The advanced Kontakt-5 explosive reactive armour on this T-90S is arranged in pairs of plates, giving the turret its prominent triangular profile.. An element of explosive reactive armour (ERA) is made of either a sheet or slab of high explosive sandwiched between two metal plates, or multiple "banana shaped" rods filled with high explosive which are referred to as shaped charges.
The suit's main feature is its "high-impact reactive armor", an electrically powered armor system that, when charged, absorbs two-thirds of the damage that Gordon would ordinarily suffer in Half-Life and 80% in Half-Life 2. [citation needed] A fully charged suit can survive several dozen hits from small arms and even one direct hit from an RPG.

Due to the shortcomings of Kontakt-1, NII Stali developed a new type of reactive armor, Kontakt-5, so ...
Kontakt-1 (Russian: Контакт-1; GRAU indice: 4S20) is an explosive reactive armour (ERA) created in 1982 by Soviet NII Stali to protect tanks from shaped charges. The first tank with Kontakt-1 put into service was T-64BV in 1985. The system is still widely used by different countries within T-55, T-62, T-64, T-72, T-80 tank families among ...
The biological half-life (the average time it takes for the human body to eliminate half the amount in the body) for uranium is about 15 days. [6] The aerosol or spallation frangible powder produced by impact and combustion of depleted uranium munitions (or armour) can potentially contaminate wide areas around the impact sites, leading to ...
Non-explosive reactive armour is an advanced spaced armour which uses materials which change their geometry so as to increase protection under the stress of impact. Active protection systems use a sensor to detect an incoming projectile and explosively launch a counter-projectile into its path.
