Abstract

The invention provides a modular armored vehicle system comprising an armored combat vehicle chassis (2) having a plurality of openings and a plurality of composite armor plates (4) for absorbing and dissipating kinetic energy from high velocity, armor-piercing projectiles (12), each of the plates (4) being adapted for attachment to the chassis (2) and sized to cover at least one of the openings wherein each of the plates comprises a single layer of bodies (6) which are directly bound and retained in plate form by a solidified material (7) wherein a majority of each of the bodies (6) is in direct contact with at least four adjacent bodies (6), wherein the solidified material (7) and the plate (4) are elastic and wherein the bodies (6) have a specific gravity of at least 2.4 and are made of a ceramic material. <IMAGE>

Claims (9)

16 158,045/2 WHAT IS CLAIMED IS:
1. A modular armored vehicle system comprising an armored combat vehicle chassis having a plurality of openings and a plurality of composite armor plates for absorbing and dissipating kinetic energy from high velocity, armor-piercing projectiles, each of said plates being adapted for attachment to said chassis and sized to cover at least one of said openings, wherein each of said plates comprises a single layer of bodies which are directly bound and retained in plate form by a solidified material wherein a majority of each of said bodies is in direct contact with at least four adjacent bodies, wherein the solidified material and the plate are elastic, wherein said bodies have a specific gravity of at least 2.4 and are made of a ceramic material, wherein said plate constitutes an outer, impact receiving panel of a multilayered armor panel further comprising an inner layer adjacent to said outer plate, comprising a second ballistic panel, wherein said outer plate serves to deform and shatter an impacting high velocity armor-piercing projectile and said second ballistic panel is adapted to retain any remaining fragments from said projectile and from said bodies and to absorb remaining energy from said fragments, and wherein the bodies in said plates are in the form of pellets, each having at least one axis of at least 9 mm length and each of a majority of said pellets is in direct contact with at least four adjacent pellets in the same layer to provide mutual lateral confinement therebetween and said at least one axis is substantially perpendicular to the outer, impact-receiving face of said plate. 17 158,045/2
2. A modular armored vehicle system according to claim 1 comprising a plurality of interchangeable plates, a first plurality of said plates having pellets sized to absorb and dissipate kinetic energy from high velocity armor-piercing 12.7 mm - 14.5 mm projectiles, a second plurality of said plates having pellets sized to absorb and dissipate kinetic energy from high velocity armor-piercing 14.5 mm - 30 mm projectiles, and a third plurality of said plates having pellets sized to absorb and dissipate kinetic energy from high velocity armor-piercing projectiles of over 30 mm.
3. A modular armored vehicle system according of claim 1 wherein the bodies in said plates have a regular geometric cross-sectional area.
4. A modular armored vehicle system according of claim 1 wherein the bodies in said plates have at least one convexly curved outwardly facing end face.
5. A modular armored vehicle system according of claim 1 wherein the bodies in said plates have at least one circular cross-section.
6. A modular armoured vehicle system according of claim 1 comprising a third backing layer for absorbing trauma.
7. A modular armored vehicle system according of claim 6 wherein said third layer is formed of a polymeric matrix composite with reinforcing fibers. 18 158,045/2
8. A modular armored vehicle system according of claim 7 wherein the reinforcing fibers are selected from the group consisting of carbon fibers, aramid fibers and glass fibers.
9. A modular armored vehicle system according of claim 6 wherein said third backing layer is made of a metal material. For the Applicant WOLFF, BREGMAN AND GOLLER by: t.
