Well, if you actually read the write-up and looked closer at the pics, you'd
see it has other defences, as follows:
1) Composite armour & ERA throughout
2) Large heat sink to dissipate heat (to counter heat-seaking ATGMs)

3) 2 launcher tubes on each side capable of shooting out ECMs, flares, and

some sort of robust machineguns witha large ammo drum (150 bullets). Anywaays,
