Definitions

• the armored steel may have a thickness of 5 to 20 mm.
• [C] and [Si] refer to contents (weight %) of carbon (C) and silicon (Si) included in the steel slab, and 0 is substituted when the corresponding element is not intentionally added.
• a residence time during the primary heat treatment may be 1.3t * 10 minutes (t: plate thickness (mm)) or more.
• a holding time during the secondary heat treatment may be 1.9t+10 minutes (t: plate thickness (mm)) or more.
• % represents a content of each element based on weight, unless otherwise particularly specified.
• Nitrogen (N) is an element which is favorable to improve strength of steel by forming precipitates in steel, but when a content of nitrogen (N) is more than a certain level, which may rather cause deterioration in toughness of steel.
• an upper limit of a content of nitrogen (N) may be limited to 0.006%. However, 0% may be excluded considering an inevitably contained level.
• an upper limit of the content of molybdenum (Mo) may be limited to 0.5%.
• the upper limit of the content of molybdenum (Mo) may be 0.48%, and more preferably, the upper limit of the content of molybdenum (Mo) may be 0.45%.
• Boron (B) is an element effectively contributing to strength improvement by increasing quenching properties of steel even with a small addition amount thereof.
• 0.0002% or more of boron (B) may be contained.

• an upper limit of the content of boron (B) may be limited to 0.005%.
• the upper limit of the content of boron (B) may be 0.004%, and more preferably, the upper limit of the content of boron (B) may be 0.003%.
• Ca an element having a good binding force with sulfur (S) and producing CaS on the periphery (around) MnS, thereby suppressing elongation of MnS to improve toughness in a direction perpendicular to a rolling direction.
• CaS produced by adding Ca has an effect of increasing corrosion resistance under a humid external environment.
• 0.0005% or more of Ca may be included.
• a lower limit of a content of calcium (Ca) may be 0.001%.

Since these impurities are known to any person skilled in the common manufacturing process, the entire contents thereof are not particularly mentioned in the present specification. In addition, further addition of effective ingredients other than the above-mentioned ingredients is not entirely excluded.
• the inventors of the present disclosure have conducted in-depth research on a method capable of securing high-hardness characteristics and excellent low-temperature impact toughness of a steel sheet at the same time, and have derived that it is effective to control not only a content range of each respective alloy composition, but also a relative content range of the specific alloy composition included in the steel sheet.
• not only the content range of each respective alloy composition included in the steel sheet is controlled to be within a certain range, but also the relative content range of carbon (C) and silicon (Si) is controlled to be within a certain range, as illustrated in [Relational Expression 1], so that high hard characteristics and excellent low-temperature impact toughness may be effectively compatible.
• 10*[C]*[Si] defined by Relational Expression 1 may be 6.0 or more.
• Armored steel of the present disclosure having the alloy composition described above may have a tempered martensite base structure including retained austenite as a microstructure, and may further include other inevitable structures.
