Anything that makes Ruzzian invaders go boom is good in my book!
Also, aside from cluster munitions clearly having some success against these vehicles, wouldn’t cluster munitions compromise the operators of these vehicles as well?
it’s in the name: DP in DPICM stands for dual purpose - frag + shaped charge. shaped charge big enough to penetrate top armour of about everything armoured, and fragmentation for everything else. effective against materiel, civilian vehicles, armor, entrenched soldiers, even more so in the open, as a counterbattery fire, in SEAD, probably more. btw, the cope cages would actually protect tank against DPICM, because small jet like this will disperse over large distance. won’t help if that DPICM element falls somewhere outside the cope cage and disables engine or driver
