Are there any tanks with active dynamic armour in service now?
Thanks, but I meant the armour that so to say jumps up and destroys the anti-tank rocket at a distance. I know that in Russia such thing is called Arena, but I'm not sure if they have bought it for the army. I just wanted to know if similar systems are already used in other militaries.

The Soviet T-90's for one are fitted with Kontakt-5 E.R.A.!!
They also retrofitted previous models of tank to incorporate E.R.A. as well.
The concept of E.R.A. was first thought of by an Israeli however, they have been exploring and utilising the concept on a whole array of different tanks and armoured vehicles for years.
Google some of the armour used by the Israeli's for more details.
Enjoy.

I believe the Israeli Magach 7 still uses its active Blazer armour array.
