At the moment, heavy steel armor is used for covering military equipment, which, although it provides good protection, significantly reduces the maneuverability of the vehicles. A group of scientists from the University of North Carolina has been dealing with this problem for several years now - several years ago it developed the CMF composite metal foam, which provides the same level of protection but weighs half as much. Recently, researchers have improved armor, slightly changing its structure.
The secret of strength and lightness of the above armor lies in the structure of the metal plate, which is full of air pockets. The researchers found that by adding armor with several layers of other materials, they can achieve an even greater level of protection. So, having covered the front panel with ceramics, placing CMF metal foam behind it and closing the back part with an aluminum plate, the group created armor against bullets of the 50th caliber and armor-piercing projectiles.
