The ERA is mainly used to increase the protection of main battle tank against modern ammunition. The Duplet protection system "Duplet" does not have analogues in the world. This armour can provide reliable protection of combat vehicles and stationary objects from the tandem cumulative munitions, armour-piercing sub-caliber projectiles and self-forming munitions of "striking-cannonbal” type.
The Duplet is a new development of Explosive Reactive armour using explosive materials sandwiched between simple steel plates, the Ukrainian engineers decided on using several linear shaped charges (LCS). The LCSs consist of either copper or aluminium and have a classic "half moon" shape. In the hollow center section, high explosives are inserted.
