"hot chemical reaction from boring through ..."
No, that would be a physical reaction.
No matter the measure, there will be a counter-measure. Basic fire and manuveur still applies.
Not sure this is a very good measure, especially since it doesn't seem to offer real advantage over a Kevlar-skinned HUMVEE.

These things sound pretty thin-skinned.
Wonder how much this grand idea cost. They were killing us with RPGs in Vietnam and Panama. You'd think they'd build something that at least could defeat that cheap, very common weapon.
