Wow, this shows absolutely no understanding of how ERA works. Let's pretend for a second that the light steel in a truck is enough to protect against the backfire of an ERA brick. It's not, but let's pretend. Even then, only the door would be protected, everything else that's on glass, which all of it pretty much is would backfire into the truck cabin. It's like sticking grenades all over your truck.

Reminds me of the woman who plastered colourful pebbles all over her steering wheel, making her airbag a personal claymore

It looks like they’ve backed the bricks with more steel

What I can't figure out is who is giving all these guys a shit-ton of ERA.

I guess maybe they're stripping knocked-out tanks of any remaining ERA.

Often they are fake, and just filled with cardboard. Corrupt Russia at its best.

Uh, idk about the side panels of that truck, but that glass sure as shit isn’t strong enough to handle the ERA going off. That’s a death sentence for anyone in the cabin.

Believe it or not, they are probably dummy explosives, just to give soldiers psychological support..

Real ones would kill the people inside.
