That tanker helmet is known as a “Танковый шлем” or simply “Shlemofon” and it is exactly as you have described it. It is simply a padded fur hat with integrated radios that protects the wearers head from the hard surfaces in the crew compartment when they are bouncing around in the tank. That one is probably a TSh-4. It is a very common piece of equipment used by nations who still use Soviet equipment. Funnily enough the Russians have been parading around a new crew helmet but I’ve yet to see one show up in Ukraine. Western armies on the other hand adopted specially designed helmets in the 60s with integrated communications called “CVCH” which stands for “Combat Vehicle Crewman Helmet.” EDIT: Thanks to the folks who corrected me. CVCHs are in fact not bulletproof.
Apperantly one of the reasons why the Russian military are using so much outdated crap is due to corruption. The entire military structure are essentially a kleptocracy. So they design new impressive stuff but the funding to actually field that gear gets stolen on the way.
thank you, educator nerd! I would have been too lazy to look all of this up and you've now made a whole bunch of old images (and war movies) make sense
Former US Army here. CVCs aren't bulletproof. The shell might glance off a bullet if struck at an odd angle, but it is mostly there to protect one's head while inside the vehicle. The most common thing to happen inside an armored vehicle is hitting your head, from stuff like going over a bump or ditch in the road. Bashing your knee or elbow isn't fun, but the Army really doesn't like people hitting their heads. You don't always need an arm or leg, but every soldier needs their head.
depends on which CVC but in general they are spall proof but not bullet proof. Making them bulletproof would be both expensive and redundant, since the tank crews should be protected from bullets unless something has gone very wrong (like being ambushed while outside of the tank). It is meant to stop shrapnel from post-penetration spalling to some extent, which is more meant to allow the crew a higher chance of evacuating (if a mobility kill was not achieved) or bailing out successfully after being hit. Still better than a TSh which isn't even spall proof.

I am reminded of my parents' stories of how it was in Britain in WWII, where you might come across, say, two shops, which had lost their fronts, and one labelled 'open as usual' and the one next to it 'more open than usual.' We feel a closeness to the Ukrainian people for their stoicism and yet continual black humour. We love you guys.

@@leonieromanes7265 No joke: it is told that their military rations are expired decades ago. Would love to see this exhibition and search for some dates of expiry at the packages.😁
When I was there 30+ years ago, the German army had the kind of microphone that was not in front of the mouth, but worn around the neck and positioned over the larynx, also known as a "throat microphone", or "Kehlkopfmikrofon" in German. It felt a bit awkward at first, but worked surprisingly well, and was almost immune to ambient noise. I guess this was something similar.
Hello fella! So called throat microphone was a smart device introduced during WWII for german Panzer crews. It prevented microphone wire from being stuck into some pièce of equipment in the Crowded panzer turret: in such a way members of the crew could move more freely. In contrast to that, a Ruski T34 in its standard configuration , could only receive radio messages but not transmit them! Try to figure out what kind of mess it was in the battle field for ruski Panzer troops! Slava Ucraina! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

Hello Starsky, l can only repeat what SO many have already said,l admire your humour in difficult times, l have great respect for ALL Ukrainian people , you will win this war , but at a terrible price ! My heart is with you all ! Ex-soldier
What a beautiful sight it is to see those Russian tanks in the state they are! Not to mention the decorations to go along with them 🙂 Slava Ukraini 💙💛🇺🇦🇨🇦
It speaks well of the Ukrainian people viewing this that they are not joyful or amused, but solemn. There will be a future and living nearby in peace is the only way to live at all. Hopes for you!
In the US army tankers wear the ACVC or Advanced Combat Vehicle Crewman Helmet. It is similar to the Russian one in some ways with built in communications but is a hard shell like an infantry helmet and has some fragmentation protection. It is still mostly meant to stop you from hitting your head on a part of the tank and getting hurt though not combat.
As a former US Army linguist, and someone who speaks 6 languages, 3 in which I took and passed the DLPT's, I do have my bad language days, so, I totally relate to those days when it does not flow. That said, you recovered well, later in the video. SLAVA UKRAINI, HEROYAM SLAVA!
Bad language days are when you try to speak 3 simultaneously. I ended up speaking German to a Chinese staff member, Japanese to an Aussie and Chinese to the German. My brain was hurting.
Your English beats the hell out of my Ukrainian, and you are to be congratulated. Thankyou, and please keep up the good work, and, with your comrades, stay safe.
"this steak looks like a russian paratrooper I met the other day" Brutal man, love it. Thanks for all your hard work, in the field and on the internet. As for the Throat Mic, I know the US and Canada and Britan use them for certain soldiers ( I assume situations with a lot of ambient background noise)
At least he isn't showing that. During the Gulf war when the Iraqi forces tried to retreat from Kuwait en massed the whole colomn was attacked brutally. I remember reading a completely normal news article about it but to publish a picture of a burnt out skeleton was way over the top, the stuff of nightmares really.

