    T-90 A

    No, that's right, this is a deep modernization of the Yugoslav M-84 in Serbia with the assistance of Russia.

    It is easy to distinguish it from the T-90A in the lower glacis part

    The 90A have lgp like this:

    On the T-90A there are mounts for engineering mechanisms, but on the M-84 they are not.

    That's ARAT 2, which is also ERA.

    ARAT II this is ARAT ERA with cover of ceramic plates. 
    But the turret's sides have no ERA elements. Because you may be right:

    Covers the hull ARAT 1 and the bare turret side, thus again suggesting that the turret side is equivalent to the ARAT 1 skirts.

    But the turret side cant protect against tandem missiles, i think, and for this they just use plates only.

    Who is using PSO kit? Are there any ARAT-2 equipped Abramses anywhere outside Iraq? Never saw any in photos from Europe but I may have missed them. 

    In Afghanistan, Danish and Canadian tanks were equipped with full side armor modules. This is not PSO, but smth like it. 
    The fact is that the United States and Europe have the opportunity to equip their tanks and IFV with modular side protection.
