Explosive reactive armour which is the most common type we are using.
As far as what I have learnt till now that Reactive armour also has following variations:
-Self limiting explosive reactive armour(SLERA)
-Non energetic reactive armour(NERA)
-Non-Explosive reactive armour(NxRA)
Unlike ERA and SLERA, NERA and NxRA can withstand multiple hits!?
I guess,that we need to work upon that!
NXRA and NERA offer repeated but less protection as they are not consumed on impact, ERA and SLERA offer more protection but consumed after one or sometimes, several hits. However, AK composite armour is known to have atleast two layers of NERA (rubber or some other composite) material.
