Vehicle armour comprises an assembly of an outer armour pack, A an air gap B of between 1 mm and 10 mm, an inner armour pack C and a high energy absorbing layer D. The outer armour pack A comprises an outermost outer fibre reinforced composite protective layer 1 of at least 1mm thickness, an outer ceramic armour layer 2 to protect against small arms and provide initial fragmentation of a penetrator and an inner fibre reinforced composite support layer 3 to absorb residual energy from small arms. The outermost outer fibre reinforced composite protective layer 1 is configured to protect the outer ceramic armour layer 2 against minor impacts. The inner armour pack C comprises an outer fibre reinforced composite protective layer 5 of at least 0.5mm thickness, an inner segmented ceramic armour layer 6 configured to provide the majority of protection against a penetrator and an innermost inner fibre reinforced composite layer 7 of at least 10mm thickness. The outer fibre reinforced composite protective layer 5 is configured to protect the inner segmented ceramic armour layer 6 against damage during handling or maintenance of the armour. The high energy absorbing layer D has a thickness of at least 25mm and is configured to mitigate the effect of residual fragments defeating the outer and inner armour packs A, B. The assembly is configured to be mounted in spaced relationship to the hull of a vehicle 11. |
