Abstract
A composite material for armor plating with improved multihit behavior includes at least: a front layer, facing the impact side and mounted on a first sub-layer, the front layer including a plurality of neighboring front-layer segments with form-fit contact between adjacent segments; a rear layer facing away from the impact side; and a supporting layer disposed between the front and rear layers. The supporting layer includes a plurality of supporting-layer segments, which present a surface parallel to the front layer whose area is the same as or less than the area of the front-layer segments parallel to the front layer.
