Protection of Armoured Vehicles from RPG Threats

RPG (rocket propelled grenade) are widely used today in conflict areas and became a major threat to the armoured vehicles and land forces. The effectiveness and low-cost of the RPG made it the most widely used anti-armor weapon.

To give a solution to the growing threat, Plasan has designed innovative protection system to defeat even the most recent and advanced RPG models, without degrading the vehicle’s performance.

HIGH EFFICIENCY AND LIGHT WEIGHT PROTECTION

Taking into consideration the challenges in the battlefield environment where RPGs are typically used, Plasan places high emphasis on high protection, combined with low weight and easy replacement and maintenance. First and foremost, RPG protection must offer the highest protection for crew-members without decreasing the vehicle’s functionality and maneuverability in defense missions.
