Tank Barely Registers a Scratch After Reactive Armor Saves It

An armored tank moving through the streets of Daraa, Syria in 2012 barely registers that it's been hit after its reactive armor detonates, defeating the device that attempted to kill it.


The video you're looking at here is a brief excerpt from a longer propaganda video released by the early Free Syrian Army operating out of Daraa, Syria in 2012. It shows a Regime tank moving through the streets and being struck by an improvised explosive device. Instead of taking damage however, the tank's ancient reactive armor system detonates pushing a steel plate in the direction of the blast and absorbing the impact before it can do any real damage to the vehicle.
