In that gap are normally mounted a whole bunch of dischargers for smoke and obscurant grenades. The ERA is oriented towards the forward arc, the stuf on the turret rear is a storage rack/bin (onto which ERA could be mounted) which might also help give some protection against AT-rockets if the bin makes the rocket (heat warhead) detonate at some distance from the actual turret steel.
But how come T-90 has an all round ERA protection and yet is also able to have smoke launchers?
