Summary / Abstract (Note) | Much of the recent development of active protection systems (APSs) has been focused on the defeat of short-range, shaped-charge anti-tank weapons, and in particular of the ubiquitous RPG-7 rocket-propelled grenade. One of the APSs that addresses this threat is the Iron Fist being developed by Israel Military Industries. |
