I'm not actually sure if these kinds of setups are very effective. I saw pics of a couple of Russian vehicles (think they were tanks or BMPs, not sure) a few months back that were absolutely decked out in this kind of stuff, so much netting and so many chains hanging off it that it almost looked like it was wearing a ghillie suit, and they both still got blown up. Admittedly it seemed to take several drones rather than just one, but that's still a very good trade in terms of production costs.
The more important thing, and something that the Russians seem to be getting better at (perhaps with the help of their new 50km-range fibre optic drones and practice at spotting them), is taking out the drone teams in the first place. Otherwise you're just never going to have meaningful freedom of movement anywhere near the line of contact, and no ability to concentrate forces.
It might just be a psychological thing. Western Allied tank crews in WW2 would stack sandbags on their tanks, which did absolutely nothing (probably made them even slower), but it made them feel more protected.
centimeteres between a charge and the armor do actually matter, this fucker doesn't have much armor in the first place but it's always going to be better to take an explosive from further than literally on you than not

Unironically suggesting the SKS as a usable rifle in the 21st Century when there are things like the AK and AR that cost only a bit more might result in a ban, it depends on how we feel.
Discussion of hunting is acceptable but please put "CW: hunting" in post titles. Debating the ethicality of hunting is also fine, but keep it civil and don't derail other people's threads.
