Did the Germans use slat armour in WWII or are you refering to just stand off armour skirts? The Russians used it with their bed spring armour on their T-34s and the Soviets used it in Afghanistan on their tanks in the 1980s.
Slat armour is very effective against RPGs...the slats are a specific distance apart in order to shred the RPG warhead before it hits the AFV. |
