#1 As long as the tank is provided with reactive armor tiles and not empty boxes, as has been known to happen. If all the defensive systems are functional and switched on, the vehicle is very survivable.

That's a lot of "ifs."

Also, this TOW did not have a tandem warhead nor does this show how it would have done vs. a depleted uranium round.
