Based on more advanced rules for reactive armor from 3rd edition and assuming late TL 8/ early TL 9 plate technology I can see each charge doing only about 8d+2 cr ex damage per charge but given how they're being used I'd count it as a contact explosion. It should also give about DR 1,000 vs shape charges, half that against piercing damage and 1/5th as well against all other types of damage and weight 110lbs and cost about $200 per square foot of coverage.
