See full text

An armor component including a body including a material component configured to undergo a phase change upon a projectile impact. The material component may also have a ready state defining a first lattice structure configured to change from the ready state to an absorbed state defining a second lattice structure different from the first lattice structure. The material component may also have a ready state defining a first density and configured to change from the ready state to an absorbed state defining a second density, wherein the first density is less than the second density. In a particular aspect, the material component, in combination with a first component on or adjacent to the material component, can be configured to prevent pentration of a projectile having an energy of 4,000 J upon impact with a strikeface of the material component.
