Re: UK IFV Warrior, new infomation.
Alright, I didn't know about these, WW2 is not quite my forte. Was that meant to fence off German hand-held rockets like the Panzerfaust? I thought there weren't that any tank HEAT rounds at the time.
Vietnam RPG fences were just the older example I knew of, and I wanted to point out that spaced grill armor wasn't a new idea.
Anyway any old material was fitted onto armor in conflicts all over the world, since WW2 propulsed HEAT warheads and steel armor have been employed on many occasions.
So sandbags, planks, tyres, etc. can be used to some extent. What would be useful to know is the precise efficiency of these things in terms of armouring.
