    So all the stories a couple of years ago, that their active armor failed was because corruption replaced it with cardboard, might not have been true?
    The actual active armor on Russian tanks simply doesn’t work!

      That was different. You’re thinking of the reactive armor pods, this is a active protection system. It is supposed to use radar to lock into small objects incoming threats like drones or rocket propelled grenades and destroy them by shooting them down.
