>cope cage 2.0
you love to see it

Why does it look like that the netting doesn't cover the top? Not like the netting does anything of course, but why wouldn't the subhumans even pretend to something properly?

While they were ineffective against bombs falling almost vertically, walls and dams designed to prevent the spread of fire might be useful today.

Designing fire breaks could be very useful, but the Russians are Russians. Although we as pigdog westerners ought to start considering firebreaks between strategic reserve tanks.

Those are actually useful though,compared to cope cages
Obviously not in case a of a direct hit from above but it will stop at least some of the fragments in case of a near miss

What use are the cope cages anyway (besides grift) if any payload bigger than a handgrende will puncture them even if the drone explodes on the net

the wehrmact at the end of ww2 was doing much better to defend their synfuel production facilities with the 8.8.
why cant putin bother to take AAA out of the soviet reserves like he does for tanks

OSHA and other safety standards mandate far safer storage operations in western countries than in Russia.

>>65238728
Fire nets are enough cumrade

The fire cannot LEGALLY enter the area which has been caged.

The Russo-Ukrainian War, and the massive losses being taken by IDF armor in Southern Lebanon, have demonstrated that combined arms warfare as we know it is completely obsolete. In Ukraine, artillery and drones and defensive lines in WW1 style attrition positional warfare has largely replaced tanks. The Israelis are likely to adopt similar tactics (as they did during the 1982-2000 occupation) using heavily fortified positions such as Beaufort castle once they dig in for the long haul.

Tanks will need to adapt to firing from fixed positions while using APS and cope cages to fend off FPV attacks. AA vehicles will need to be be 1/4 of any armored force. Large armored formations will need to practice dispersal again as they did during the Cold War under threat of tactical nuclear weapons. No one will be able to mass enough armor for a breakthrough or the swift mechanized maneuver actions that dominated mid to late 20th Century warfare. 73 Easting will be as relevant to the planners of today as Mars-la-Tour will be to Cambrai and Ypres

Why not put the tanks underground?

the future of warfare being gigantic robot mole vehicles would be pretty kino

>why not build homes out of stone in tornado alley
>why not build homes underground

It's just cheaper.

We don't have strategic reserve tanks in the USA the SPR is just pumped back into shallow salt formations, it's not even really visible from above ground.
