Rosoboronexport has published a new episode of testing the Russian active protection system Arena-M on T-72B3M tanks. Initially, the Arena-M active protection system could only destroy horizontally flying ATGMs. But in the new footage, the upper part of the video, the Arena-M active protection system now protects the tank from ATGMs flying into the upper hemisphere of the tank. It is not yet known whether the Arena-M active protection system will be able to destroy FPV drones. It is worth noting that currently no active protection system for tanks, including the popular Israeli Trophy active protection, can protect a tank from FPV drones. The Arena-M active protection system has begun to be installed on Russian tanks; the first T-72 tanks have already been spotted in combat units. Earlier, the T-90MS Proryv tank with Arena-M active protection system was also shown at the test site.
