Is there any way to check how many APS shots left?

Is there any way to check how many APS (Active Protection System) shots left?

No. Unless.... fire more missiles at the AFV until it stops intercept6ing them - then you know you are out.

Well, sounds like a good plan

thx

I think there is a way to tell if a unit is out of APS. Under the vehicle subsystems panel it usually lists the APS. If the box is green, you have it, and if its not, then you don't.

My understanding is subsystems panel only tells you if this equipment is function or not. If the APS is out of ammo, it may be green still?

Oh , wait a minute. Smoke grenade launchers can be a good example. It will turn to grey on subsystems panel after running out of smoke grenade.  hmmm....

Here is the test. 

After intercept 4 9K114 ATGM, the Trophy APS on Abrams turned to dark grey. The 5th and 6th ATGM hit Abrams
