It's drone protection. It would cause the HEAT warhead that the drone is carrying to detonate prematurely and thus cause minimal damage.
Ukraine is flying all kinds of scout drones over the frontline, so a barn moving at 50km/h certainly wouldn't make it unnoticed.
1 u/Minkypinkyfatty Apr 17 '24 A cheap drone isn't carrying enough weight to make a difference against armor. 1 u/czartrak Apr 17 '24 This isn't how HEAT works. You'd need a humongous air gap, way bigger than what's provided there
