Abstract

This relates to measures for protection against striking and penetrating objects. To provide ballistic protection measures that are as light and efficient as possible while having a compact design, a ballistic protective component for protection against penetrating foreign objects comprises a first layer and a second layer, which are mutually spaced by an intermediate layer, that together with a plurality of reinforcement elements, form a sandwich component. Further, an intermediate sheet made of core material is arranged in the intermediate layer. At least one sheet is arranged in the intermediate layer. The ballistic protective material is a fibrous sheet material. In another example, the ballistic protective material comprises dilatant material. The reinforcement elements are tensile and compressive resistant and extend from the first to the second layer through the at least one sheet of ballistic protective material, and, in one example, through the at least one intermediate sheet.
