阿怡：实际测试下来想靠特别多的625内功硬抗FPV这件事，对抗下来得出结论就是异想天开。

阿怡: 一个旅4到8辆625去抗FPV，对抗之后得出结论是抗不了。但是如果你是拿激光去抗的话效果会好一点。

I recall his point was about cost- with so few 625 systems, even in a scaled-down version, there's no way to cover such a vast drone defense area.
Read the transcript I saved. If what you said is true, he wouldn't say laser got better results.
Yes, I listened to that podcast episode, and I remember the context I described being mentioned. In fact, I just rechecked—it appears exactly one minute before your timestamp (starting at 34:10).
Their logic goes like this: To counter massed low-altitude, slow, small drones (FPVs), the proposed solution involves mass-deploying Type 625 systems → but their high unit cost forces downgrades for brigade-to-platoon/company deployment: radar removal (EO/IR sensors only), missile performance reduction → resulting in degraded air defense effectiveness (‘内功’不够). Yet even with these drastic compromises, fielding them in large numbers remains prohibitively costly.
The PLA's current solution is to deploy lower-cost platforms for distributed firepower—which brings us to the focus of this episode: the three variants of the 'Mengshi' armored vehicles.

A 25mm round is ridiculously overpowered for an FPV drone, completely wrong system for it unless you can airburst the rounds.
They are saying 4-8 625s cannot handle the FPV defense workload for a whole brigade, not 625 cannot handle FPVs.
Yeah but the cool factor is worth the tax payer money.
But I think the logic is that if it's a mini gun, it can be used as the Commander weapon station and there's less clutter on the top of the tank which is a big deal. Bird shot would be an additional item as it's not sufficient enough for commander weapon. I know the mini gun will have a lot more bulk but being the only turret on top means no blind spots for drones to abuse too.

Photos of the alleged "Double Absurd" (Shuang Lipu) tank have surfaced during parade rehearsals.
No this is triple absurd lmao, this thing looks like its out of those 2000s sci fi movies with
PS: This IMO looks like a CGI model pasted onto a real picture ngl
