Abstract
The ceramic-metal composite armor and its confinement of ceramic are introduced. The characterization of ballistic performance and the effects of three confinements(axial, lateral and three-dimensional) on ballistic performance and anti-ballistic mechanisms are reviewed. The metal-encased ceramic composite armors fabricated by metal casting are proposed owing to their potential applications. It is pointed out that the studies on characterization of overall ballistic performances, dynamic characteristics and structural design optimization of new ceramic composite armors should be enhanced.