Outstanding Operator Starsky! I like to think you had a hand in knocking out some of that shit out sir. As a former Cold War US paratrooper, I recall a sign at the end of the company street with a line drawn on the map from Ft. Bragg to Moscow, that read to the effect: “Be prepared to do your job! 8600 miles from Ft. Bragg to Red Square. If you’re not prepared, see your NCO!” There’s nothing move valuable in a firefight then a highly trained and motivated NCO Corps. Something the russkies will never learn or make the investment to achieve. Slava Ukraini Heroyam Slava
Starsky, you have outdone yourself on this video! Your videography, and very wry sense of humor accompanied with that music was fantastic! Slava Ukraini!
i agree. you can start making a website with all the things of orcs bombed or confiscated by Ukrainian.. pls million dollar missile landing in the beach toilet would be the cherry on the cake

Starsky, it's also a great morale boost for the Ukrainian people to see that their volunteer forces are still capable and fighting against the aggressor, and more importantly showing how easily they can be defeated. I also like they way you try to add a bit of humour to the videos, it shows that Ukrainians can still enjoy poking fun at their enemies.

Any idea what sort of plugs the Russian tank helmets use? I have an old East German NVA/DDR 1960s Tank helmet and it's basically a 5 pin style thing, I guess two pins for the headphones, two for the throat mics and one as a ground or similar. I'm just guessing in about 60 years the Russians didn't change the tech at all.
@@flitsertheo the ones in WWII didn't have the headsets for intercoms yet, and had 3 combs on them. the headsets came with the 4m I believe, which had 4 combs on top and 4 pin plug
almost all military comms gear is the 5-pin type, easier to replace the plugs and wires, 2 wires for input, 2 wires for output, and if the fifth pin IS actually wired (most often times not) it is a ground.
What plugs? The only plugs that work in Russian tanks are the vodka bottle plugs, and even those unreliably. My old man was born in the USSR and served in the "mighty" Soviet army in 1985-86, in Georgia. He says the intercoms never worked well. He was a commander on a T-62, the one with a loader. So, when my dad needed to give orders to the driver, he would slap the gunner's shoulders, who sat literally between his knees. And the gunner would kick on the back of the driver's compartment to signal go/stop/left/right directions. And it wasn't some boondocks tank battalion -- they were defending the border with Turkey.

