A titanium matrix composite laminate (42) includes alternating layers of a titanium matrix foil (12) and a fiber mat (14). The titanium matrix foil (12) is formed from a super alpha titanium alloy having a beta phase stabilizer equivalency of at least thirteen. The beta phase stabilizer is selected from the elements molybdenum, vanadium, niobium, tantalum, halfnium, tungsten or some combination thereof. The fiber mat (14) is formed of silicon carbide (SiC) and has a carbon coating. Once a layup (16) of the alternating layers is formed, it is placed in a mold (22). Heat and pressure are then applied in a step called consolidation (40). The result is a titanium matrix composite laminate (42).
