Iron Fist though, is claimed to be able to deflect KE rounds. It use explosive projectile shot at the incoming rounds. Explosion should be able to deflect KE rounds.

Again basicly this Iron Fist works like ARENA. Improved target acquisition though. And tank caliber kinetic ammo can be anything from basic AP to APFSDS, so I am not investing any money on it.. yet

How often does the CIWS gear in WinSPMBT actually defeat an ATGM? Is it an 80% success rate? Anyway to get more than 2 shots?
