The increase of the number of layers in spaced armor increases the physical damage and destabilization of jets and kinetic penetrators, so it is common in more modern armor to use successive layers alternating between softer (air, aluminum or plastic) and harder (RHA, SHS) layers. With multiple layers the likelihood of bounce in case of kinetic projectiles is also increasing, and SC jets loss from their material when come through between layers with different density and their performance lowered due to the effects pressure and velocity changes (foreshortening) on their concentration. Thus later T-72B and T-90 armors used 7 layered spaced armor (with hardened steel plates) in order to achieve much stronger protection in cost of minimum weight increase.
