Not aware of any M1 with reactive armour. So,its an impossible question.

Latest upgrade ? of M1 has reactive armour (ie has explosive with detonator..) on top of passive armour........... in Discovery - no mistake about it

Ok, not too sure about that. I did check the info out there, and yes, there is a M1 ARATS upgrade program. The ERA is on the side of the turrets and on the track skirts. Not on the frontal slab. But generally speaking, ERA defeats chemical weapons, eg RPGs and what not. Other then a vulnerable part on the rear of the M1, newer versions of the M1s and the M1 SEP with depleted uranium armour has not been defeated by any ATGM. I would say the latest version even without the ERA would not be defeated by any ATGM. However, it might be defeated by a penetrator rod. And so far, only a very few M1 have been upgraded with ERA.

APS is much better than reactive armour. I much rather have APS then just ERA.

When the rpg and other missles are blown up and taken out before they reach the tank, and the people inside the tank.

Chinese MBTs all fortified by their own designed APS. And only now USA starting to implement that with borrowed stuff from Jowdies.

The Chinese happily copied the Terrex APS when they stole it for those few months

The China North Industries Group Corporation (NORINCO Group) has shown for the first time its new GL5 active protection system (APS) designed for main battle tanks during the show in Baotou in the Inner Mongolia autonomous region on Wednesday morning.

According to the NORINCO, the new GL5 APS can provide Chinese armour more reliable protection against the threat for the tanks on the battlefields, including light anti-tank weapons, anti-tank guided missiles (ATGM). The system providing full 360-degree horizontally and 20-degree in vertical direction vehicle protection.

The GL5 APS uses a special radar to detect incoming warheads. Upon detection, a defensive rocket is fired that detonates near the inbound threat, destroying it before it hits the tank or vehicle.

The Norinco’s APS system consists of a multi-mission, fire-control radar that detects and tracks incoming threats and launcher for defensive rockets.

Experts said that the new GL5 active protection system will be installed on the new ZTZ-99 main battle tanks.

About 230 officers from more than 50 foreign nations, mostly military attaches to Beijing and procurement officials, attended the show in Baotou, which included live-fire performances by battle tanks and antitank missiles at a shooting range owned by Inner Mongolia First Machinery, a subsidiary of Norinco.

Warning to mudland and chinkland to not fuck with us. The SAF's armour is more than enough to utterly destroy you. Heinz Guderian would be proud of our panzers.

Gunner Corporal Heng already warned that he will engage and destroy you if you dare fuck with the SAF.
