Armoured Farmer, in reference to both the stereotype that all Cornish born men are all farmers at heart, and the Royal Armoured Corps (RAC) of the British Army. Any Cornishman that joins 2nd Royal Tank Regiment (2RTR) will be known as an 'Armoured Farmer'. This is due to the tank being a substitute for his tractor. The term is only really used in reference to any ex-3RTR and currently serving 2RTR soldiers. Officers are seen as far to educated to be considered farmers.

Initially designed to strengthen tanks, a reactive armour, that explodes when hit by either kinetic energy or high explosive antitank (HEAT) projectiles, disrupting the round, and degrading its penetration. Explosive reactive armour is most effective against HEAT rounds.
The new Russian Kontakt-5 ERA is not completely destroyed when hit - it still functions as armour after exploding.
Anti-tank weapons work by piercing the armour and exploding inside, thus killing the crew.
Explosive reactive armour counteracts the force of the explosion by creating another explosion on itself. Against shaped charged missiles, this type of armour really comes into it's own.
The design was patented by Manfred Held in the 1970's.
