Drone video coming out of Ukraine today captures the moment a Tunguska AA System catches a roof knock from a falling 40mm grenade.

It appears as if the drone crew was aiming for the top hatch of the vehicle, however they seem to have missed and hit another component. I find it interesting that the commander of the vehicle decided to expose himself briefly following the roof knock from the 40mm grenade.

While the vehicle is most likely not seriously damaged, the tank commander could have easily been killed by a follow on grenade had the drone crew dropped a second.
