Are you sure about the Patria AMV? It obviously is designed with modular armor, but the Rosomak (with reduced armor protection) has a 3 mm spaced plate in front of 8 mm base armor. Rosomak-M has a 10 + 18 mm spaced array.

it's only basic structure armour, without any addons i will make version with addons later, if will have more info about it, don't have thickness of LAV25 and Stryker cermamic

Only Rosomak-M1. 10mm steel plates in spaced array were the applique armour from Rafael. Meanwhile indigenous solution which was in Rosomak-M1M uses ceramic and polymer layers inside the array.

Are there any good estimates for what a nominal 100mm armour tile consisting of

Front face (Outer shell Al + polyurea, but inconsequential thickness)

20 mm kevlar (prepreg)

40 mm alumina (small hex tiles)

40 mm kevlar (prepreg)

Rear face (same as front face -2mm Al, 0.8 mm polyurea)

 

Techology base is Korean/Japanese level body armour manufacturer so good precompression during manufacture but minimal obvious remainig precompression for in-use.....but use is IFV.

Photos from Marder 1A3 demilitarization process in Germany (armor has to be removed in certain areas, so law enforcement could defeat it), giving some visible references on armor thickness.

better resolution possible ? 

 

so sides will be 15mm/30deg---air--8mm-air16mm--4mm more or less KPVT B32 at PB
