I am not too sure if they'll let girls into tanks. IMO they're incapable of such a gritty and harsh job and trouble might airse if the T-95 has only 2 people in it and they are of different sexes

Armour
On vehicle protection, there are two approaches. There are up-armour packages like the Kontakt-5 EDZ. This is the heaviest explosive reactive armour (ERA) currently installed and is often referred to as 2nd generation, heavy-duty, or integral ERA. Where the conventional ERAs are only capable of defeating shaped-charge jets, Kontakt-5 can also defeat APFSDS rounds. With a fitment of Kontakt-5, long-rod penetrators can lose over 30% of their penetration potential and the protected vehicle becomes virtually immune to them (at least as "immune" as a chobham armoured tank). This type of ERA can be easily recognised as it gives the vehicle outfitted with it a distinct 'clam-shell' appearance. So, how would the main gun on an Abrams do against that? Badly, I suspect. Certainly not the “one shot, one kill” ratio that the yanks were used to in the Gulf.

I think this is really because other countries don't want to spend the money designing something that might not be useful in the end. They let us waste the money deciding if it is worthwhile or not, and then they just copy the general idea a few years later.
