#1 good for ambushes in the field, but hell on your own dis-mounted infantry and non conbatants in the area in a city.

#2 i'm guessing fck all tanks actually have the Arena or Arena type system fitted at all though do they being as they are russian millitary, perhaps 5 or 6 tanks maybe lol. I'm sure i read on tank net the USMC or amry not sure which one has a crash program ready if need be to set up a system like this. Didn't Israel also develop such a system that will be/is cabable of knocking down the dart from a SABOT round. still the infantry nearby or civilians near by when used is problem .

#3 Surely having a radar broadcasting on top of a tank just says "i am here kill me" like with anti radar asms i.e. ALARMS and HARMS. might be ok against low tech rpg's though

#4 perhaps a LPI type radar but agreed it will somewhat show your position to those who may have the knoladge and tech to monitor any electronic emmisions,
