You should take a look into ¨Trophy¨ and Ïron Fist¨ hard kill active defense systems from Israel. Trophy is now being installed in Merkava Mk. IV tank in the production line. The idea is not bad, the fact is that hopefully this active defense systems and the tank´s armour will evolve to intercept faster and more powerful weapons. Don´t forget that, technically, tanks should had passed away after WWII since most leaders though that guided missiles were going to do all the dirty job. (Leading, in some cases to the fatal error of taking away planes´ machineguns) Excellent blog. Congratulations!!! Hello.

If one simply makes it blow up before it makes contact the energy will spread out greatly. Also what every is hitting it IE a curtain of tungsten flechlets it will furthermore misshapen the metal casing that is lined with the high explosives. If you see how other reactive armor works as in the case of the thin metal plate that blastes away from the tank to explode the ordinance early simulating a normal strike. I had once also seen one method for tanks that sensed with radar the incoming missile and would shoot off a few grenade like objects in to the area that the missile was coming and they would blast shrapnel downward far away from the tank. However all these methods are more dangerous to people outside the vehicle.
