Joint and Modular Protection System

摘要

A joint is provided for connecting two or more armoured panels of a modular protection structure. The joint has an elongate body, a first channel extending along and within the elongate body, for receiving an edge of one of the armoured panels, and a second channel extending along and within the elongate body, for receiving an edge of another armoured panel. One or more armoured strike plates are provided which substantially cover an area between the edge of the armoured panel which is received within the first channel and the edge of the armoured panel which is received within the second channel. This makes it easy to join two armoured panels, for example by slotting them into the first and second channels of the joint. An armoured strike plate is provided as part of the joint to inhibit ballistic leakage through the area of the joint between the armoured panels.
