Japanese Type 10 tanks and Type 89 infantry fighting vehicles are equipped with anti-drone canopies to protect them from drone munitions. It's worth noting that this protection is no longer sufficient. The video shows tanks and infantry fighting vehicles from the 71st Tank Regiment and the 11th Mechanized Infantry Regiment of the Japan Self-Defense Forces during the AC-TESC exercise.
