The Russian fighting vehicle was destroyed in Donetsk region. The video first shows the FPV drone flying into the tank, and then from a different angle shows the explosion.

The T-62MV was equipped with additional protection, which was popularly called a "brazier". It consists of grids welded onto the turret. Sometimes sandbags are thrown on top. This is supposed to protect the tank from Bayraktar TB2 drones and Javelin missiles.
