as it was said in the topic.

I’ve tried ramming it with my car but it shot me dead b4 i can reach it.  
Of long range, high penetration power and dreadful damage, those turrets already killed several characters. Actually how do u destroy them?

Another terrible new added drone tank also trolled me. Anyone met it b4?

nighttime or long range weaponry, or both, and that goes for the new turrets as well as the new bots.

Anti-tank weapons. Y’know, LAWs, RPGs, Plasma rifles…

Night time and a high powered rifle with armor piercing ammo at long range. Attack from somewhere you can get into cover in 1 turn if you can.

Tankbots go down ok to a LAW or other sort of rocket. Again, darkness is your greatest ally.

If you’re gonna try and ram a military barricade you’re gonna need one serious vehicle, the turrets tend to spawn behind the barricades.

Others have suggested things like Anti-Tank weapons but keep in mind, anything that explodes will likely blow up your precious .50 cal rounds. Smoke is only good until it wears off, and if you can’t see the turret or need to see it to kill it, it’ll kill you the second it gets a clear line of sight. Night’s good, but it’s worth mentioning EMP grenades.

Alternatively, do what I do:

Avoid checkpoints like the plague.

night time, but be careful of getting too close and of searchlights…  
alternatively, cloaking system…  
or emp/frag grenade from outside LoS.

unless you are a crack shot and can outsnipe them from afar, the other ways are !dangerous!

PS. i have heard (but not yet gotten to use) of an item called control laptop. craft it and use it…

Control laptop. Recipe can be found in lab notes or Robots for Fun and Profit. Needs a laptop, rechargeable battery mod, and hackPro. Very worth the cost. The best way to defeat a robot is to make it your friend.

What computers/electronics skill do you need? Does it have a chance to fail? Do they follow you like dogs? If you hack an eyebot and it summons Policebots, will they be friendly (probably not)? Will they even use special abilities?  
Would test myself but I try and do things legit and I cannot even last a day without a numpad, it irks me.

Also, as for OP’s question have you tried driving alongside a pillow roadway so you can jump out the car and ghost ride it into the turret like a badass?

Strap a external gas tank to a scooter get it up to speed and dive out as it coasts comfortably to the turret. You wanted to flatten an entire city block right?
