AusShield - Is an entirely new material
invented by us. Final stage testing (under an agreement
with the Australian and US governments) has now
been completed and this material is being evaluated
by customers in the U.S.A
Whereas all other ceramic armors are parasitic and
are attached to the hull of a vehicle, AusShield
is structural and can be used like a metal to comprise
the hull of a tank or ship or the shell of a bunker
or hangar. In an environment of terrorism it could
be used to armor an embassy or vital installations
such as power stations.
AusShield is one third the weight of steel for the
same protection and is the only ceramic that can
defeat armor piercing, shaped-charge and high explosive
projectiles. |
 RESULTS |
Most of the recent ballisic testing
of AusShield has been done under a DSTO/ARL Government
collaborative program and therefore the results
are security classified and can not be publicly
disclosed.
However, some early ballistic trials were conducted
outside of this program and can be disclosed.
Tests done against AusShield using shaped charges
are discussed on this webpage in the commercial-industry
customers section |
