Looking at the Tankograd website and see a new book coming out on the M1A1 / A2 TUSK program and noticed a new curved reactive armour panels on turret front and hull sides. I want to get the book, but does anyone know a location for some more pictures of this?

Thank you.

That is the Abrams Reactive Armor Tiles (ARAT) Block II.

ARAT Block I was the flat tiles.

The new book will probably be your best source of images.

There are also images in this Tankograd book.....

Given they are both Tankograd books....there would probably be duplicate images in the article included in the book.

Shouldn't be long before we see an aftermarket set for the ARAT Block II.
