Abstract

A composite armor includes a ceramic substrate defining a frontside opposite a backside, where a thickness is defined extending between the frontside and the backside. A first tension-wrapped thermoplastic composite overwind is wrapped around the ceramic substrate about the frontside and backside. A first portion of the first overwind overlaps a second portion of the first overwind. The first and second portions of the first overwind are fixedly attached to one another utilizing a first localized heating. The first overwind includes a first tensile pretension. A backing is disposed about the backside of the ceramic substrate attached to the first overwind. The ceramic substrate has a higher modulus of elasticity in comparison to the overwind. The first overwind has a higher modulus of elasticity in comparison to the backing.
