Abstract
A ballistic laminate structure in sheet form includes first and second arrays of high performance, unidirectionally-oriented fiber bundles having a tensile strength greater than 7 grams per denier. The second array of fiber bundles is cross-plied at an angle to the first array of fiber bundles. A polymeric film resides between the first and second cross-plied arrays of fiber bundles to adhere the first and second arrays of fiber bundles together without substantial penetration of the film into the fiber bundles or through the laminate structure from one side to the other.
