Description:

This is explosive reactive armor designed to preemptively detonate incoming threats to protect your creation. It is easy to implement and is activated using one button.

This setup uses a radar, altimeter, and speed sensor to determine if there is an incoming threat, if there is it will automatically select one of three panels to launch at the threat when it is within range. These panels are 3×3 and serve a dual purpose, they function as regular armor against conventional weapons such as autocannons and small arms fire. However, they are also able to defend your creation against missiles and rockets. This means you can save weight on your creation while also being extra protected against many common threats.

To use this simply copy and paste the row of panels and radar + altimeter in the current arrangement onto your creation. Next add the speed sensor, buzzer, micro controller, and button anywhere you would like. Then all thats left is to connect all the logic.

If you decide to use this and upload the creation please credit my work.

Please leave any ideas in the comments and Ill be sure to get around to them! 🙂