I am reminded of my parents' stories of how it was in Britain in WWII, where you might come across, say, two shops, which had lost their fronts, and one labelled 'open as usual' and the one next to it 'more open than usual.' We feel a closeness to the Ukrainian people for their stoicism and yet continual black humour. We love you guys.
Eternal glory to those who stands up against tyranny ⭐
Slava Ukraine 🇸🇪💕🇺🇦
Thanks Starsky,, 🍻😎👍
This steak looks just like a Russian I met the other day, I spit my coffee out and almost choked from laughing. Love you guys humor and the goofy music goes perfect with this video. .Slava Ukraine!!! Much love and respect from the USA.
It looks like the Russians looted that food from the workers foodhall in Chernobyl. Lol.
Macabre but geez , also very funny , right?
@@leonieromanes7265 No joke: it is told that their military rations are expired decades ago. Would love to see this exhibition and search for some dates of expiry at the packages.😁
I wish Putler looked like that steak! 👍🇺🇦
Those little digs here and there get you when you least expect it lol.
Operator Starsky, your humorous comments are very informative! Stay safe!
When I was there 30+ years ago, the German army had the kind of microphone that was not in front of the mouth, but worn around the neck and positioned over the larynx, also known as a "throat microphone", or "Kehlkopfmikrofon" in German. It felt a bit awkward at first, but worked surprisingly well, and was almost immune to ambient noise. I guess this was something similar.
That type of micophone was used extensively by the crews in American aircraft in WWII because of the noise in their flying machines.
It's 100 years old tech. And still very useful today.
Same with British aircrews flying nuclear armed V-Bombers in the Cold War. My father had one.
@@damyr unfortunately
Hello fella!
So called throat microphone was a smart device introduced during WWII for german Panzer crews.
It prevented microphone wire from being stuck into some pièce of equipment in the Crowded panzer turret: in such a way members of the crew could move more freely.
In contrast to that, a Ruski T34 in its standard configuration , could only receive radio messages but not transmit them!
Try to figure out what kind of mess it was in the battle field for ruski Panzer troops!
Slava Ucraina! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
I admire the humor and wit you guys have there! cool idea with the tanks, I hope I'll be able to visit this year, cheers from Poland!
Really interesting programme today, thank you the operator Starsky. All the best to Ukraine, from Scotland Ucrain gu brath is Alba gu brath

The text commentary cracks me up. A great sense of humor you have Operator Starsky, love seeing your videos. Stay safe and take care.❤️ Glory to Ukraine!
Hello Starsky, l can only repeat what SO many have already said,l admire your humour in difficult times, l have great respect for ALL Ukrainian people , you will win this war , but at a terrible price ! My heart is with you all ! Ex-soldier
Thank you for sharing. Stay strong and take care
What a beautiful sight it is to see those Russian tanks in the state they are! Not to mention the decorations to go along with them 🙂 Slava Ukraini 💙💛🇺🇦🇨🇦
Just to make it better:
Most of those cost Russia about $1.4 million. Each.
Set up a twin museum in Moscow. Maybe the Russians would finally figure it out.

It speaks well of the Ukrainian people viewing this that they are not joyful or amused, but solemn. There will be a future and living nearby in peace is the only way to live at all. Hopes for you!
I love you humor. Please stay strong, and stay safe. Love from Italy
Love and prayers Glad you get to show off all the trophies 🏆 stay safe!! America 🇺🇸 stands with Ukraine 🇺🇦!!!
In the US army tankers wear the ACVC or Advanced Combat Vehicle Crewman Helmet. It is similar to the Russian one in some ways with built in communications but is a hard shell like an infantry helmet and has some fragmentation protection. It is still mostly meant to stop you from hitting your head on a part of the tank and getting hurt though not combat.
Great keeping in touch, keep safe and keep broadcasting. Australia is your friend
There is a similar exebition in a Finnish forest where the soviets failed to invade, seems like the quality has stayed the same.
As a former US Army linguist, and someone who speaks 6 languages, 3 in which I took and passed the DLPT's, I do have my bad language days, so, I totally relate to those days when it does not flow. That said, you recovered well, later in the video. SLAVA UKRAINI, HEROYAM SLAVA!
Bad language days are when you try to speak 3 simultaneously. I ended up speaking German to a Chinese staff member, Japanese to an Aussie and Chinese to the German. My brain was hurting.
Dumb tests of the US army like IQ. Doesn't prove much of proficiency or "intelligence".🤣
@@internetcensure5849 Go step on a LEGO.
Your English beats the hell out of my Ukrainian, and you are to be congratulated. Thankyou, and please keep up the good work, and, with your comrades, stay safe.
0:40 I like that they added a "sharp edges" warning sign. When this is the biggest threat originating from a Russian tank... it's a good tank!
"this steak looks like a russian paratrooper I met the other day" Brutal man, love it. Thanks for all your hard work, in the field and on the internet.
As for the Throat Mic, I know the US and Canada and Britan use them for certain soldiers ( I assume situations with a lot of ambient background noise)
At least he isn't showing that. During the Gulf war when the Iraqi forces tried to retreat from Kuwait en massed the whole colomn was attacked brutally. I remember reading a completely normal news article about it but to publish a picture of a burnt out skeleton was way over the top, the stuff of nightmares really.
Thanks Starsky! We also all needed that just about now too. Nice work, good timing.
"This steak reminds me of a Russian Paratrooper I met the other day" Slava Ukraini!

