Transparent armor for the defense industry.

High transparent armoring levels.

Transparent protection against ballistics, blast fragments, and explosions to keep defense personnel safe during military operations. Crystal company supplies ballistic glass for military vehicles that are deployed for various purposes. Hence, our ballistic windows are produced to withstand severe ballistic force. 

Ballistic screens for side windows, windscreens, and peephole vision applications of armored vehicles are all available from NATO STANAG 4569 Level 1 to 4. We can manufacture the screens for bent and flat applications that are highly transparent and of exceptional optical quality.

Consistent ballistic testing with Extreme Temperatures.

The combination of properties of high ballistic performance and the lowest thicknesses of our glass are unparalleled. Transparent armor performs in ballistic levels AEP 55 STANAG II with 50 millimeters and STANAG III is achieved with glass of 82 millimeters.

In each military grade ballisic levels, glass compositions are predominantly tested including conditioning of the glass test samples in high temperature ranges of -32 °C and +50 °C. This is to ensure that the transparent armor has the qualified properties to hold the bullet in the extreme atmospheres in the circumstance of military operations. 

Crystal Company does not compromise in materials when in comes to military protection. Ballistic glass with extreme temperature resistance (ETR) is not to be confused with Operational Temperatures, which simply means that the glass will not spontaneously break or delaminate outside, being completely outside the context of ballistic performance.

Broad technical possibilities.

The ballistic glass can be upgraded for additional performance of the glass. Examples of technical upgrades are heating with transparent coating or tungsten wires for de-fogging, and de-icing. Crystal Company is  able to supply the glass inside a frame out of military grade armored steel as a complete Transparent Armor system to support precise fitting to the vehicle. The features extend in options to EMI-shielding with attenuation on several frequencies, and gunports to counterstrike. 

Our transparent armor for military vehicles is supplied with consistent quality under our brand CRYSTAL ARMOR. With Crystal Company, you can expect your ballistic glass at fast development and quick processing. Visit our Crystal Armor page to learn more about armoring and technical possibilities of ballistic glazing for your Military applications.
