, has only been seen in photos until now. The BlyatBike is a motorcycle with a cope cage welded around it with the intention of protecting the rider from drone attacks. The bike shown in the video is promptly and easily destroyed by its first drone encounter.
While drone cages offer enclosed and armored vehicles added protection from strikes, there has been a complete oversight of common sense in this scenario, as the blast detonating anywhere on the cage is going to ensure the rider is showered with deadly and debilitating fragmentation. Additionally, the motorcycle's traits which make it useful on the battlefield in the first place: speed, small size, and maneuverability, are completely negated by the cumbersome cage. This is weaponized stupidity.
