There's also this Ukrainian report on the matter but it's in Ukrainian, so I'm sharing the Mastodon post in English.

While that might play a very small part on their strategy I don't think anyone in Ukraine thinks twice before shooting it should the situation really need it. It would make a nice trophy, agreed, but I think the mentality is that if it doesn't burn then nice and even if it does the charred remains are still a trophy and a big PR win via social media.

Yeah, I vote for charred remains of the cyber truck being displayed in Kyiv.
