Abrams was backing up to give RPG team another chance.

Oh cool, now you have a pissed off tank crew.

I assume that’s still no fun for the tankers inside?

The RPG is the luncher. What really matters is the rocket they fired. If it wasn’t armour piercing it was pointless.

You gotta admit that seems like it was a pretty impressive shot regardless of outcome(though the Abrams shrugging it off makes me happy)

Where’s the smoke around the turret coming from when the tank starts moving backwards, shortly before the 2nd explosion?

„lol only 85mm“
Jokes aside, can’t see the supporting infantry.

Isn’t there a case of a British Challenger getting stuck in Basra after taking multiple RPG and ATGM hits and the crew just stayed buttoned up and waited for help?

We can’t tell if it was truly *unscathed.*
Successful penetrations don’t actually leave much external damage; just a small clean hole through the armor.
Side shot on an Abrams hull with an 85mm HEAT round can indeed penetrate under favorable conditions – for all we know the crew may have suffered some spalling injuries inside the vehicle while remaining operational.

Look like a little too slow for an RPG.
