In this video we look at common misconceptions about explosive reactive armor (ERA), namely that it does not explode as easily as the name suggests, that it is also used by Western countries, that the ERA panel explosion is actually far more dangerous for bystanders than a HEAT round exploding with practical insights from Prof. Paul Hazell (UNSW Canberra), that modern ERA also works against kinetic rounds and that one has to consider if fitting ERA is really a benefit for certain vehicles. Additionally, we also look at the basics of ERA as well.
