Alternative tank hunters in Ukraine

If you look closely, you can see not only Russian tanks on both sides of the battlefield in Ukraine, but also the inevitable pickups, as we know them extensively from the wars in the Middle East. They are used as fast liaison vehicles and tank hunters.

A Russian vehicle that introduced pickups. The Kornet ATGM is so fast at the focal point. The vehicle is of course not armored.

The counterpart among the Ukrainians can look like this. They have their Stugna ATGM mounted on pickups, as is often seen. The advantage is that fast, mobile tank hunter teams can be flexibly deployed at focal points.

Of course, things can also go wrong. Be it getting stuck in the Rasputiza ...

... or even getting shot. The advantage of being small, light, and fast is the disadvantage of being unprotected and unarmored.
