Holy shit, this is what it looked like!? I saw the wikipedia article posted recently, and was wondering if there where any pictures.
The article only specifies “makeshift composite armor plating”, which made me think it was just some steel plates.
But no wonder over 200 rounds of ammunition and three explosions had no effect. No wonder they briefly considered using an airstrike or an anti-tank missile to stop it.
It also looks to me like he was always planning to die inside, I don’t see any way to get the shell off again.
Once the armor was lowered onto the dozer, there was no way out. He knew it was a suicide mission.
