With the increase of operations in Urban Warfare the Israelis have adapted a number of specialized Active Protection Systems for use on their Merkava's, Namer's, and all the other stuff they have.

Merkava's I've seen with Trophy, that has actually been confirmed to work in combat defeating RPG-7D's, and a wierd looking thing most are refering to as a "Droid", don't know all that much about it.

Iron Fist is to be added to thier Namer-Merkava APC hybrid.


My question is are their any manufactures or readily available directions online to buy these APS's or directions on how to make your own?

Or is it time to demand it from the manufactures as these types of systems are becoming more and more common on today's battlefield.

ET and Voyager sell the Droid. They listed under the name Windbreaker Protection System. Hardcorps models made a droid but those would be really hard to find. There is one other manufacturer, but I can't remember the name. Someone else might

Storm Miniatures was supposed to release the Trophy System but that didn't make it I guess. I am looking at scratching the Trophy system on my Academy Mk. IV LIC. I'm not sure how I'm going to accomplish this yet as measurements and detail pics have been hard for me to come up with.
