- The Russians have a system that is designed to shoot incoming anti-tank
- missiles. It comprises a small radar and several explosive boxes mounted on
- the tank. The radar senses a missile and then detonates one of the boxes which
- are shotgun like in effect. I think it's just a prototype but I also heard of
- a similiar system using a .50 cal machine gun.
