Explosive reactive armor, or ERA for short, is a pretty common form of protection for ground vehicles, mostly tanks and infantry fighting vehicles. It is mostly found on "eastern" tanks, but is also common on NATO vehicles too. But one common argument against ERA is that it is very dangerous for the nearby infantry, since it is literally an explosive mounted on a tank, often with a flier plate which is suppose to fly off to reduce the penetration of whatever hit the tank, there are many different types of ERA, but having an explosive filler is mandatory, since that is what makes ERA, ERA.
