I don't understand why this thread was moved in this section. Is it because it's impossible to implement this idea in ArmA?

There is an old submarine simulator covering the Cold War events and I find its name really cool. Too bad you can't "borrow" it. It's called "Red Storm Rising" and it has a nice cover too.

Maybe ARENA, but Drozd was installed on navy T-55's in the early 1980's and CWC takes place in 1985. Anyway, having such system on your tank makes a huge difference. I've seen a video of ARENA APS reducing a Shturm ATGM's penetrating power to nothing. Here it is: http://perso.numericable.fr/vfofanov/Tanks/IMAGES/arena003.avi

Are you a beta tester for Armed Assault? PS According to this link: The T-90 also uses the Shtora-1 countermeasures suite as well as the ARENA hard kill Anti-Missile defensive system. Moreover, according to Wikipedia: The Arena Active Protection System (APS) is an active countermeasure system developed at Russia's Kolomna-based Engineering Design Bureau to provide anti-missile defense for T-90 tanks. Then why can't I find a picture of a T-90 using ARENA?!?

If this is not already a feature, I would like to see it added someday because I know this has never been done in Cold War Crisis. For example, even the earliest T-80 model could fire the 9K112 Kobra missile system.

The lack of anti-missile countermeasures in Cold War Crisis made any tank a deathtrap. I think it would add a lot to the gameplay if this feature was made available. An example of Active Protection System is the Russian ARENA, normally found on the T-90. It consists of a small radar used to detect any incoming projectiles and several protective grenades which are fired in a salvo in front of the incoming projectile (usually a missile) to either eliminate or reduce the effect of the shaped charge. edit: pasted the wrong url to the picture. Thanks Jezz.
