My entry for the "Build a better H.I.S.S." contest. I looked at the "tank" with the enclosed cockpit and all I could think was "Boy, that's a sucky place to have to sit..." A driver must spend the whole day with his ears ringing from all the small arms, lasers, rockets, missiles and tank rounds that just bounce off that nose. So I figured the first sensible thing COBRA would do with the knowledge that battle-testing brings would be to slap some reactive armor on the nose.
The armor is simple styrene sheet cut and filed to shape. It's mounted using square styrene rod.
