Advanced Armor Technologies:

Abstract

This effort matures, fabricates, integrates and evaluates advanced ground vehicle armor systems such as advanced passive kinetic energy armor, explosive reactive armor, electromagnetic armor, and adaptive armor. The goal is to optimize armor system technologies and integration methodologies to reduce overall armor system weight; create and mature scalable / modular / common armor system integration standards for the advanced armor technologies; create armor system test & evaluation standards for advanced armor technologies and leverages the standards for armor component and armor system maturation; refines armor modeling and simulation system engineering process to incorporate advances in armor technologies. This effort is done in coordination with efforts in PEs 0602105A, 0602601A, 0602618A, and 0708045A.
