Question armoured vehicles

Guys,

Here in Northern Ireland all of the armoured army (and police) vehicles (and watch towers and police stations) all have a layer of steel mesh around them to detonate RPG's before they hit the actual vehicle (or tower) armour.

I never see that on vehicles in Iraq. I would like to have it on a Hummer if I was in it especially with RPGs being so popular.

How come they dont have them?

Has the armour improved and they are no longer required?