Typical Ukrainian humour!
Starsky definitely has a talent for comedy and sarcasm which is well appreciated and admired by those who are far away from Ukraine and hoping for them in defending their homes and country.
Pretty light hearted piece! Necessary for people to see what’s being/been used in this horrible war. Slava Ukraine!!
Why not expose US involvement in Ukraine since 2013, genocide on people in Russian speak regions since 2014 ?
Truth are out there.
Go take your salo, you lost it, hohol. Slava Rossii!!!
Your humour and courage in the face of such adversity is so admirable. 🙂💪
Much ❤ to Ukraine 🇺🇦 from Oz 🇦🇺
Awesome video. Thank you Operator Starsky for showing us this exhibition!
Ukraine is freakin' legendary and so are you Operator Starsky. I cannot wait to see what your people make of your country in the future. You are all so greatly admired by people around the world. Stay safe. Condolences for Anton.

Many thanks for your interesting report, Operator Starsky. You will soon have some vintage Russian T62 tanks to put on show! Victory to Ukraine!🇺🇦Slava Ukraini!🇺🇦
This Steak, great humor and your English is quite good, so don't be hard on yourself. I'm subscribing, keep up the good work you do.
Thank you your amazing. All of your brave country men and women have captured our hearts. Glory to Ukraine from UK 💙💛
Your paratrooper joke made me laugh, shot tea out of my nose and started a major coughing fit, but worth it. Lol. Slava Ukraine
Right there with you brother. I was drinking milk it was not pretty! Haha 😄
Thank you again, Sir, for your updates.
Be safe and stay well.
You nearly bloody killed me!! I had just got a mouthful of tea when you described what that steak reminded you of 😂😂😂. Needless to say I half choked myself whilst spraying the rest of the water everywhere lol.
Love your reports
Glory to Ukraine, god bless our soldiers !!!
"I wouldnt touch this crap with a stick its a crime" made me spit my Coffee!
Brilliant as usual Operator Starsky. Stay Strong, Stay Safe, Stay Free 🇬🇧🇺🇦
These are Ukrainian wrecked tanks. Ukrainians are Nazis and Fascists.
Your presentations are so good, you make everything interesting, funny and heartwarming. Thanks to you, I feel close and connected to the crisis facing Ukraine. Thousands of miles away, I care deeply for your people and culture. My heart is with Ukraine.
Starsky, now you know the turrets were made to fly sky high, lol.
Your humor is always awesome. I wouldn’t touch that nasty “food” with a stick either.
Thank you for sharing, stay safe!!
The turrets are built to fly to the moon it seems with the tragic rotary system! I suppose it's quite a quick death for the crew which is a small mercy at least
Always looking forward to your remarkable videos! A nice mix of the humor with the informative! Hoping you're staying safe and taking wonderful care always! Long live the strength and freedom of Ukraine 🇺🇦 🙏 👏👏🙇♂️
A fine exhibition on why Russians should spend money on improving the quality of life of its own people instead of weapons of war. Hopefully all that scrap can be recycled and used in the reconstruction. Love and respect to all the defenders of Ukraine there is a bright future for your country. Stay safe and keep up the fight. Slava Ukraini! Heroyam Slava!
" omg I touch it" love these videos. Humor and you learn something every time.
Outstanding Operator Starsky!
I like to think you had a hand in knocking out some of that shit out sir.
As a former Cold War US paratrooper, I recall a sign at the end of the company street with a line drawn on the map from Ft. Bragg to Moscow, that read to the effect:
“Be prepared to do your job!
8600 miles from Ft. Bragg to Red Square.
If you’re not prepared, see your NCO!”
There’s nothing move valuable in a firefight then a highly trained and motivated NCO Corps.
Something the russkies will never learn or make the investment to achieve.
Slava Ukraini
Heroyam Slava
Starsky, you have outdone yourself on this video! Your videography, and very wry sense of humor accompanied with that music was fantastic! Slava Ukraini!
i agree. you can start making a website with all the things of orcs bombed or confiscated by Ukrainian.. pls million dollar missile landing in the beach toilet would be the cherry on the cake
Starsky you are an amazing man! I enjoy your orc exhibit. I hope your, “museum,” becomes the largest museum in the world.
To all the brave soldiers that fight and have fought for freedom.❤️
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 💙💛❤️🇺🇦🇺🇸❤️
your humor is sorely needed for such tragedy. stay safe
Literally was there a couple of hours ago, and now you make a video about it, what are the chances. Слава Україні!
In fact, I daydreamed today about exactly this" making a theme park out of the destroyed tanks!! So I open YT and see this great video!
I imagine many cities will save one tank to make a memorial in the public square, and the rest will be melted down at the new Asovstaal plant!
Did you see the Tochka U missile also?
@@daviddoran3673 yes

