Protection
The hull and turret of the 2S25 self-propelled anti-tank gun is of all-welded aluminum armour without a composite skin. The vehicle is constructed with the crew compartment at the front, turret and fighting compartment in the center and power pack at the rear. Through the frontal arc of 40° left and right the armour provides protection against attack from 23 mm weapons at 500 m and through the remainder of the vehicle against attack from 7.62 mm firearms.

“The best protection parents can have against the nightmare of a daycare arrangement where someone might hurt their child is to choose a place that encourages parents to drop in at any time and that facilitates communication among parents using the program. If parents are free to drop in and if they exercise this right, it is not likely that adults in that place are behaving in ways that harm children.”
—Gwen Morgan (20th century)
