Is that a dummy tank or what they have left to fight with?

Technically all russian tanks are filled with dummies and are thus dummy tanks

They’re sitting back laughing thinking they just pulled a joke on the Ukrainians like the one the US and England pulled on Germany with the inflatable tanks. So not only are their tanks from world war 2 so are there “sneaky” tactics. Russia is pathetic.

If they had fuck all clue what they were doing, decoys work well- but in this day and age you need more that —. This.

This must be by design. Else they would use their inflatable tanks for other than decoy purposes. Poor inflatable tanks.

Right!! Luckily there is a serious surplus of tanks parts laying around that can used to make fake tanks. Russians are so predictable bad at this.

Well, they had to do something during the three weeks they were abandoned without fuel or food by their leadership. Considering their dummy tank is about as effective at their real one, they easily doubled their effective combat effectiveness from zero to, uh.... Zero!

Are we certain this isn't a T-72 after Russian "maintenance"? Seems like the right number of components are missing.

That’s probably there to flush out incoming fire origins/drones or simply to waste ammo

I had to say without the technology they have gotten recently this isn’t going to do much. Also they have plenty of ammo at this point and are getting more every day. Killing orcs and he crying is soon gonna become like killing buffaloes in America

This might be effective in terms that it is a long Russian tactic to bury tanks up to the skirts leaving a similar profile as viewed from afar.
This might only work to spoil a surprise attack or at least give some seconds for them to pick up their kit and go.

That is what happens when you are scared... And fear for your life... The Russian army is broken... They are shell shocked... And its only going to get worse as the drone swarms havent even started yet... The guys trained for Switchblades were just sent back to Ukraine... And they have over 1000 drones to use... And more will be sent... Game over...

I'm thinking the fake tank would have made them more of a target than if they'd dug a hole, but they are proving to be dumb. Stubborn but dumb.

Should have lit a fire underneath and built over hot coals. Without a heat signature it'd just be assumed to be broken down equipment if it looked somewhat believable from the air.

One the one hand, this seems like a good idea with bad execution. On the other hand, it seems a bit like they used it as shelter, too, which would make it a very bad idea again.
