ABSTRACT:
Armor plate (10) is disclosed as including at least one hardened steel plate (14,18) having triangular holes (16,20) arranged in a repeating pattern. Webs (40,42 and 44,46) are located between the triangular holes to provide lightweight armor without any ballistic gaps. The triangular holes (16,20) are shaped and positioned with respect to each other such that the webs (40,42 and 44,46) are generally straight. Each steel plate disclosed has its associated triangular hole (16,20) provided with the same size and shape as each other which are preferably in the shape of equilateral triangles.