@@elevendashlies6273 And also Putin is not tryng to "delete culture"
LoL that was extremely enjoyable!! You guys have the best sense of humor in this horrible situation. Much love and support to Ukraine!!
Starsky, it's also a great morale boost for the Ukrainian people to see that their volunteer forces are still capable and fighting against the aggressor, and more importantly showing how easily they can be defeated. I also like they way you try to add a bit of humour to the videos, it shows that Ukrainians can still enjoy poking fun at their enemies.
... and their underwear... (poke poke...)
What a wonderful sight! Thank you for your great work, Starsky. Freedom for Ukraine. Slava Ukraini.
I honestly laughed so hard when you touched the “remains” of the the orc underwear, like ew!
Love your videos, glad I found this channel.
Much love from Ireland 🇮🇪
Slava Ukrayini
I believe they call singlets and t shirts underwear .it's how they translate but probably boxer shorts and jocks too maybe .
You know underwear jokes are universal
Operator Starsky should wash his hands in bleach after touching those.😁
The Irish were separatists once too, weren't they? But for a fool, this fact does not matter at all)))
The Irish suffered for their right to survive just like Ukraine does now.
You don’t need to be a fool to see what is happening in Ukraine is inherently wrong.
Our National story is quite similar to Ukraine only one was 100 years ago before the international system and laws, therefore the crimes committed against the Irish went unpunished. Ukraine has the entire world behind them and I’m sure they will be successful.
Thanks so much for the great clip of Kyiv ! The world really admire the tenacity of Ukrainians and army who have been trying to keep their homeland and not letting the devil invaders Putin and Russians invading Ukraine !
Righteousness will triumph over evil !

You should hurry off and get another Booster.
Any idea what sort of plugs the Russian tank helmets use? I have an old East German NVA/DDR 1960s Tank helmet and it's basically a 5 pin style thing, I guess two pins for the headphones, two for the throat mics and one as a ground or similar.
I'm just guessing in about 60 years the Russians didn't change the tech at all.
60 years ? I think they were wearing those already in WW2, and probably before too. Though not all tanks had radio's back then.
@@flitsertheo the ones in WWII didn't have the headsets for intercoms yet, and had 3 combs on them. the headsets came with the 4m I believe, which had 4 combs on top and 4 pin plug
I gave a helmet from the eighties and it has the five pin connector.
almost all military comms gear is the 5-pin type, easier to replace the plugs and wires, 2 wires for input, 2 wires for output, and if the fifth pin IS actually wired (most often times not) it is a ground.
What plugs? The only plugs that work in Russian tanks are the vodka bottle plugs, and even those unreliably.
My old man was born in the USSR and served in the "mighty" Soviet army in 1985-86, in Georgia. He says the intercoms never worked well.
He was a commander on a T-62, the one with a loader. So, when my dad needed to give orders to the driver, he would slap the gunner's shoulders, who sat literally between his knees. And the gunner would kick on the back of the driver's compartment to signal go/stop/left/right directions. And it wasn't some boondocks tank battalion -- they were defending the border with Turkey.
0:40 - oh no, it pooped on the town square. Maybe it got scared? 😆
Good to see you again Starsky. Nice exhibition.
Take care, stay safe!
I love how you all call the Russian soldiers "Orcs," 😆 it's a perfect analogy.
@pinned-by Operator Starsky 🇺🇦• fake
Orcs when they are on duty, gopniks when they go home on leave and get to wear their Adidas track suits again.
Check out the etymology, Orc actually means 'living dead'... so 'Z' is for Zombie.
