ERA (Explosive Reactive Armour) is a type of modern armor, developed to increase the survivability of combat vehicles against shaped-charge and anti-tank ammunition. Russian forces widely use ERA blocks such as Kontakt-1, Kontakt-5, or Relikt on various vehicle types, including during conflicts in Afghanistan, Chechnya, and recent military operations in Eastern Europe.
